Book Review 2

Book I Believe You
Author: Low Kay Hwa
Summary:
This Book Is About A Sad Junior College Love Story. The Girl, Named Joanna, Is A Very Quite Person Who Hardly Smiles, Doesn't Have Many Friends And Isn't Very Sociable. Her Parents Died When she Was Jst 12 And She's Living With Her Grandmother. The Boy, Jacky, Who Is Joanna's Classmate Is The Total Opposite From Joanna. He Is Very Famous And Very Sociable And Has Many Friends. Jacky Knows Joanna Since Secondary School And Has Only Known Her As A Quite Girl Who Hardly Talks To Anyone. On The First Day Of Their Junior College Life, Whereby They Happen To Be In The Same Junior College(NJC), Jacky Meets Joanna On The Bus On Their Way To School And Befriends Her With The Thought Of Helping Her. Slowly Jacky Will Get Closer With Joanna And Makes Her Tell Him Her Problems. She Does So And Jacky Will Try His Best To Help Her By Bringing Her To A Psychiatrist And Accompanying Her For Every Appointment. Slowly, They Will Come To Know That Joanna Is Suffering From A Very Terriblr Mental Illness And She Will Eventually Come Out Of It With The Help Of Jacky. The Friendship Between Them Will Eventually Develop Into Love.
Reflection:
This Book Is very Interesting To A Certain Extend as Joanna Comes Out Of Her Mental Illness Without Her Even Knowing That She's Actually Suffering From Something. Its Also Quite Touching To See How Jacky Helps Joanna Through Her Toughest Times. Its A Nice Book Written By a Local Writer! I Would Recommend This Book To Anyone Who wants To read It!
