Emily The Strange: Dark Times is another novel in the Emily The Strange series; the newest one to date that's been released, I believe. This time, Emily has moved to another new town (as usual) and soon builds a time machine, with intentions of learning about the past through firsthand experience. Emily
also enrolls in homeschooling this time around, which quickly leads to her mother teaching her a course about the family history - especially the Dark Aunts. There happens to be quite a mystery about her aunt Lily's premature demise that just doesn't add up, so she decides to go back in time to find out what
really happened - and to try and save her life, if she can. However, she runs out of liquid black rock (the magical substance she runs the machine with) and gets stuck in the 1700's - how
will she get home? You'll have to read it to find out.
I liked this book because it had a much more in depth plot to it than the last Emily the Strange book I read. It was totally gripping, and I found mysef having read the entire thing in 2 or 3 days because I just couldn't put it down! Very, very good. 5 stars!
