Jacob has a horrific experience. He discovers clues to a mystery that he is part of. He visits a remote island to try and uncover more clues and to solve the mystery.
The strengths that this book has is the tension and how it entrances you and makes you want to keep reading.
The weaknesses that this book has is how the beginning is a bit slow to get to the plot.
I personally enjoyed this book very much. I think that the book could be improved by getting to the point a lot quicker. I really liked how the book included pictures to support their point and to interest the reader.
This book fits into the mystery and fiction genre. There are some fictional characters in the book and the book is basically just a big mystery that is getting solved.
The action in the book takes place around the end and the middle. The author does a pretty good job of getting you involved. He describes what is happening and the creatures very well and in great detail.
The main character is Jacob and he is pretty believable as he is an average human being, apart from the fact that he is the only one that can see the monsters. He doesn’t really remind me of anyone else. The author describes him in great detail and you can see his picture clearly in your mind.
I like the way the author writes. The words he chooses fit the style/book really well.
The scene that I liked the most is when Emma shows Jacob her secret hiding spot underneath the sea. They go down there and Emma shows Jacob some old photos.
I definitely liked reading this book. I would rate it 4/5.
