City of Ember By Jeanne DuPrau

Book: City of Ember
Author: Jeanne DuPrau
Genre: Fantasy Sci-Fi
Rating: 6/10
Okay. This book was okay, not my favorite but okay. It is age approved for everyone. But this story is full of suspense and twist. The only thing I didn't like was the fact that the characters didn't really give out any emotion and I lacked in understanding them. So, Doon Horrow and Lina Mayfleet become good friends in the story. They both were chosen for diffrent jobs but then switched for a reason that I'm not telling you about. The story is about a box that contains the directions to escaping the city of ember. A city which will start to crumble in 200 years. It is year 241 and no one had discovered the box since the 7th mayor left the box hidden and forgotten in his closet. He died and never got to returning the box. Doon and Lina go through a wild adventure and path to find the directions. Lina along the way sends messages between the new mayor and a strange man named Looper.It's a okay book, so I might consider reading the next.
