The Neverending Story by Michael Ende

This is one of the best fantasy novels I have read so far that I want to get my own copy of it and carry it with me anywhere I go! Of course, I am exaggerating - I just want to see it on my bookshelf and get reminded of how inspiring and beautiful this story is. It definitely helped me escape the realities of life during the lockdown/quarantine period in 2020!

It's so easy and simple to understand because it does not try to be complex; it is trying to tell a story. It's very charming! Even after reading the book, it gave me a feeling that the story never ends - that it happens now - and this thought makes me happy! I mean, if this bookshop exists, I would go and do the same thing to be on the same adventure as Atreyu! It reignites my inner-child, I really love this book! 

Also, this book made me realize how important reading is to a child so I asked my nephew if he wanted to read a Fantasy book. I have never received a reply, but that is probably because he plays so much PS4 and other kids do nowadays in the technology-driven era, but once I get his attention, I am going to annoy him to read this book. He is going to hate me as an aunt, but I know he is going to love me anyway because of that. 😂
