The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau

The book I read is called “The City of Ember”. It is a book by Jeanne Duprau. This book follows the genre of adventure and post-apocalypse, which takes place in an underground city called Ember. The story is about two young heroes, Lina and Doon, who find clues that lead them to think that there might be a way out of Ember. They embark on a difficult and risky journey to find the truth about their city and to find a way out of it before the time runs out. I really enjoyed reading this book, especially when they discover the place and when the adventure starts to get real. The author did a very good job of writing this book since he added lots of details and elaborated on the actions that took place which helped me understand the book better. Overall this book was a very interesting and fun book to read, and it kept me entertained. Anyone who likes young adult or adult science fixion novels, this book might be the one for you. (Alexis.

The City of Ember by Jeanne Duprau was a really interesting and unique book. This book was about a place called Ember which was a post-apocalyptic underground city threatened by aging infrastructure and corruption. From the beginning it was actually quite boring talking about other topics, and when it got mostly close to the part where they were about to discover the place it started to get far more interesting. I feel this book fits well in the Fantasy genre as it is something that is most likely only to happen in the imagination of people. I feel once you start reading it more and go further into pages it gets far more complex and interesting. The vocabulary from the book was actually quite easy for me. I didn't have lots of miss pronunciations when reading sentences. I overall give this book a 3/5 as I still felt the beginning could improve. Overall if anyone likes fantasy or seeing what corruption and infrastructure are like, this book might be the one for you. (Jackson. Grade 8)

The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau Is a mostly fantasy novel, I rated the novel's enjoyment a 4/5 and I rated the vocabulary difficulty a 2/5. I found this novel to be pretty fun to read because the author made the characters very well-written and feel human-like, and the story of their adventure was interesting and was also adventurous. The vocabulary is not hard to understand and it also does not have any inappropriate words so anyone can read this novel if they can read novels over 200 pages long. I recommend this novel for people who like both fantasy and adventure all at the same time and the novel can be read by all audiences. The story is about Lina, Poppy, and Doon, who live in the City of Ember which is an underground city, and they want to escape from the City so they are able to see the world outside of their city.  (Rama.
