is an amazing novel that I read in one sitting. The ripped from the headlines premise is the story of Jack, a five-year-old boy and his Ma. They live in an eleven foot square shed and are captives of a man known as Old Nick. The hook? It's told from the Jack's point of view. Everything he knows - and loves - is in the room. His routine (breakfast before bath), and activities are all normal to him.
Shocking, tender, and unique, this book knocked my socks off. 76/100

Can I borrow it? I can't wait til you read Still Alice. You're probably done already :)
