Deep and Dark and Dangerous

I'm reading the book  Deep and Dark and Dangerous by Mary Downing Hahn. This book is about how a 13 year old girl, Ali, finds and old photograph of her mom Clair, Dulcie her aunt and some other girl. All Ali knows is that the random girls name starts with a T and her grandmother took it when Clair and Dulcie were young. Ali is determined to find out who this other girl is even though her mom denies anyone else there with her. After searching for weeks Ali finally has a chance to finding out who this mysterious girl is, but her mom is very protective and refuses to let her go to the lake with her sister and her daughter.

In this book I made a strong connection to Ali. All though i'm not going to a camp sight/lake were an incident happens, but I feel the same way she dose when her mom gets a little to protective. I under stand how she feels her mom treats her like a dog. My mom, like hers, is a bit over protective and can be a little dramatic, but on the other side she is very loving and takes care of me. Just like Ali's mom Clair. Over all my mom is a wonderful mother and I am happy she is over protective.

Before I started reading Deep and Dark and Dangerous I thought that I wouldn't like this book just because of they way it looked, but I have learned not to judge a book by its cover. All thought the cover is quite interesting I also thought the book was going to be terrible just because the books over all summary. Despite that, I still tried the book and ended up loving it. Especially on how the book is worded and both explained. Over all Deep and Dark and Dangerous is a wonderful book to read and I definitely recommend reading it.
