This is an enjoyable read. The action starts within the first few pages and keeps going which makes it difficult to put it down. I made my family wait around for me to finish the book before I was willing to go out to lunch today.
Angie is very likeable and the reader feels an immediate connection to the main character. Her family is fun and quirky. Karen McQuestion does a great job painting a vivid picture in the mind's eye through amazing descriptions. The plot is intriguing with twists and turns in all the right places. It kept me guessing, while wondering where the author would ultimately take the story. The ending is realistic, leaving the reader satisfied after the final page is turned.
I would highly recommend this story to all, middle school and up. It's a quick, satisfying read that grabs the reader and refuses to let go.

I liked the mood and atmosphere built up by this book in its first third. There was a genuine spookiness and a decent mystery. Unfortunately, it goes downhill pretty swiftly from there. I figured out the "twist" on the basis of a single overheard conversation and in light of that "twist" the lead antagonist's actions make no sense whatsoever. The ending is far too rushed and I know it's a YA book but it felt a little too short and insubstantial. The main events take place in the course of an extremely unlikely 48 hour period. Based on this one book I'd say McQuestion is a decent writer but she needs to give herself more time to let the story unfold in a more natural way. This felt forced. She should also spend more time researching what would really happen in terms of police procedure to a girl who'd been the victim of an attempted parking lot snatch. That part of the story felt totally unrealistic, even from the beginning. The story itself is a good concept, but if I was her editor, I'd tell her to go back and work on it some more before actually turning it into a novel.

The premise of this book is so promising. There's a missing mother, a nearly-taken daughter, a rock star dad, an amiable older brother, a very large crazy man, a cute guy from a weird rich family and a suitably skeptical police detective. What more could any reader ask for?
Well, it turns out the reader could ask for another fifty pages to develop said story. I was with the author through the end of Chapter 13, about halfway through. We've had our introductions, we know about mom's disappearance, Angie has seen the creepy mansion, and she is suitably unsettled. Then it felt as if the story was scrambling to an ending. Ultimately, I was happy with the set-up and comfortable with the ending. It's not precisely happily-ever-after, but feels even better for it. I just didn't totally buy the short run up to the ending.
I think this will still be a favorite (ok- everybody has to use the pun somewhere to review this)with teen readers who like the mystery and who wouldn't want to stick with a longer work. However, the adults who often love teen suspense titles are not going to be as thrilled by this one.

This is a solid suspense novel but I'm only giving it 3 stars because it could have been further developed. The beginning and middle are fairly strong - love the cat's contribution - but the psychological scarring and such could have been explored more. Also, some loose ends - does the main character have the worst friends on the planet? Doesn't anyone ever show up? That was so blatantly weird I actually expected a paranormal twist. Same with the other family members - the daughter-in-law abandons a girl at the first threat of losing a little money but is still declared a good person with good intentions? The last third of the book was weak and seems rushed, unfortunately, which is too bad because the author can obviously write and write well. Three stars.

The story started out good and I was interested enough that I even took it to work to read, which is something I rarely do. However it did not take long to figure out what was going to happen and I lost some interest. There were a few surprises. Angel and her family were different but in today's world not unusual which may make it easier for a young reader to relate . The family living situation was such that young readers can connect. I did like that while the father appeared to be living in another world regardng his musical career he did care about his family and he portrayed a sense of detirmination when it came to his making a living. I tried to look at it form two perspectives one being the story line and the other as to what a young reader would take away from the story. Had the story line been a little more intriguing it would have gotten 5 stars.
Iam trying not to say too much specififc to the story so as not to give it away . It is a good read and I think a young person would enjoy it.

Angie's mother has disappeared, Angie is snatched from a mall parking lot, and her life is turned upside-down. Five years have passed since Angie's mom has disappeared, her father is always on the road, and her grandmother cannot watch over Angie and Jason day-after-day. Where did her mom go, and will Angie ever forget her mother's disappearance? Why did Scott Bittner abduct Angie from the mall, and why did Scott's rich mom invite Angie to her estate? What was going through Angie's mind as she walked through the gorgeous Bittner mansion? I highly recommend "FAVORITE" to all mystery lovers, who enjoy a gripping story, packed with suspense. The author becomes a Master storyteller for young adults and adults as she crafts a steadily engrossing thriller. The read is enjoyable, intriguing, and packed with twists-and-turns. Will Angie's mom and dad ever reunite, how long will Scott be in prison, and how will Angie get through the suffering of loss?

“What a way to start the book,” was the first thought that crossed my mind after reading the first several pages. It definitely started off with some sort of a bang that is hard to follow through when you’ve already set the bar.
Favorite is a great, fast read for those that love a good mystery/thriller story. It’s also a book that gives me trouble when typing the name, as I’m consistently trying to avoid spelling it Favourite. Anyway. The book is listed under the genres of mystery, thriller, and suspense... (more of this review can be found @ http://clockworkorigin.com/favorite-review/)

I loved this little story about 2 teenage siblings, Angel and Jason. Their mother mysteriously disappeared leaving them with their struggling musician father, who ended up in jail. Living with their grandma, they try to have a normal life, until..Angie is attacked by a stalker. While slowly recovering from her trauma, both kids are left alone, as grandma goes on a cruise with her boyfriend and dad plays a gig. Suddenly the mother of the stalker calls Angie and entices them into her "magic" castle to enter her rich and eccentric world. Both teens fall under her spell. Nothing is as it seems and they become trapped in a web of insanity. No spoilers here, but there are enough uncertainties about what is going on to keep you turning the pages. The characterizations were a bit "too forced" in the teen mold and I would suspect that this book may appeal more to preteens. At any rate, a fun read.

Started reading this book, a few hours later was finished. I couldn't put it down. I enjoyed the writing style and felt the author captured the teen "voice" very well. The Favorite family is very likable and the ending, while dramatic is very satisfying, something I find missing in many books today that concentrate on sequels.
This is a book for young adults and I found it very fitting to that genre. There is no sex, or bad language. The cover describes it as part thriller, part coming of age. I agree. In particular, I enjoyed the way the suspense mounts chapter by chapter to a thrilling climax. Could we have figured out the ending?--sure, but that made it no less enjoyable and pleasing.
I would recommend this book for young adults. The attack sequence in the first part of the book might be a little intense for the younger group.

A decent premise but I was left feeling a little hanging at the end. Yes, there is an evil protagonist and there are some good characters but it was lacking and the writing was a bit sophomoric. Not to be a snob but I need either characters I can become attached to or a story that is unique and unexpected and this didn't really deliver on either. It was a good way to waste a few hours though.

Interesting thriller; very intriguing, emotional and chilling. Realistically horrifying thriller which keeps you glued to every chapter, frighteningly worried that it will have a very sickening ending.

I loved this book! Angie lives with her grandmother because her father is a life-time aspiring musician that is constantly traveling, but he loves his kids more than anything. Angie and her brother Jason try to go through life after their mother leaves, but Angie cannot shake the feeling that her mother didn't just walk away from them. Once Scott Bittner tries to kidnap Angie, she gets thrown into the Bittner's life. Scott's mother contacts Angie to apologize and beg for forgiveness so Angie agrees to meet her. She offers Angie and her brother things their family could never provide. Angie is very reluctant to offer forgiveness because something just seems "wrong" to her about the entire situation. Once Angie decides she cannot take the Bittner's anymore and tries to leave, her world gets turned upside down and she might not make it out alive!

This was a fast, easy read. The premise is a little unbelievable, but still, it was a fun story. I was a bit befuddled that there wasn't more about psychic ability/precognition since that seemed to have been such a draw-in at the start of the novel. I'm going to read more of McQuestion's work.

This is the second Karen McQuestion book I read, very different from the first one. This short story was an interesting plot, if not predictable, but I feel that readers were slighted due to the shortness. There wasnt a lot of time to build the characters and their thoughts seemed to jump around just to get to the point. More than once I paused while reading and thought it was an unusual story but with enough interest to keep me reading. Not my favorite by McQuestion but wont turn me off from others to come that I know I will love.

This is a book that I as a preteen would recommend for 11-14 young girls.
This story tells the tale of a young girl determined to find her mother who disapeared for 5 years. Angie Favorite is suddenly attacked by Scott Bittner, causing fatal injuries. Shortly after, Angie is invited to stay at Mrs.Bittner`s (Scott Bittner`s mother) mansion. Angie is investigating what exactly is going on, when she finds her mother, who had beem kept in captive against her will by Mrs.Bittner. Angie has to discover why her mother was taken into captive and unravel a dark secret. Can she save the day, and will her story end with a "happily ever after" ¿ (Sorry can not find proper ¿)
Find out by buying this book on your Kindle for $4,99 now!
It is a good book, I think there were too many feelings repeated ad not enough explanations. It could be a bit more exciting and scary. I cried and gasped with Angie and if I only had one word to describe this book, it would be "gripping".
Hope that you have enjoyed my review, you do not have to agree with anything I wrote. I think it is good to have different opinions and thoughts. If you think some of my points do not say what you say, do not say anything.

LIKED THIS BOOK JUST FINE BUT NOT ONE YOU REMEMBER FOR LONG AFTER YOU HAVE READ IT. IT IS ENTERTAINING BUT NOT ONE YOU JUST CAN'T PUT DOWN. THIS SOUNDS LIKE A REALLY BAD REVIEW BUT I DON'T MEAN IT THAT WAY IT IS JUST A 4 RATHER THAN A 5 AND I LIKE 5'S. LOL IT IS WORTH READING AND IT IS EASY TO FOLLOW AND ISN'T SILLY WHICH IRRITATES ME. ENOUGH SAID.

When I saw this book on the shelf, I was intrigued by the cover. I'd never read a YA novel before, so I figured I'd let this one be my first. I absolutely loved this and fell in love with the protagonist right away. I found myself wishing and willing everything to be alright. As I read the climax of the story, my heart starting beating fast and I felt like I was right there with Angie. I was so pleased at the end, I didn't want to put the book down, but it was already over. Awesome read.

Favorite is a very well written book, with its best feature being its suspense. It has a great plot, with lovable characters and nothing that comes out of the blue or randomly. It is, even without much action, not a slow book and was hard to put down. Even though I agree with the decision of it being a stand alone novel, I would most gladly read a sequel.

I wish we didn't have to list books as YA because I think so many books get overlooked by adults that would absolutely love them. Just like the Lovely Bones could have been considered "YA" and yet, was read and LOVED by adults, so too, Favorite has that same energy.
This book could easily have been priced 9.99 and I'd like to thank the publisher for keeping the price sooo reasonable! That being said, I'm scooping up the rest of McQuestions books while the prices are still a bargain!
If you liked Lovely Bones - you will love Favorite!

This little mystery book is billed as being for teens. It will satisfy any adult who is into mysteries. This is a story told by a 16 year girl who has had a lot of trauma in her life. The great thing about this story is the unexpected twists and turns and the dramatic ending. I stayed up late to finish this book. I just had to see what happened next. Mystery lovers enjoy!

This book is spellbounding in that Karen McQuestion truly has the ability to put herself in her characters' shoes. As a 15 year old girl myself, I can tell you that Angel is probably the most relateable teenage figure I've ever read about, (that includes books from authors such as Meg Cabot, who tune to girls such as myself).I feel as I could easily step into Angel's life and become one of her best friends, so to speak. Although the diction is simple, the story is better off that way , unmuddled by words that you'd need a dictionary to understand, and instead focuses on the raw depth of emotion that Karen McQuestion's characters exhibit.This story is a treasure, one that deserves to capture unsuspecting future readers
such as myself for a long time. I'm looking forward to reading more from Karen McQuestion in the future.

Rarely do you find a book that keeps you so entwined. From beginning to end it has so much emotion and you feel yourself easily feeling what this girl went through inevitably finding out what really happened to her missing mother. Great writing! Couldn't put this book down! My next book I am going to read on my kindle will be by Karen McQuestion again. One great author!

This is the third time writing this review, I kept hitting the wrong button. so i'm gonna make it short this time. I read when I go to bed because it helps me go to sleep. But thats not what happened with Favorite, it did just the opposite, I couldn't put it down. I let my family and friends know that this is a book for them to read next. I am looking foreward to some more sleepless nights reading more from Karen McQuestion.

Once I started reading Favorite I could hardly put it down. I definitely reccomend this to other YAs. I really enjoyed the beginning and middle of the book, but the ending (although it was a satisfying end) could have been better. I am looking forward to reading a non-YA novel by Ms. McQuestion!

A great book by a great author. When I read this book I had to read it all in one sitting. Having a twenty year old daughter I found the characters believable and engaging. Without giving away to much I worried about the main characters emotional state, but then I thought she is just a character in a book. Yes I was that caught up. I can't wait to read Karen's other books.

Even in the beginning of the book before any serious drama begins, Angie is a real girl and she battles problems that any teenager would have to face. More towards the end, she also shows us a side of bravery amd strength. She knows just what to do in the wrong situation & Karen McQuesion keeps you hanging on to this compelling book at the end of every chapter.:)

In several chapters, I was actually reminded of "Veronica's Room," Ira Levin's two-act play from the 1970's, in which the lead character's uncanny resemblance to a long-deceased darling lays the sleazy groundwork for an unsettling nightmare. That said, the final third of "Favorite" too quickly slides into a predictable, back-story succession of talking heads, a device that diminishes all of the excellent efforts of building suspense that might have garnered an extra star in the final analysis.
