A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness

4.0

A Monster Calls is the heartbreaking story about an adolescent boy's journey towards pain, loss, hope, and growing up. The writing was fantastic, the story was very engaging and kept me turning it page after page until I reached the end. Life is not easy, it throws a lot of hardships towards each and every person, and each person has their own way of coping and dealing with those life changing events. Such is the premise of this book, the protagonist is put through a journey that only he can go through, in order for it to lead him towards his destination and the revelations he makes as his journey reached its end.
