5 had me crying like a baby stars!!
It’s not very often that a book has me crying at the end. This book was completely unexpected. I knew it was going to be good because I haven’t seen a bad review about it. However I didn’t read the blurb before I started and was caught by surprise about the plot. A Monster Calls is a fast paced read; I think it could be read in two hours or less. It follows a young man and the monster that comes to him every night. I’m not sure what I can tell you about this book that won’t be a spoiler. It’s such a short book that anything I say may be a spoiler.
The plot was amazing, the writing was fantastic, the imagination… it was just good overall!!

Excellent review! I haven’t read any of Patrick Ness’ books yet. but really, can you read a book in 2 hours? hehe.. Would you say that this book is a bit depressing?

I wouldn’t say depressing it is thought provoking for sure. It is a sad book but not depressing. I think I just feel for the main character because what he is going through is similar to my situation just years apart. lol and yes this is such a short book definitely under 2 hours if no interruptions happen 😀

It seems this author likes to write thought provoking books. I was planning to read More Than This this fall but I saw a blogger’s review and it sounds depressing so I returned to the library.. I may consider of it when I’m sad I guess.. hehe..

This review is rather short, but I have a feeling you haven’t gotten over the hangover, yet 😉 I’m actually so excited about this book, I want to start reading right now. Your excitement was not only there, it is contagious!

Thanks! it was so hard to do a review for this book without spoiling anything!!! That’s why it’s only a paragraph long. I just wanted to get my point across that it is awesome and everyone should read it 😀

Haha you did make that point! I know, sometimes it is SO hard not to spoil anything. Sometimes I want to pull my hair out because I don’t want to spoil sth but I want to give an example.
