In

This book contains several quotes about reading and books that all readers will understand and enjoy.
This book was slow to gain my interest, and I did not enjoy it very much.
In
Black Diamonds, Angie and Mark stay with their family in a ghost town. While in the ghost town, Angie and Mark come into possession of a map that supposedly leads to a treasure. Soon, the young people realize that others wish to prevent them from finding the treasure.
Black Diamonds is set in a ghost town in Colorado. The setting and atmosphere of the book remind me of the Troy Nesbit books and the Secret Circle book,
The Legend of the Devil's Lode.
I greatly enjoyed this book.
