Then one day, Linus is summoned by Extremely Upper Management and given a highly classified assignment. ETA: Seeing as this is getting some traction I thought I would add some links of places you can donate to support survivors(all these links I originally found through lisa. I didn't find it very funny, there didn't seem to be any lurking themes that weren't outright told to you, and it's a book where Nothing Bad Ever Happens.

All of the children are unique, from Sal who is nervous at the thought of meeting with and being around new people and, when startled, transforms into a Pomeranian to Talia, a confident green-fingered garden gnome who spends her time threatening harm to those who cause her offence.With Arthur, however, they’re given a chance at a childhood where they’re able to learn and play and express themselves without having to worry about being punished simply for existing. My taste aside, it just doesn't seem like something that could get so popular, and be so universally loved.

Being queer himself, Klune believes it's important—now more than ever—to have accurate, positive queer representation in stories. Initially, it’s obvious that Linus feels like a fish out of water, floundering and desperate for oxygen. The book highlights the dangers of bureaucracy, whilst also championing the power of the voices of the few, because even if just one person makes a stand, it can trigger a change. He will spend one month in the island and he will not examine the well beings of the children but he will also investigate the master Arthur Parnassus and the way of doing his job.And so when I stumbled upon this article about children being taken because they were different or they didn’t adhere to what standards people thought should be at the time , it was something that I couldn’t get out of my head and, but I didn’t want to co-opt, you know, a history that wasn’t mine. The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune is an uplifting, heart-warming fantasy tale that’s become a New York Times, USA Today and Washington Post bestseller. It is our intent and purpose to foster and encourage in-depth discussion about all things related to books, authors, genres, or publishing in a safe, supportive environment. For the first time, Linus breaks his all rules, empathizing with these kids, opening his heart to them.
