Let the Right One In by John Ajvide Lindqvist
5.0

What a messed up, sick, strange and creepy book... I LOVED IT.

Oh, man. What a book. I already knew that swedish writers are like no other. The plots, the characters, the narration are unbelievably unique. Of course if you're not into books that will blow your mind off for sure than I suppose swedish books are not for you.

But this book specifically was incredible. I would've never thought I will be loving a book about vampire-like creatures and a sick reality about monsters. The characters were amazing and thanks to the amazing narration I could empathize even with a squirrel.

This book was a journey to a twisted reality where fairytales and the human world combine in awful but magical ways. It was an experience I will never forget.
