The Wonder by Emma Donoghue


Emma Donoghue writes her words so deliberately—and it’s so clear with this book! The slower pace in the beginning matches the setting, Ireland before electricity. As you learn the story of a young girl supposedly surviving on no food and very little water, you can’t help but wonder about every character, their motives, and how this will end. Just lovely!
