chloe's older sister, ruby, practically raised her alone and loves her more than anyone or anything else on earth. but after chloe, on ruby's encouragement, swims in the reservoir and finds a dead body, she wants to leave town and live with her dad. ruby will do anything to get her back, including impossible things...
i thought i would like this more. the writing was amazing- lovely and spare. also, i was intrigued by the town under the reservoir. but even when the mysterious events were explained, they weren't -really- explained. there wasn't that "aha" moment where everything falls into place because we never find out how ruby does anything.
that said, i would definitely recommend this to teens looking for something good & spooky.
