3.75 Absolutely beautiful. 
 Room is the story of a Little boy Jack and his Ma's life so far. They are trapped in a room after Ma was snatched by Old Nick. 
 Jack is born into Room and it is his entire world, his Ma is fierce and protects and teaches him and keeps him as healthy and happy as she can while looking for a way out to save them both. 
 Room is told from Jacks POV so the writing is simplistic but surprisingly deep and meaningful the descriptors are all that of a 5 year old who doesn't understand everything in life but by his own reasoning we know what is going on in the story. 
 When I started on the first sentence I was a bit worried about having a 5 year old narrator but the story was impeccable and wouldn't have the same impact if it was told by anyone else. 
 What I really loved about this story was the emotions and underlining themes of what is real. All through the story I couldn't stop thinking about how a parents world is a child's world. Children don't know better if I was raised in one room and heard about amazing things outside I would be able to imagine them either. One of my favorite descriptive scenes was when Jack was trying to figure out how all the things on TV were arranged Outside. 
 How did they stick to the ground? Where did the ocean go? Was is swirling and floating everything around? 
 There were heartbreaking parts and I was on my edge of my seat (view spoiler)[ I was so scared about Jack pretended to be dead, and then scared that the cops wouldn't save Ma in time (hide spoiler)] 
 This story was beautiful and really showed the courage of human strength and the damage people are left with after such traumatic experiences. 
 The ending was perfect for me although I wouldn't mind a epilogue showing Jack as a teenager or adult.
