Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Janie, the once-kidnapped heroine of The Face on the Milk Carton and Whatever Happened to Janie?, has her past revealed to the public when her boyfriend becomes a college DJ. "Cooney seems to have a special radar for adolescent longings and insecurities," said PW in a starred review. Ages 12-up.

From School Library Journal

Grade 6-10?This companion to The Face on the Milk Carton (Bantam, 1990) and Whatever Happened to Janie (Delacorte, 1993) provides more intimate details about characters that readers have come to know and care about. Janie Johnson first saw her face on a milk carton one year ago. Reeve Shields, her boyfriend, is now a college freshman and dreams of being a talk-show DJ. As he stares at the microphone in the control room of the campus radio station, the story of Janie's kidnapping at the age of three begins to slide out of his mouth and into the airwaves of Boston. Janie, in the meantime, is trying to recover from six months of nonstop confusion in her life, having recently learned about her past. When she accompanies her newfound sister and brother on a trip to visit colleges (and see her boyfriend) in Boston, Reeve's voice on the radio makes their tumultuous lives veer in a completely new direction. The complexity of human thought and actions is vividly portrayed through the author's distinctive prose, and readers are drawn deeply into the minds and hearts of the characters. Teens who have never read about Janie's circumstances are brought up to speed by the seamless intertwining of former events throughout the story. Cooney's outstanding command of emotional tension has taken this novel to extraordinary heights.?Jana R. Fine, Clearwater Public Library System, FL

1.0 out of 5 stars Turn off the radio, it's amateur hour, May 27 2003
By James N Simpson (Gold Coast, QLD Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Voice on the Radio (Mass Market Paperback)
This is one of the worst books I've ever read. A boyfriend betrays his girlfriend and tells the story of her childhood kidnapping and her problems of now having two families. She finds out and gets upset. That's it. That's the whole story. Nothing else happens. There's no revenge, no blackmail, no tragic warning, the boy friend doesn't get his comeuppance, there's no crime ring smashed, no serial kidnapper trying to kill the boy. Nothing! There's not even a real ending. This is the worst book I've ever read. How did it get published?
I suppose what this book does do is give inspiration to others that even if you can't write there is some company who will publish your work.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Voice On The Radio, Mar 17 2003

This review is from: The Voice on the Radio (Mass Market Paperback)
If you like a mystery and romance, this book is for you! I am suggesting you read The Voice On The Radio. It is romantic, but will keep you guessing, you'll never want to put it down.

Janie Johnson's life was finally getting back to normal. After Janie foud out she had been kidnapped she thought the worl would end. Little did she know her boyfriend Reeve, (away at college), had been seling her story on the radio.

If you want to find out what Janie does, you should read this book! It's a mystery, and a love story. Can true love survive what she has been through?

4.0 out of 5 stars The Voice on the Radio, Mar 12 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Voice on the Radio (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is a continued version of The Face on the Milk Carton and Whatever Happened to Janie? It takes place in Connecticut, New Jersey, and Boston. Janie misses her boyfriend Reeve terribly because he is at college in Boston. What Janie doesn't know is that Reeve is on the college radio station, telling Janie's past, which involves a great deal of sadness. Jodie, Janie's real sister, is looking for a place to go for college and decides to take a look at Boston. Since Janie misses Reeve so much, she decides to go along with Jodie, planning to meet with Reeve. Reeve continues telling the horrible past of Janie, who has no idea he's doing it. Finally Janie and Jodie arrive in Boston, hoping to find Reeve. When Janie hears the radio, she's about to bust. Will she ever be able to face Reeve again? I think this book was awesome, but it is hard to keep track of who and what everything is. I recommend this book for young adults.
