Book+Review

​ //I Am The Messenger// by Markus Zusak is a story of adventure and discovery. From the very first message, the reader is thrust into a world of mystery and suspense that surrounds the main character, Ed Kennedy. Zusak's writing style is unconventional, yet fitting for this unique tale. The audience is able to connect with the characters extremely well due to their down-to-earth personalities and seemingly ordinary lifestyles. As the novel progresses, the characters reveal their complexities and Ed discovers the secrets of his messages. Ed uncovers information about others, including his closest friends, but also reveals his true self.

 The book is easy to read and quite difficult to put down. The reader will constantly wonder who is behind Ed's mission, and each message will get you closer and closer to the answer. A thriller from start to finish, //I Am the Messenger// never disappoints. It will keep you guessing up to the very end and leave you wanting more of this fantastic novel.
