Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close

by Jonathan Safran Foer

I loved this book! Really, really loved it! I've never read a character that has been this well written. It's really amazing. Seriously. I can't even...

Now, I've seen the movie trailer a couple of times, and while I found it interesting, I never really felt the need to pick up this book. For some reason, I thought it would be too vague a storyline and would get confusing with the "find the right lock for this key"-part. I could've easily been a lot of description.
It wasn't.
If only I could have that first time experience with this book again, that'd be amazing. This takes "what a beautiful story" to a whole new level! I loved Oskar, Mr. Black, the rent-guy and every other character of this book.

This book has a lot of different fonts and pictures, which all adds to the incredible story, and that's one of the reasons this book will forever be with me.

This is a favorite again, and I know for sure that I'll reread it at least a couple of times. Yes, it was that good. You should all pick up this book and give it a try.
