Diving Deep


The Deep didn't disappoint. 
Once again our heroine, Sapphire,  returns to Ingo.  This time she's inadvertently saving the world! She, Conor, and Faro, must meet the Kraken in the Deep to see why he's decided to come out of hiding.  Will they be sacrificial lambs or saviors?  I just adore the way that Dunmore creates characters that are so real.  Sapphy and Conor, struggling with their father's abandonment and mother's new boyfriend (plus being half Mer...) Faro, struggling with his mixed blood also, trying to fit in... All about learning to be themselves despite hardships.  
Emily and I both are hooked on this series and now can't wait to read the next book The Crossing of Ingo.  I'm hoping the library has a copy so I don't have to share the iPad!
