The Hollow is the first book of two, about a girl called Abbey living a tough life after her best friend, Kristen, disappeared. Although Kristen had never been found: her parents held a funeral to mark her death. At the funeral Abbey met a boy called Caspian. Several weeks after the funeral Abbey kept bumping into him and eventually they spoke. To Abbey, Caspian was a normal person who didn’t go to her school but he had a secret, he was a ghost. Abbey and Caspian carried on meeting up and eventually they fell in love. The most interesting part is when Abbey told her parents about Caspian being a ghost, they thought she was going insane, Abbey moved to her Aunt Marjorie’s for a while, until she could realise that he was really dead. The book ended on a cliff hanger.
I find Caspian the most interesting character because he is an illusion for Abbey. Caspian is described with white-blonde hair and a black streak standing out amongst his pale hair colour. Caspian tells Abbey he is there to help her get through life without Kristen but that’s not the only reason he is there for. He says no-one can see him apart from her which must mean something.
