I enjoyed this book much more than I thought I would. 

 This story follows Gregor who unexplainably turns into a bug and has to lean onto his family to help take care of him. However as time goes by we see the how pure the love Gregor has for his family. So it’s heartbreaking to see when his family sees this new transition in Gregor’s life as a burden. I really felt bad for Gregor during this entire story.
