Even though you know the ending is coming, the force of it isn’t lessened because of the good job the author did of building the emotional ties to the characters of Connor and his mom. The relationship between Connor and the Monster didn’t seem forced or unrealistic and there was a natural flow to the story. That being stated it doesn’t mean this book isn’t good because it is actually a very well done story with a great buildup of tension and emotion. I know some folks find them very therapeutic or cathartic but that is not me so I had force myself through this one. I admit I don’t usually read/listen to these types of stories because of the emotional drain they cause. A “one-timer” is a good or great book that I will only read once because it is too emotionally draining or intense for me to handle. This book is definitely on my “one-timer” list. ![]()
