I read the whole thing in one sitting today. I couldn't put it down. It was amazing and haunting and very moving.
I'm sure that it would not have had such an impact on me before I was a mom. It was written from her son't point of view but I felt it from the mother's.
That's all I'll say. I don't want to spoil anything! But for those who haven't read it: it's a must!!
Re: Has anyone here read "Room"?
Emma Donoghue. Warning: it's very heavy (emotionally). Enjoy!!

Yes, I read it for book club this past Winter.
I loved it, but I felt like the ending was missing....something. I wanted to know more and perhaps that was the goal, but I still felt like it ended too abruptly.
This is exactly how I felt.
