Rating: Summary: codi a. per. 9 Review: I just finished reading the book A Dance for Three, written by Louise Plummer. This book is about a young girl, Hannah Ziebarth, who loses her virginity to her first love, Milo Fabiano, and gets pregnant. On top of that, she has been through a lot of changes in the past two years. Her father suddenly passed away and now her menatlly ill mother won't leave the house or pick up the phone. Hannah is left to deal with taking care of her mom, the house, herself, and pretty soon, a new baby. This is a lot of pressure for a 15 year old to deal with and one night after Milo denies being the father of the baby and beats her up, she has a "psychotic episode." Before she knows it, she's shiped off to the psych ward of the local hospital. There she meets "Poppy Seed," her drunken roommate. Together they try to survive hospitalization and help eachother understand the meaning of life. This book deals with teen pregnancy, mental illnesses, love, friendship and family. i thought it was an excellent book because it discussed some issues teens deal with today, and the author used wonderful imagery to help you understand the emotions of the story. i think the plot was well devloped and never once did I not understand what was going on. I really enjoyed reading this book and felt that many teenagers could realte. I strongly reccommend this book.
Rating: Summary: I LOVE this book! Review: I love this book! I bought it about a year ago, and I have read it four times I enjoyed it so much! This is a really great book, and you just cant set it down once you start. I really reccomend this book if you like books that hook you in and dont let you go.
Rating: Summary: A Dance for Three-Wonderful Book Review: I really enjoyed this book, at first I thought it was going to be a really boaring book and was sorry i had gotten it but I read more and started o develop a care for 15 year old Hannah who finds herslef pregnant by her boyfriend Milo. He abandons her in an alley after beating her up. The pregnancy and and other problems such as the death of her father and her sick mother land Hannah in an institution. There with the help of friends and her therapist she is able to put the pieces of her life back together. the father of her baby Milo is an arogant jerk and he gets what he deserves at the end while Hannah gets a better life, a new self discovery and happiness. I really enjoyed this book it was very touching and I would recomend it to anyone who likes realistic fiction and warm heart touchers.
Rating: Summary: I Really LIked This Book Review: I really liked this book, because it showed a young girl that finds out she's pregnant and how she deals with it, and all the problems that arise from it; like how her boyfriend doesn't believe her and leaves her, her mom is basically crazy, and she misses her dad who is deceased. She is also faced with a question on what she is going to do with the baby. I also think she really finds out who she is and what she wants out of life. It was really good and it was based in Salt Lake City. It was a very good book.
Rating: Summary: A dance for one. Review: I thought that it was a rather good book, but it needed to be seen through more than Hannah's eyes. Maybe if we saw it a a different way we would have thought different for Milo, her mom, or anyone else. Ionly gave it one star because I feel that is all that it is worth. Very well written but not enough was going on. The author took it one thing at a time at a medium pace. Not to exciting. I had to read this book for an english class, so you can tell by my review that it was not a book of my choice. But for being a book that was required, I had to read it. I was alright.
Rating: Summary: review Review: I thought the book was good and that it deals with the world as it stands today society and that I think young ladies shouldn't get preagant when they are young and wait till they really love some and they want to stay with them forever
Rating: Summary: A great read! Review: Louise Plummer's A Dance For Three (32511-8) tells of Hannah, who finds herself pregnant and abandoned by the boyfriend she thought she loved. After a breakdown she slowly learns new lessons about caring for herself and others -and accepting the help of a long-absent mother.
Rating: Summary: An amazing story full of the truth that no one faces Review: Not very many people face and recognize how many teenagers face pregnancy. But Plummer has told so trufully a story of one of the many teenagers that are told that they are pregnant. I read this book in two days because I couldn't put it down, not even to eat and sleep! I love how Plummer has told this story with not only two peoples point of views, but three. This book is truly amazing!
Rating: Summary: A Dance for Three Review: The book "A Dance for Three" was both boring and interesting. boring because in some parts it was slow and made no sense, but in most parts i couldn't put it down. What i liked about the book was that it showed what a young girl can go through if she gets pregnant at a early age. You can make your life a living hell, because your not ready for whats coming. You also find out that not all the guys are the same. Some will leave you and some will stay with you, so you should know the guy before you go further in your relationship. The thing that I disliked about the book was that Hannah, the girl who gets pregnant in the book, gave her baby up for adoption. It was so stupid of her to do such a thing because she went through many things just to keep the baby and at the end she gave him for adoption. I think that young teenagers should read this book. Boys because they can understand what a girl can go through if they dont take responsiabiltys. And girls would understand that being a mother is not an easy job. Yes, i would read another book by this author.
