The Bone Dragon is my favourite book of the year hands down so far. It's scary and wonderful and intriguing and a must read.
Evie has a rib removed and carves it into a little dragon. The dragon soon becomes an influence in her life that becomes more powerful and angry.
The Bone Dragon is fantastically intriguing. It gripped me from the start as it drops hints about the plot in the future. I just haven't read a book like that in a very long time. As the book reaches the end I wanted to know what was about to happen and why can't more books be like this.
The Dragon was a fantastic character. I loved the fact it came from a part of her and her past and even the way it talks is wonderful. It was my favourite character because it was so complex and it's relationship with Evie was different because he is part of her.
The plot unravelled beautifully. It had just the right pace with just the right amount of reveals and this book is so perfect. The plit was complex yet simple.
It created these situations you could empathise to because you recognised them, that feeling of third wheeling and hating your bully and when people don't get your personal life. It's absolutely fantastic.
The best bit undoubtedly is the fact you can't work out if the book is fantasy or a psychological thriller and as a result the ending is phenomenal.
You HAVE to read this book.
