“I always describe this book as the perfect balance between literary fiction and airplane reading. Told through the eyes of a boy who has grown up in captivity, held in a small room with his kidnapped mother, Room is thrilling and thoughtful, and it plays with the mother-child relationship, gender, captivity, postmodernism, television and the media, and the ways in which we come to interpret the world around us. Because this novel is so smart and fast paced, Iโd recommend it to those who loved Gillian Flynnโs Gone Girl. ”
— Megan • Underground Books
