I struggled on the rating but settled on a 2, I'm not sure what age this is suppose to be written for, ages 12 and under it has sexual scenes of the 17 yr old boy and girl on a date, and it has some bad language, but yet for 13+ it's written too juvenile to make it interesting, then the story? nothing happens, on their first date of canoeing they discover a house under the lake, well okay, then they keep going back and exploring it with scuba gear, okay, the house is described in detail, so okay, but from there? nothing happens, I kept waiting for a thrill, a horror or anything to bring this book to life but didn't happen

Can't recommend this to anyone no matter your age.

Honestly, do not waste time nor money on this book. There was a rambling story that went nowhere and ended abruptly. It was as if the author thought to himself, "well I'm done" and then totally quit.
