Title: Fails on every level!
Product review: The blind leading the blind would be a good way to summarize this by Walter Dean Myers. The blind leading the reader would be even better, for Somewhere in the Darkness seems boring and pointless. The whole book is about a endless trip.When the book finally ends it raps up too rapidly. The book begins with a young man named Jimmy Little who is an intelligent boy trying to survive a rough neighborhood. Mama Jean , his father's mother, is his sole provider. Suddenly, and rather quickly, Jimmy's father (Crab) who escaped from prison appears in the story. They embark on a trip, which is very uninteresting. There were enjoyable points in the book. The character of Mama Jean was well done. Jimmy was an OK character if not a bit ignorant. This book fails on every level. I have read many books good and bad, if you read good literature you will understand my views.
