Room - Thryft

Claustrophobic tale of love, freedom, and resilience.

"Room" is a testament to the human spirit's incredible capacity for adaptability and love. What makes this novel particularly striking is its perspective through five-year-old Jack, bringing an innocence and purity to the harrowing circumstances he and his mother endure. The stark contrast between their intimate world and the vast unknown they aim to reach makes for a deeply immersive experience, both harrowing and hopeful. It's an intense read, brimming with emotional depth and a narrative that promises to stay with you long after you turn the last page.
