Backward Glass by David Lomax
I am quite a book nerd...BUT because of school and all that, I hadn't been reading as much as I'd like to. Sooo...I went to the library for the first time in like A YEAR and randomly picked out David Lomax's BackwardGlass. And holy crap, what a magical ride that was! I literally could not put the book down! Such a great plot...so very twisted and mind blowingly amazing! It was like fate brought me to such an amazing novel. I hope the author keeps writing more books this fucking fantastic! I could so see this book come alive as a fantast film! Ah that would be pretty awesome eh? (the author is canadian...)
Reading the summary of the book got me so interested. Like this random boy finds a dead baby with a note from the future? And then there this tale of a someone named 'Prince Harming' who is a pontential threat to the protagonist. And he meets other 'Mirror kids' like himself and they all put this puzzle together and time travel to save a baby from dying? HMmm. I was so fucking confused at first but damn, the book got even more confusing. But I caught on after a few chapters. So many twsits and turns that made me gasp and keep reading till almost four in the morning!
Questions. I do have some burning questions: oh and ofc some additional statements:
1. Is David Lomax going to write a sequel?
2. Is there any other books the author is working on atm?
3. Why was Curtis called "Prince Harming"? Is it because he was harmful to the kids? Hmm. maybe? it never said in the book but I just asuumed that
4. Poor Rick. I wish he could time travel like Jimmy.
5. John Ward! Poor lad! I wish he would find happiness. He had the most struggle being from like the 17th century. smh
6. Luka and Kenny. wow. I deff saw this coming. Lovely ending to the novel. I loved every inch of it. Made me smile from ear to ear.
7. I hated Rose's mother. Ugh
8. So Luka's grandmother was Peggy?
9. The starwars references SO made my day!
10. When Connor came at the end from 2017, I loved his slang lol. You could so tell he was from the 21st century AHA
11. It's so funny that in this novel the author never really tells you anything...basically, you just figure everything out or put the puzzles together yourself which was pretty fun to do. Very unique way of writing which I loved. xo
Well, I would continue and babble on but...I've got an important place to be tomorrow. Can't be late! ;) So I bid thee farewelll. (Oh gosh I think John Ward aka Obiwan is starting to rub off on me haha)- Dor xox
