Review: Hooked


Title: Hooked
Author: Catherine Greenman
Publisher: Delacorte Books
Release Date: August 9, 2011
Received: Borrowed
Rate: 5


Summary: Thea Galehouse has always known how to take care of herself. With a flighty club-owner mom and a standoffish, recovering-alcoholic dad, Thea has made her own way in her hometown of New York, attending the prestigious and competitive Stuyvesant High School. But one chat with Will, a handsome and witty senior, and she's a goner—completely hooked on him and unable to concentrate on anything else.
Always worried that she loves Will more than he loves her, Thea is pleasantly surprised when their romance weathers his move to college and Will goes out of his way to involve her in his life. But then, Thea misses a period. And that starts Thea and Will on a wild ride that neither of them could have possibly prepared for. When they decide to keep the baby, their concerned parents chip in what they can to keep Will in school and give both teenagers a comfortable place to raise their child. But when a freak accident leaves Thea shaken and threatens to upend their little family altogether, Thea is forced to turn to the last place she would have chosen for comfort: her stiff, uncompromising father.

Review: Hooked was... Amazing for a lack of a better word at first I kind of hated Thea for her stupidity. But towards the end I just loved her. She was strong, brave and a bit too stubborn. This book is an amazing example of a good mother. At times I questioned her sanity but i still loved her. Will on the other hand beginning to end I held a strong dislike for him. Amazing book. 5 stars.
