It’s really hard to describe this book. It was weird. It was gross. But it was also awesome and wonderful.

2. Coraline by Neil Gaiman

The plot of this book was nothing like I’ve read before. This is a very creepy children’s book and it is very well written feels very real.

3. Mudmen – The Quest For Humanity by Shitij Sharma

This book is an excellent take on the question, “What happens when the world ends?” It is a very short read but extremely intriguing. I will be posting a review of it soon.

4. The Reflections of Queen Snow White by David Meredith

This book was a huge surprise for me. I didn’t expect the plot to be so unique and refreshing. The writing is beautiful in this book and it is very easy to get through. I have also done a full review of it here.

5. Constant Guests by Partricia Nedelea

This book is an amazing mixture of Historical Fiction and Magic. It has a lot of story lines and has so much depth that if there’s one book I would call completely unique, it’s this one. I have also done a full review of it here.

  1. I am so happy to see this comment thread because it is about one of my favourite books – Coraline. I agree it’s an amazing book. You should also read Gaiman’s “The Graveyard Book” – another fantasy book similar to “The Jungle Book”. I’m sure you’ll love it.
