Currently Reading: Extremly Loud & Incredibly Close

I first heard about this book from a review that Gabby over at The Gypsy Diaries did & immediately I was intrigued. The story takes place in New York about a year after 9/11 and it's about a nine year old named Oskar, who finds a mysterious key that belonged to his father (he died in the 9/11 attack). Upon finding the key Oskar embarks on a journey through New York with one goal, to find the lock that matches the key!

I am about 40 pages in and so far so good! Oskar is such a(n) intelligent and witty character & it makes me wonder what the heck was I doing at nine! Hopefully when I am done reading I will do a proper review of the book but if you can't wait that long (I am a slow reader you know) check out Gabby's review here.

Happy (almost) Weekend

one more day left, yippie!

    I want to know where the key goes...i'm easily intrigued with things like that. You must share your review when you're done :)
