kateems on January 20, 2010 at 2:51pmkateems favorited and commented on Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close on getglue.comI read this book about two years ago and I still often think about the protagonist, the young and precocious Oskar. Having such a young narrator could easily veer into hokey or tedious territory but somehow Oskar's voice remains lovable and reliable throughout. He's an unforgettable little guy, and his story will tug on your heartstrings with tiny fists.
