Book Review: Room

RoomRoom by Emma Donoghue

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I don't have too many thoughts on this book. I enjoyed it. I thought the narrator being a 5 year old boy was an interesting fresh idea. I liked that perspective because it made some subject matter that could have been very troubling, somehow seem okay. I felt like the ending was happy, but VERY realistic at the same time.

I've been tempted to read this but I'm afraid the subject matter will be too much for me! Still debating.....

Lisa, I felt exactly the same way, because I am really sensitive about this stuff, but it was totally fine. I think you should read it.
