The Book of Strange New Things by Michel Faber

5.0

What a weird but wonderful book. Wasn't sure how I'd go with a doomsday undercurrent given it's a touch close to the bone in many ways, but the story was so compelling that it felt like escapism (albeit in a reality not as divorced from my own as I'd like!). The writing was imaginative, funny and original. Just a great page-turning read.
