Book Review #18

This book is about a girl named Lilith who is living in a hell all thanks to a boy named Cam. Cam broke Lilith's heart three millennia ago when they were dating and Lilith is now suffering because of his actions. Lilith is an average teen girl who wasn't very popular. She went to Trumbull High School and felt left out by the other girls because she wasn't as popular as they were. The girl she hated most was called Chloe King. The whole school knew who she was and everybody admired her. Chloe would insult Lilith as much as possible and she enjoyed doing so.

Lilith was living in a hell controlled by a guy named Lucifer. He had a spherical, glass ball and that ball was the hell Lilith was living in. Lucifer had trapped Lilith in the glass ball because of Cam actions. Cam would often meet Lucifer and beg him to set Lilith free but Lucifer wasn't going to let her go so easily, so he made a get with Cam. The bet was that Cam had 15 days to win Lilith's heart in order to set her free from Lucifer's hell. " Easy." Cam said with confidence. " But." Lucifer added. " If you do not succeed, there will be a place in a hell for you too. " Cam was nervous now that Lucifer had told him his part of the bet but he maintained his confidence. Cam Lucifer and Cam shook hands and Cam's 15 days begun.

Cam explored around the neighbourhood, hoping to find Lilith somewhere, today he was in luck. He found Lilith sitting by a tree in a forest named Rattle Snake Creek. There was a special Carob tree that Lilith would always sit under and play her guitar. Cam approached Lilith slowly, not wanting to startle her and simply said "hello." Lilith jumped up with a shock, she wasn't expecting someone to meet her. She turned around just to see Cam staring directly at her. " Who are you and what are you doing here? " Lilith asked. " My name is Cam and I've just moved here. " Lilith was confused as to why a random boy started talking to her but she didn't say anything. She didn't know why, but she hated Cam and she didn't even know him. Something about him made her very angry but she didn't know what is was.

The next day, Lilith was at school opening her locker when she heard a familiar voice. The voice of Cam. She glanced up from her locker just to see Cam opening the one next to hers. " Not you again. " Lilith thought angrily. Cam knew that Lilith didn't like him at all but he didn't give up. He was determined to win Lilith's heart and set her free from the hell she was in. The bell rang and the hallway was absolute chaos with students running around and teachers getting to their classes. Lilith sat down at her usual seat in her homeroom class and funnily enough, Cam was in the same homeroom as her, sitting no further than three seats down. Lilith was very, very angry and annoyed because it seemed as if Cam was following her around. Cam knew that she felt this way but still he was not discouraged.

Days flew by and Lilith seemed to hate Cam more than she did before. At this point, Cam was feeling a bit disappointed with himself because he was confident that he could win over Lilith's heart with ease, but know he thinks the complete opposite. Cam needs to up his game if he wants to set Lilith free. What can Cam do to win Lilith's heart with the small amount of time he has left? Time is ticking away and Cam is flustered, he doesn't know what do to.

My Questions So Far:
Will Cam be able to win Lilith's heart and set her free?
Will Lilith start to grow feelings for Cam?
Who will win the bet, Lucifer or Cam?
