    What a heart-wrenching story. It was difficult to read because it is written through the eyes of an innocent child whose world-view consists of a "room". I think it made it even harder to know what is happening as a reader, although the child does not comprehend it. I highly recommend this, but not to the light-hearted readers as this is not a "light" read.

    I've been touched by this book in so many ways!! It had been a while since a book moved memuch, it haunted me for days!.

    "ROOM (2010) is the story of a five-year-old called Jack, who lives in a single room with his Ma and has never been outside. When he turns five, he starts to ask questions, and his mother reveals to him that there is a world outside. "

    The whole book is told in Jack's voice and thoughts as a 5 years old who never went to school dand as his own world his own language. The bond he has with his mother is extraordinary. I'm not a mother just yet but i could feel the book just like i was. The bond between them, they're incredible relationship.. wow wow.

    This book is suspensefull, touching, funny disturbing i didnt want to stop reading.
