Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer

5.0

One of my favorite books ever. I was reluctant to read a story with a synopsis that says only that the story is about a nine year old on a mission to find a lock to his father who passed away on 9-11's key. But I was amazed. This writing style was Foer's best yet. The book includes several reoccurring images, diaries, native, and letters that keep you on the edge of your seat the entire book. Not only that but I found myself loving this nine year old boy like he was a friend of mine.
