A bold and irreverent YA novel that powerfully reminds us that there are many different types of remarkable, The Rest of Just Live Here is from novelist Patrick Ness, author of the Carnegie Medal- and Kate Greenaway Medal-winning A Monster Calls and the critically acclaimed Chaos Walking trilogy.
What if you aren't the Chosen One? The one who's supposed to fight the zombies, or the soul-eating ghosts, or whatever the heck this new thing is, with the blue lights and the death?
What if you're like Mikey? Who just wants to graduate and go to prom and maybe finally work up the courage to ask Henna out before someone goes and blows up the high school. Again.
Because sometimes there are problems bigger than this week's end of the world, and sometimes you just have to find the extraordinary in your ordinary life.
Even if your best friend is worshipped by mountain lions.

Hur är det för alla de som inte är ”den utvalda”? Det är vad Ness försöker skildra i den här boken. Det är helt klart en intressant vinkel där vi får följa vad som kan pågå vid sidan av en klassisk hjältehistoria. Lockades verkligen av idén och jag tycker boken var underhållande, men tycker inte att den riktigt når sin fulla potential, med tanke på hur bra konceptet är.

Fantastisk idé som tyvärr inte riktigt klarar av att leva upp till förväntningarna.
