Wonders of the Invisible World by Christopher Barzak
5.0
A Magical Story
"Because here’s the thing: Death does come for everything. But Death can also be bargained with, if you know how to strike a deal."
This story wasn't only beautifully crafted but it was also beautifully written in a way that captures your heart whole.
It's about a seemingly normal kid, that lives in small-town Ohio, until one day an old friend comes back into his life. And with him, he rattles our main character's life completely.
This is one of those stories that sounds pretty lame in synopsis but incredible while reading it.
As the main character unravels his life and unveils the truth behind his family and the world he lives in. We as the reader, are also grasping at the breadcrumbs that are thrown at us, until it's complete.
This book is magical and nostalgic. One of my favorite magical realism books.
4.5 stars!!!
