Book 43 of 2015 is Room by Emma Donoghue.
Another disturbing psychological thriller. This may be my new obsession to replace post apocalyptic fiction. Maybe.
This book is a unique idea based on recent events in the news. This book is good. It would have been brilliant if it had stopped half way through. You'll know where I mean once it happens.
This is a writing experiment and it is mostly executed well. It needed to stop earlier and didn't. Too much of a good thing and all.
3 rooms of 5.
Should I read this? For the writing, yes. For the predictable story, no.
What did I learn? Not everything needs to be wrapped up in a neat red ribbon. Psychological thrillers certainly fit in to that group.
