She didn’t pay much attention until she realized she was in a part of the town that she didn’t know. This theme comes from how Summer wasn’t being very aware of her surroundings as she wandered off to find her missing friend. The first theme she uses to keep the reader interested is awareness. By Preston writing this way it really helps the reader to connect with the characters in a more personal way, while also helping them to take away lessons from her themes.Īlong with her writing style, Preston has a great choice of themes for her books. Preston made it especially fun to read by having some of Collin’s chapters being about his past and how he got to be the person he is, which helps the reader to understand why he takes teen girls and keeps them in his cellar.

The main characters that tell the story are Summer, who was kidnapped, Collin, who was the kidnapper, and Lewis, Summer’s boyfriend. She also writes her story with a multi-point of view with every one of the main characters telling the story of what is happening to them as the book progresses. Right away in the story, she tells who is going to be introduced and what part they play in the story. Natasha Preston chose to write in a unique style that I haven’t read many books with. Her writing style and the two most prominent themes perseverance and awareness are what keep readers reading this amazing book. The book got its title because of Collin, the kidnapper, kept the four girls in his cellar. This E-book was later published into a book that can be bought on the shelves of people’s favorite store. Natasha Preston reaches a whole new level when she published her book “The Cellar” on the reading app Wattpad. Well, that’s the feeling Summer felt one night when she went out searching for a missing friend when she turned around to find a towering man stalking her from behind the trees. The thought that something equally as bad of death is about to happen. The feeling of being watched and observed from a distance.
