Rating: Summary: an excellent suspense novel. Review: An excellent suspense novel, About David deals with teens in the 90's coping with a close friend's suicide. Lynn, the main character, has just lost her long time best friend due to suicide. Horrible as this is , more terrible is that he not only killed himself, he also murdered his parents. Jeffery, close friend of David, cannot cope with all the pressure in school, all the rumors, and his only friend's death. He has a nervous breakdown. The school is in chaos; newspaper reports spread fake rumors. Lynn is terribly saddened. Luckily she has her friend Steffi, parents, and shrink, Dr. Collins, to help her feel better. The best part of this novel is when David's notebook and diaries are suddenly found in Lynn's attic. She has to read them through and find out why David actully killed himself. I personally enjoyed reading this novel; it caught my attention. It's an easy to understand novel, with interesting problems going on. It's clear and very exciting to read. Read it , I recommend it!.
Rating: Summary: Very moving and filled with much emotion for each character. Review: Lynn handled things as I would have handled them Reading the story really took me right into the story with Lynn as she tried to understand why David had doen what he did. Her devastation led her to fall apart. Her relationship with David never went away but the fact that he was gone made her realize that he wasn't going to come back. Her last dream of David let her know that he was at peace for once.
Rating: Summary: David Review: This book is great book because it gets you to feel like your best friend has just died. She has to deal with everyone at school and herself. This book is for ages 11-16. It is about a girl named Lynn whose best friend, David, kills his parents then himself. She just shuts down after it happens. She can't remember what they talked about the day he did it. She can't sit in the cafeteria or ride her bike past his house. She also has to see a shrink, named Dr. Collins. She must adjust to life without David. Will she ever get over David? Just read the book "About David."
