Blurb from the cover:
It’s Jack’s birthday, and he’s excited about turning five. He lives with his Ma in Room, which has a locked door and a skylight, and measures 11 feet by 11 feet. He loves watching TV, and the cartoon characters he calls friends, but he knows that nothing he sees on screen is truly real - only him, Ma and the things in Room. Until the day Ma admits that there’s a world outside...

This book started out brilliantly, the concept and the writing was haunting and heartbreaking when told from the perspective of Jack. Unfortunately for me this didn’t carry through in the second half which was disappointing.

Added to Mt. TBR. Will be released to a good home once I've read.

A wonderfully thought out novel, it’s really well written from the perspective of Jack, the child protagonist. I think I missed out because I found out too much about it prior to reading it, I think it would have been better not knowing. I’ll therefore not say anymore in case I spoil it for anyone else.

Posted to a non-bookcrossing friend of mine who was interested in reading the book after watching the film.

The book was an interesting read and did make me have alot of emotion for the characters, however the book was abit slow for me. Also some of the characters frustrated me and I wonder why the author chose to portray that in the book. But anyway i imagine alot of people would enjoy this book with how its written in Jacks point of view. Thanks 😊 Katie.
