![]() ![]() I loved the Chaos Walking trilogy from Patrick Ness (starts with The Knife of Never Letting Go, a book that gutted me in a serious way), and I knew that A Monster Calls was inspired by an idea from Ness’ friend and fellow author, Siobhan Dowd, who was planning to write a book based on this idea but passed away before she was able to do so. I’ve been wanting to read this book for what feels like forever. And this visitor isn’t what he was expecting – this monster is physically harmless, but wants the one thing Conor is unable, unwilling to give – the truth. But one night, when he wakes from the middle of the dream at the same place he always wakes, a visitor is waiting for him. Beginning when Conor’s mother first got sick, he’s had the same terrifying dream every single night. ![]()
