Description
Thirteen-year-old Conor O'Malley is grappling with a terrifying recurring nightmare and the harsh reality of his mother's terminal illness. When a monstrous yew tree from his dreams appears outside his window, it offers Conor a dangerous bargain: tell it his truth, and it will tell him its own. This powerful novel explores the complex landscape of grief, anger, and the difficult truths we must confront when facing loss. Patrick Ness masterfully weaves a tale of fantasy and raw emotion, delving into the nature of healing and the courage it takes to face the monsters within.
