The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
The City of Ember is about a twelve year old girl named Lina Mayfleet who lives in the city of Ember. It is a city underground and was built after disaster struck on earth and people were forced to go into hiding. It is never mentioned what exactly happened, but you can assume it’s something horrible if people are forced to restart their lives in an underground city. The mayor of the city is given a box which includes instructions on how to exit Ember and this box is locked for at least 200 years. The box gets passed on from mayor to mayor, until … the box ends up in Lina Mayfleet’s closet and is forgotten.
