WORTH CONSUMING!

Maybe a little gimmicky in places, but still a gripping and touching read.

Oskar Schell – the 9 year old hero of the book – I think is one of the best realised and charming characters I’ve come across in a very long time!

Recommended. (Also, even more so, the author’s debut, Everything is Illuminated.)

How do you mean?

Did you find it boring, or its structure difficult?

Have to say that I enjoyed it – I think author has a lot of talent, very inventive!

The structure

I’m only at the beginning. I find it hard reading it … I started this book just after finishing “Tuesdays with Morrie” by Mitch Albom which was terrific, and I got stuck…
