The Giant's House by Elizabeth McCracken
5.0
I was standing in the aisle at the library waiting for my daughter when I saw this book on the shelf and decided I would take it home. It was an amazing read. It was unusual and odd: happy and sad and had a bit of black humor here and there. Everything I love in a book.
Taking place in the fifties in New England, librarian Peggy has all the characteristics of a spinster in the making. She meets a boy who is a giant, and their relationship blossoms from there. It had some twists and turns I didn't expect, and I loved that.
