At the Edge of the Universe by Shaun David Hutchinson
4.0
I'm not exactly sure what I just read.
This book was engaging and absolutely something I couldn't put down. At first it seemed like science fiction, but now I'm not so sure. I have to say, I was incredibly engaged in all aspects of the story, BUT I really can't say I understood it. I don't understand why things happened the way they did, or what anything meant. I think the book is kind of supposed to be a giant metaphor, or not exactly a metaphor but the events Ozzie goes through all culminate at the end of the book, and it's kind of up for interpretation what really happened. I got a feel kind of like that of [b:We Were Liars|16143347|We Were Liars|E. Lockhart|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1402749479s/16143347.jpg|21975829], especially reaching the end of the book.
All I'm going to say is, I need a Harry Potter fix to get this out of my head, because it was all just really weird. I'm not saying it wasn't good, because the writing and the story were pretty phenomenal, but it was incredibly weird.
