Girl in the Walls by A. J. Gnuse - Book Review

Image
I had expected Girl in the Walls to be a gothic thriller, perhaps with ghostly goings-on in the vein of Sarah Perry or Laura Purcell, and was very pleasantly surprised to discover this is a literary thriller, whose story leaps off the page and demands to be read to its conclusion. While reading, I could easily imagine this book in movie form.  Elise is a young orphan, returned to the house she considered her true home, though as another family now lives there, she survives by secreting herself in the walls.Her occupancy does not go wholly unnoticed: Eddie, the younger of two teenage boys, often thinks he sees someone from the corner of his eye. An awkward boy, he wonders if the presence is a figment of his overactive imagination. Until his boisterous older brother confesses that he's noticed things too.  I truly don't want to share any more of this fast-paced plot. Suffice to stay that events unfold which spiral out of control and put the lives of all the main protagonists in ...

Memoirs of an Imaginary Friend - Book Review

Image
You have to be the bravest person in the world to go out every day, being yourself when no one likes who you are... Memoirs of an imaginary Friend  is a very special book. Deliciously funny, terrifying and heartbreaking in equal measure, I discovered it at the perfect time and took away much more than the simple pleasure of a well-told story. Budo is our narrator. He is Max's imaginary friend, and is unlike most of the other "friends" he's encountered. He's much much older for a start: most "friends" disappear after only a few months, some after only a few minutes. Budo is five years old, because Max has needed him for much longer than most children need an imaginary ally. Max attends school, like all other children his age, but he has different needs to most of his peers. Sometimes he gets "stuck", when he's overwhelmed or frightened; he attends the "Learning Centre" for targeted support, and his mum wants to involve a psycholog...
