A monster, Conor thought. A real, honest-to-goodness monster. In real, waking life. Not in a dream, but here, at his window.
Come to get him.
But Conor didn’t run.
This is a story about a young teenage boy whose worst nightmare is about to come true. It is a story about pain and grief. Anger. Love.
A Monster Calls is a raw book, leaving the reader with many different feelings.
I think that I would have enjoyed this novel more if I had picked it up a few years ago. The writing and the story are easy to follow, so it is a good book for English learners as well.
