Teen Book Review: Riding the Universe by Gabby Triana


Riding the Universe by Gabby Triana
Reviewed by Caitlyn

Chloe Rodriguez is a teenager in high school. She struggles a little with her work, especially chemistry. She should be studying but instead she hangs out at her secret “hideout” and daydreams. Only her best friend Rock knows about it. Then she meets her peer tutor, Gordon Spucirka. Chloe has to go to tutoring because she is failing chemistry. If she doesn’t raise her grade, her bike (motorcycle) Lolita will be taken away. Chloe falls in love with Gordon, one of the smartest people in her grade. When Chloe invites Gordon to her “secret” hideout, things change. Instead of studying chemistry, she starts studying the other chemistry. Gordon and Chloe become boyfriend and girlfriend. Chloe starts getting distracted with Gordon. Chloe soon faces challenges throughout her junior year.


I would recommend this book. I cried, laughed, smiled, and was touched. This book should be for teens in high school and possibly 8th graders. This book shows everything that can happen in a high school year. The beginning isn’t the most interesting but I got into it.
