Deep Blue by Jennifer Donnelly

This book is about a girl named Serafina and her

Dokimi, which is where she’ll see if she is the

true princess. Everything is going great! But

then Serafina’s mother, the queen gets shot

with an arrow Serafina and her best friend,

Neela get captured.  The two girls have to

escape and get back to Serafina’s place.

Along the way there are unexpected twists

and turns. They also meet new people,

and make new friends.

If you like mystery, action, and mermaids then you will love

this book! This book’s mystery element is who shot the arrow,

and who captured the mergirls. The action element is how the

mergirls are trying to get back to Serafina’s place, and how they

are escaping from whoever took them. The mermaid element is t

hat nearly every character is a mermaid / merman. This book is

also great for those of you who like Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's

Stone, because Deep Blue involves some magic, and some

mythical creatures. 

I rate this book four and one half stars because the

opening was very confusing to me, but once I got into the

book it all started to make sense. This book really grabbed

my attention. It had exciting twists, and turns. This book is

fantastic, and I highly recommend it!---Review by Clara B.
