My Never Ending List
My Never Ending List rated it 8 years ago
This was amazing! I loved monster and I loved Conor for not showing his fear of monster. Conor has enough fear in his life without monster adding to it. With his mother sick and his father in America, Conor believes that everything will be okay. His mother had assured Conor that everything will be f...

This one has been on my tbr for a year or two (or four) and I was not in a big hurry to get to it because of the whole “YA” thing. Not usually my bag. Luckily for me however, it went on sale and the audio was made available for a cheap add-on. I am a sucker for a deal, so I snatched it up and starte...

This review can also be found at Carole's Random Life.I liked this book even more the second time around. I first read this book several years ago and liked it then so when I saw the audio on sale earlier this month, I decided to revisit the story in audiobook. I really enjoyed the book the first ...

I enjoyed this story but I didn't love it. Throughout the whole story I wasn't feeling like I had to continue reading, which I thought I would get because it was so hyped up. The ending was very touching, and I think that the way the story was written to explain what was going on and what Conor is g...

It's close to Halloween, I said. I should read this book with "Monster" in the title, I said. I'm not a Halloween story, the book said. I'm a rip-out-your-heart-and-stomp-on-it coming of age story. *riiiiiiiiiiip* *stompstompstompstomp* Ouch. My totally unprepared feelings! :'( There is a lot ...

Well, I'm not ok after reading this omg. This was a horrible story, and by "horrible," I mean it tore out my heart, ripped it to shreds, stomped on the pieces, then gathered them up in a bin and offered them back to me. Like I can just put the pieces back together and be fine.I knew basically nothin...

Everyone is raving about this book. It is suppose to stay in your heart, make you cry. It is suppose to break you . So obviously me and my oversensitive personality (that could even cry over an dr. Phil episode) had high expectations.For a short book like this, it deals with a lot of heavy topics:...

The book is so captive from the beginning. It's not long, only 200 pages, with illustrations here and there. I cannot put down the book until I finished it. It's quite mystery from the very beginning, also to the end. The ending is unexpected although you know that the monster definitely would have ...

My heart is aching. So before I get emotional here, I just wanted to say that I didn’t expect this book to have such an effect on me. I thought this was just a children’s book. From the title alone, I wound not pick this up, but after watching the movie trailer (by chance), I decided to read it im...
