Chilling tale of friendship, victimhood, and vampirism.

If you're into stories that blend the eerie with the emotional, "Let the Right One In" is a must-read. It merges the supernatural with a poignant story of two outsiders forging an unlikely friendship. Lindqvist creates a narrative that’s as much about the everyday struggles of childhood as it is about the horror of vampirism, making it a darkly endearing novel that stays with you long after the last page.

Description

Oskar and Eli. In very different ways, they were both victims. Which is why, against the odds, they became friends. And how they came to depend on one another, for life itself. Oskar is a 12 year old boy living with his mother on a dreary housing estate at the city’s edge. He dreams about his absentee father, gets bullied at school, and wets himself when he’s frightened. Eli is the young girl who moves in next door. She doesn’t go to school and never leaves the flat by day. She is a 200 year old vampire, forever frozen in childhood, and condemned to live on a diet of fresh blood. John Ajvide Lindqvist’s novel is a unique and brilliant fusion of social novel and vampire legend, a deeply moving fable about rejection, friendship and loyalty.
