The Devouring by Simon Holt
5.0

Not gonna lie, this is my favorite book of all time. It has everything I like; a relatable protagonist, realistic characters, bookworms, huge shock factor, terrifying descriptions, and really ignorant adults. I devoured it (pun intended) in one sitting. I found that I couldn't put it down. The few times I tried were plagued with desperation to know what would happen next. This book is like nothing I have ever read before, but it is probably most similar to a Stephen King book in nature. It is surprisingly scary for a YA book. I have no idea why it isn't more popular than it is. All I know is that it is fantastic and everyone should read it so I can gush about it to people and not just the internet.
