The book that I read is called Summer of Fear and it is about a girl named Rachel. When her witchy cousin Julia comes to live with them, she ruins her life. Her cousin steals her room, her boyfriend, and her life.
Lois Duncan’s book sets place in Albuquerque, New Mexico in about the 1970’s. The whole book takes place in the summer time, all summer long. I liked this book because it was mysterious. Each time you read a page or a chapter you had think something bad was going to happen I like books that are like that.
The main character is a girl named Rachel. She lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She’s 16 years old who is a normal girl with a normal life and then her cousin comes into her life. Rachel suspects something is not right about her cousin. So when the dance is near, Rachel makes this dress for the dance. The days of the dance, she gets hives, so she misses the dance. She asks Mike to take her cousin to the dance, but she insists that she doesn’t want to go, but goes anyways.
When she starts to find out about witchcraft, her neighbor has a stroke. Rachel said that Julia put a spell on the professor so that he doesn’t tell Rachel’s mom about what they were talking about.
Toward the end of the book, Rachel finds out that Julia name really is Sarah Blane. Rachel was suppose go to Santa Fe with her mom but doesn’t want to because Julia/Sarah was going with her. But her little brother Bobby says that she stayed home feeling sick and finds out that she has to spend the day with her after all.
Rachel goes to her mom’s dark room to start developing her film. When she gets there she finds Julia/Sarah in there, she’s has one of the films in her hand and Rachel says that if she expose the film to light that it wont develop right. So she pulls it out and drops it to the floor.
Julia who is really Sarah Blane tells her what’s going to happen to her mom. As fast as she can Rachel asks Mike to take her to the high way to catch her mom in time before the crash. So she does. Sarah only wanted Rachel’s mom to die because she wanted to marry Rachel’s dad. But when they get to the house Sarah is gone.
All I have to say is that parents that have children should try to believe them more often. If they think they are telling a lie, the lie might or could be true that could save a life. Just because some people may be nice doesn’t mean they aren’t really somebody else.
