Summary
Do you like a book with action and suspense well this is the book for you. This book is about a family that moves to a place called gone away lake and they just bought a half a century year old house. That is filled with really old things and maybe even some treasure. They are on a adventure throughout the book but to find out what happens read the book Return to Gone-Away.
Opinion
I would give return to gone-away a 9/10 because you never know what is going to happen the book is filled with suspense and you just want to keep on reading. I really like it because I loved how porsh and her cousin discover all sorts of things in the Villa Caprice. And how there are so many good rich details in the book that make it more real it makes a movie in your mind.
