great book
The book was very very interested. I can't wait to read the next one
I only decided to read The City of Ember because it was for my summer reading homework last year, but it turned out to be something I wanted to keep reading, but not just so I could do my homework. The City of Ember is mysterious, and full of unsuspected surprises. It's really captivating and you will experience different emotions throughout reading the book.
