"A boy drowns, desperate and alone in his final moments. He dies. Then he wakes, naked, bruised and thirsty, but alive. How can this be? And what is this strange, deserted place? As he struggles to understand what is happening, the boy dares to hope. Might this not be the end? Might there be more to this life, or perhaps this afterlife?"
Ever since I read ' A Monster Calls' by Patrick Ness I wanted to read more by him. Patrick Ness has such an amazing writing style that I haven't came across in a very long time.
This book was amazing. I went in completely blind, like completely, I didn't even know the genre (which came as a nice surprise). This book kept blowing my mind and when I finally thought too know what was going to happen I was so wrong and another twist happened in this book.
The world building was great. I could really imagine how everything looked in my head. I also loved the characters + character building.
I really don't want to say any more about this book because I don't want to spoil anything. All I can say is that I HIGHLY recommend you to read this!
