“I decided right then and there to make a snickerdoodle perfume to wear, so that one day he would sniff me like that.”
? Jessica Verday, The Hollow

The Hollow is an interesting tale that takes a whole new spin on The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Abbey is just a regular teenage girl who like to make perfumes and is excited about going to prom-until her best friend Kristen disappears. With Kristen gone Abbey is stuck in a cold, grey world that she can’t seem to escape from.

It is an effort for Abbey to get up every morning and just get through the day. Then she meets Caspian. He is a ray of sunshine in her fog filled world. Caspian is a mystery to Abbey and she wants to know more, but he finds ways to avoid answering her questions.

Is the legends that surround Sleepy Hollow true? This romantic mystery will have you questioning all you know and have you eagerly turning the pages to find the answers.

Good Points

The plot was very unique and not one that has been done over and over.
