Almost 15 years since I Am the Messenger was originally published, it still stands just as strong. Markus Zusak is most well-known for The Book Thief, but this is my favorite of his books. The main character, Ed, is written with a strong voice that will hook you from the beginning, and once you're swept up in the mystery of the playing cards, you won't want to stop reading. (When I read this for the first time, it was devoured in one sitting.) Recommended for those who enjoyed John Green & David Arnold!
