Cabin 102

I really like cruise ships so i thought I would enjoy this, and I did. It seems a little cheesy, I admit, a 12 yr. old afraid of water. Weird right? but it was a really good book. I couldn't put it down! The ending was a little weird though.

Twelve year old Dusty has a major fear of the water and is forced to go on a cruise with his family although he doesn't want to. While on the cruise he often hears cries from what he belives is coming from the cabin next door.... CABIN 102.He decides to investigate it, he comes to find that the cries are coming from a ghost indian girl named Tahani that died on the ship in 1511 in a hurricane.She cannot rest in peace until she is put back on the island in which she grew up on. When a hurricane comes Dusty helps Tahani get back on the island while he comes face to face with his fear. I think this book was a very good book and I really recommend that you should read it. It really keeps the reader involved in it until you don't want to put it down.I would definetly have to say that it is one of the best books I have ever read!

Twelve year old dusty has a fear of drowningand when his step mom wins a trip for a cruisehe doesn't want to go. He ends up being forced to. On the cruise no parties seem to suit him. Some weird things starthappening, like cries from the other rooms, flickeringlights, and faucets going on and off. He decides to go checkthings out in Cabin 102 were the unusual cries came from. Heends up meeting Tahni, a ghost of an Indian, which was drowned by the Spaniards. Tahni teaches Dusty how to over come his fear of drowning. At first he doesn't know that she's a ghostbut by going to an museum with Lionel he quickly finds out thestory of her life and swears to get her back to her island so her spirit can rest in peace. When a wave that is over 30 feet tall comes from a storm inthe north Atlantic, Tahni spots it and Dusty alerts the peopleon the ship. When it hit the ship was tipped almost on it's sideand Dusty slid off it....

It was a good book I have to admit, but not really my type of book...and I picked it up because my younger sister said it was totally awesome, so I took her word for it and I read it. It was really exciting in some parts and slow in others...but it was still good. I guess I am just use to faster paced books...but I really enjoyed the book although I hated the ending!
