Beautiful Book
This is a beautifully written book with a lot of depth! If you like fairytales with a dark twist, you'll love The Book of Lost Things. I loved it. However, I wouldn't recommend it for kids as it has a lot of content that can be disturbing. Great book overall though!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Absolutely Stunning Literary Masterpiece
Whatever age you are, if you love fantasy (especially slightly frightening fantasy), this book will delight you. It's just incredible & it's John Connolly at his best. This is basically a portal fantasy unlike anything you have read before. WWII is a backdrop, functioning symbolically as well. Oh man, this book is just so darn good--just read it immediately regardless of what age you are.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

John Connolly's The Book of Lost Things
I recently read John Connolly's THE BOOK OF LOST THINGS and loved it. It's an unheralded fantasy classic that should get a lot more play than it does. Along with John Crowley's LITTLE, BIG, Connolly's book deserves to be read and read again.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Love this book
Buying it as a gift. Some people don't like used books but I think it's kind of a waste to buy otherwise! Plus this book has history of where it came from which I think is kind of fun. Good condition, no torn pages. The cover had been nicely protected.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Not just another fractured fairy tale! Inspired in part by fairy tales but grounded in reality. Suspenseful with complex characters.
One of my favorite books this year.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
