Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran FoerMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
After seeing ads for the movie, I decided to read the book. It was a hard book to read--it kept jumping from the child's (Oskar) point of view to his grandmother's and his grandfather's. It would take a paragraph or so to figure out who was telling the story. It was disappointing--hopefully, the movie is better.
Oskar's father dies on Sept. 11, 2001 in the World Trade Center. Oskar finds a key in his father's closet and begins a search to find who and what it belongs to--hoping for a connection with his father.
This book belongs to me and was purchased with a gift card from Barnes & Noble.
