Theme in my book: Deep and Dark and Dangerous

         I think the author wants us to learn that telling the truth is the most important thing. I think this because in the book Dulcie and Claire have been lying their whole life about their friend Teresa's. And since they are lying about it Teresa has not died in peace. She has been waiting 30 years for them to tell the truth. Once they told the truth, she died in peace.  

        I think the author wants us to feel sad or hurt for Teresa because she never grew old with Dulcie and Claire. She is going to rot in the ground. But she will be in peace. I think the author also wants us to feel happy for her in the end of the book because she is now in a better place and is free in peace.

        I think the author wants us to think about life and death. How precious life is and how quickly it can be taken away from you if u take it for granted. Live life to the fullest and don't take 1 day for granted.
