The #1 New York Times bestseller An unflinching, darkly funny, and deeply moving story of a boy, his seriously ill mother, and an unexpected monstrous visitor. At seven minutes past midnight, thirteen-year-old Conor wakes to find a monster outside his bedroom window. But it isn't the monster Conor's been expecting - he's been expecting the one from his nightmare, the nightmare he's had nearly every night since his mother started her treatments. The monster in his backyard is different. It's ancient. And wild. And it wants something from Conor. Something terrible and dangerous. It wants the truth. From the final idea of award-winning author Siobhan Dowd - whose premature death from cancer prevented her from writing it herself - Patrick Ness has spun a haunting and darkly funny novel of mischief, loss, and monsters both real and imagined.

Den var inte så spännande för den var inte läskigt men jag vill ha lite läskigare

Mycket rörande historia med vackert språk och karaktärer som man blir investerade i. Mitt enda problem var väl att vissa saker inte agerade som äkta människor utan mer som metaforer, men det händer så ofta i fiktion och det förstörde inte boken. En mycket stark fyra.

Wow. En bok som verkligen berör på djupet. Jag var tvungen att dela upp läsningen på slutet för att inte grina för mycket.

Sanningen kan vara svår...Mörk, gripande och vacker med suggestiva bilder.
