The Chocolate War

Emma Hak-Kovacs

A new sickness invaded Jerry, the sickness of knowing what he had become, another animal, another beast, another violent person in a violent world, inflicting damage, not disturbing the universe but damaging it.”

“He hated to think of his own life stretching ahead of him that way, a long succession of days and nights that were fine - not good, not bad, not great, not lousy, not exciting, not anything.”

This is the kind of book that makes you question everything,makes you woder how things really are. But that's no surprise. I gathered that from the premise, which is why I want into this novel with high expectations. And it did not dissappoint. I love everything about it. The writing style is just how I like it, the plot is simple enough,without being boring, and the characters are relatable. When I say I love everything about it, even the "villains", I do not mean that I admire them,or even that I approve of what they do. Not in the least. However, they are the kind of charcters that I love to hate, to be absolutely grossed out by. 
To me, this book is one of the few that I would not change anything about.
