Book Review: The Boy Who Steals Houses

Here we are with the review. I said a while back that I was going to do a review on The Boy Who Steals Houses. It should be spoiler free.

Hope you find this review helpful! 

Sam is a young boy wondering the streets. Stealing to survive. Trying to take care of his brother, trying to find a home or steal one. His past is bound to catch up with him and it my hurt all his chances of finding a home. 

The good things

First of all I can say I like the way this book reads, even although it is in present tense which I normal don't like. I like the description and the characters very much (even if I dislike some of them for a while.) Sam is so precious. The story is so sad and so real. The ending was awesome. This is hard to put into words.... The theme is good.

The bad things

What can I say? This book would have been perfect is not for a few things. First of all the language, just no. Ever single page seemed to have some bad word. It just isn't necessary. I also didn't like the mention of a boy having and ex-boyfriend. It is not looked on as a bad thing either, more like that was just normal. It is not normal. Than there are some kissing and other uncomfortable stuff that did not have to be in the book. Some times I was like OK and other times I was like no! Not needed.

Conclusion

I enjoyed this book. I have been busy so finding time to read was hard, but I got it read. It made me a little sad and a little angry. It is such a complex book. I love the family Sam meets although they could be nicer to each other, some things where a little harsh. I think it should be for readers 15 and up.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 stars.

It sure took me a while to get some good books for the questions. Here we go....

Snow White: "This book (like the movie) started it all"
Favorite Debut Book From an Author


       
Love this book! 

Cinderella: "A diamond in the rough"
Just Like Cinderella, You Either Didn’t Expect Much Out of This Character in the Beginning But Turned Out to Be a Total Gem  

      
Both the book and characters are a gem!

Aurora: "Sleeping Beauty"
A Book That Makes You Sleepy or Just Could Not Hold Your Attention

  

Most nonfiction books are hard to read, but this one is fiction, but I could never get into it.

Ariel: "Under the Sea
A Book With a Water/Ocean Setting

          

The book is set near the sea, on an island.

Belle: "Beauty and the Beast"
Name a Book With the Best Bookworm/Book Lover

      
       
Come on there are a lot of book lovers in this story. Even if some do not want to read out loud...

Jasmine: "The thief and the princess"
Name Book with an Unlikely Love Story (Either in Terms of Romance or a Book You Didn’t Expect to Love So Much)

    

This one has both. I did not think I would love this book so much!

Pocahontas: "The real life princess"
Name a Book that is Based on a Real Life Person You Want to Read/Have Read

                   
I have seen the movie, I would like to read the story of Pearl Carter.

Mulan: "The princess that saved her country"

Bella is an awesome hero. This is good book!
Tiana: "The princess with the coolest and most diverse crew"
Name a diverse book whether it is a diverse set of characters (like Tiana’s group of Naveen, Louis, Ray, and more) or just diverse in general.

    

A great crew of diverse characters, like a monster and a crow.

Rapunzel: "Let your loooong hair down"
Name the Longest Book You’ve Ever Read


    

This is one of the longest I own anyway.... 676 pages.

Merida: "I determine my own fate"
A Book Where There is No Love Story/Interest or Isn’t Needed


                  
         
The character dose not want a prince just like Merida. She would rather live with dragons.

Anna and Elsa: "Frozen hearts"
A Book in a Winter/Cold Setting

   

It's a winter setting, they are stuck in the train with snow all around, and a mystery to be solved.

Moana: "How far I’ll go"

Most of the story is full of a journey. It's a cool book.
