The books I loved this year
Which is your #1 out of these books?
Probably The Troop
Thank you—I do love me some Lord of the Flies story 😁
Agree on The Troop. The characterization of those boys was way beyond the paint-by-numbers-Stranger Things brand.
It all felt very real.
The Troop is one of the few books that has been so visceral in its body horror that I found it hard to read. And I mean that as a compliment.
Also, When the Wolf Comes Home absolutely gutted me. So violent, so bleak, so SO good.
That ending!!
I liked The Troop a lot. Have to read the others! I really enjoyed The Ghost That Ate Us: The Tragic True Story of the Burger City Poltergeist, by Daniel Kraus.
I will need to check it out. Thanks for the rec.
