The Friday 56 | A Monster Calls

Hosted weekly by Freda's Voice. 

Happy Friday!

Well, it's been a few weeks since last I participated in a Friday 56... But it's a new year—and time for me to get back into the swing of things. 

So, I'm starting off the year with A Monster Calls. I've been interested to read this one for many months—plus the movie looks quite good, too. I hope I can start reading it soon (fingers crossed).

ABOUT THE BOOK

The monster showed up after midnight. As they do. 

But it isn’t the monster Conor’s been expecting. He’s been expecting the one from his nightmare, the one he’s had nearly every night since his mother started her treatments, the one with the darkness and the wind and the screaming… 

This monster is something different, though. Something ancient, something wild. And it wants the most dangerous thing of all from Conor. 

It wants the truth.

What's a book you're eager to read this year?
