《林中飘过的白衣女人》读后感

最近我读了一本书叫《林中飘过的白衣女人》，这本书恐怖惊险，内容丰富，非常好看。

这本书主要讲了路克约好朋友碧吉和帕特里克去森林里吃野餐，在森林里看到了一个戴面纱，全身白衣的女人。事后，路克他们碰见了一个骑着马的女孩，他们跟踪那个女孩来到了一幢别墅，他们进了别墅，在房里碰见了白衣女人.......经过好几天的破案，他们终于明白了这件事：原来那个女孩叫娜塔莉，而那个白衣女人是她姑姑汉莉埃塔假扮的，娜塔莉的父母很富有，汉莉埃塔把她父母杀害了，这样，娜塔莉父母的遗产就能分给她一半，另一半分给娜塔莉。娜塔莉的姑姑和姑父想把娜塔莉的那一份抢过来，于是，汉莉埃塔就装成白衣女人把娜塔莉吓进了一个密道，把她锁起来，准备饿死她。这么难破的案子最终还是被路克破解了。

在这本书中，我很赞叹路克。他遇事冷静，无论什么地方，什么时候，他办案都很沉着，永不慌张，在什么情况下都能正确的破案。我赞叹碧吉，她坚韧执着，从来不丢三落四。她视死如归，从来没有胆怯过。我赞叹帕特里克，他是个运动健将，撑杆跳，跳高，跳远他都会，总是在关键时刻立功。

这本书使我懂得了：人不要那么胆小，要勇敢，大胆起来。无论遇到什么事，都要持之以恒，不要动不动就放弃。要勇于面对现实，不管怎样也要坚持到底，才能在社会上做个有用的人。

These films not only introduce the culture of western country, but also touch everyone’s soul, make everyone to think about life. I am aways moved by these films.
