Abby is a girl I feel many teens will have no problem relating, because who hasn't ever felt like they lived in the shadow of a friend or sibling? Better yet, what I liked most about Abby was that even though she's had hard things happen to her that have broken down her self esteem, she's still strong and feisty, a girl to be reckoned with, a girl who has the ability to overcome life's problems and still be true to herself. Though, Abby knows she can save her sister she has to save her sister she can't be the the one left, right? So she recruits the beautiful and secretive Eli to help her save Tess once and for all, but what happens when she tumbles upon something she shouldn't?
