Hey guys!!
I’ve decided to write a book review (finally)!! It’s on the book Twilight in the Land of Nowhen (if you hadn’t guessed already).
(*Drumroll and a round of applause, please*)
So, without any further delay, let’s begin!
Title: Twilight in the Land of Nowhen
Author: Nury Vittachi
Genre: Fiction
Science Fiction
Speculative Fiction
Storyline:
Are you a naturally shy person or do you speak your mind out loud? Have you ever felt so shy that you refused to speak to anyone at a public gathering?
Meet Simon Poopoo, a young boy with an unfortunate name, a boy who is incredibly different from the rest. A bad sort of different. He’s been teased and ridiculed his whole life. Even his own father doesn’t seen to understand the issue with him. But, as Ms. Blit tries her best to cure the incurable problem he has had since birth, how much will she sacrifice to save the boy cut away from time?
My Thoughts:
I think this book is amazing (even though it wasn’t very thick). I relate to Simon a little, because I’m extremely shy when it comes to people, and so I find myself in quite a lot of awkward situations.This book is written in first person, which makes the feelings even more real. The suspense and the science to this is just breathtaking and makes the book unputdownable. One of my most favourite things in this book is the pages of scientific proof given in between the story which supports the story and makes it more believable. I feel that all the characters are very well developed, except Mr. Poopoo. I think he isn’t that credible because it’s hard to think of a father who would be so insensitive to his son’s problems. Other than that, I love this fantastic book and really can’t resist reading it again and again!!
All in all, if you like science fiction and suspense, this book is a must read for you. It’s a good read no matter how many times you read it! If you liked George’s Secret Key to the Universe, you’ll definitely love this book!
My Rating
4.5 out of 5
That’s it for today!! This is my first book review ever, so I hope you liked it! If you like this post or have any suggestions, please comment!
