Dear Nobody
I read "Dear Nobody" by Berlie Dohrety.This story is about two teenagers who are very much in love with eachother and they are having a normal relationship until they find out about Helen's pregnancy. Her being pregnant really changes everything between them. Helen starts to distance herself from not only Chris, but from school, her family and friends. She starts to write "Dear Nobody" letters and she starts to write in a diary. Her notes and letters are the main content in the book. Helen's mother isn't very supportive of Helen and the baby. Actually the only time she ever
During the whole time you're reading, you get a feeling that something drastic will happen in the end, but it doesn't, which made me a bit disappointed. When Helen breaks up with Chris he gets so depressed that he goes off to France on a biking tour. You become very close to Helen and you feel with her. But it's a good book to read if you have time to pass. And she could have written more about what happened after the baby was born. Chris goes of to the University as he planned but keeps in contact with Helen and the child and he keeps writing letters to his child for her to read when she gets older. He runs of to the Hospital and finds Helen and his newborn child in her arms. When you're reading it you get this hopeless feeling that it will never work out for them. Maybe it could even give guidance for lost teenagers who are expecting a child. She also forbids Chris to call Helen or to come over to the house to visit her. It's not the best book I've read, but it is ok. Chris is still so much in love with Helen that he can't face the problem (the baby) because he is too concerned about not loosing her. talks to Helen is when she is trying to convince her to have an abortion or to give the baby up for adoption. I think that the book is specially aimed for teenagers.
