The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness
5.0
Terrifying, Exhilarating and Heartbreaking......
Prentisstown isn't like any other town and neither is their world like ours. This dystopian story takes place in the New world ( with two moons! ) where there is a germ which makes the thoughts of the men audiable to everyone, making their thoughts sound like noise, and this isn't the only peculiarity, this world only has men and no women, but this is something our protagonist has always been told, but only a month away from his 13th birthday, in the swamp Todd Hewitt finds a quiet spot, away from all the noise, a silence he can and cannot hear, he finds a girl; and from this point, he starts his adventure to reach the town of Haven, and his journy to become man.
If I could, I would press this book on each and every person I know. It really doesn't matter if you don't read dystopian or adventrous book, no matter which genre of books ye love the best, something about this book engulfs you into it.
Read this book!
Patric Ness is a great story teller and hence this book, a great story with a slow but steady pace.
Brimming over with ideas about adolescence, faith, free will, unsaid love and hope, this book is intelligent and would love to recommend it to everyone. Don't hesitate and pick this book.
"There aint nothing good that don't got real bad waiting to follow it" You-may-cry-alot alert.
p.s. The spelling mistakes in this book aren't annoying at all and I don't know why but the spelling mistakes made the book more intriguing and un-put-down-able!
