The book for this week is
Carlos Ruiz Zafón's first book that has recently been translated into English;
The Prince of Mist. It is a young adult book, but Zafón was really clever by making it interesting for adults as well. This novel has a lot in common with old horror stories, where the suspense is bigger than the actual scary passages.
The book is about Max and his family who move to a small seaside town in Spain to flee the war. There they uncover a story about the old residents of the house and about the boy and his grandfather who live in the lighthouse. It's a very suspenseful novel about keeping your promises and what happens when you don't.
