I remember reading this trilogy as a teen and being obsessed with these books. I didn’t remember anything about them but decided to re-read them after seeing one in a used book store.
Fog is the first in this trilogy and you get introduced to Christina, the main character. She’s a young teen just starting 7th grade. I found her to be headstrong and smart. You really root for her and hope that she overcomes the horrible things that happen around her.
This book is psychological horror/thriller that deals with emotional and mental abuse of children. I found it to be atmospheric and dark, but not without hope. (

I kept waiting for this book to make sense.
I love Caroline B. Cooney so I expected to love this one, too. Maybe it was all the ocean analogies that I didn't understand. But nothing about this book seems to add up. I was waiting for that piece of information that would make it all click in to place.
But nothing.
The ending was entirely unsatisfying, cutting off quickly...probably so you'll be eager to pick up the next book in the trilogy. ("Fog" is the first of this series.) I'm tempted to find out if there is a way that this story finally makes sense in the end, but not tempted enough to wade through two more novels to find out. (

Not my favorite but probably because it's about someone so much younger than me. But it had nice mystery to it. I do hate how the adults are never on the kids side, that isn't how it works in real life. (

I don’t even know where to begin with Fog. Honestly, I’m still trying to make sense of what just happened. This is one of those books where you are reading and enjoying yourself but at the same time you find yourself so incredibly irritated because there is just so much that is wrong and so much that is missing. It’s even more irritating to find yourself finished with the book and nothing has really been resolved. I refuse to read the next two books just to make a little bit of sense with what the heck was going on in Fog.

It was very hot the last week before school began: as though the wind from another world were crossing the island.
