Room by Emma Donoghue

Apparently this book was very hype at one point. I didn't know, but I saw it on a list of scary books for the scary season, and I very much enjoyed it. Another juicy one, our narrator is a little boy who spends the first five years of his life in a cork-lined shed with his mom. They're held prisoner by a rapist.

Eventually our hero has to learn the difference between TV and a real world he's never before encountered. Even if you've seen the movie and thought it was cheesey, I wouldn't shy away from Room. It's a fun trip.
