  • I'm still reading it. But from the moment I got the book, I was fully blown away & speechless. This is an amazing book. Way exceeded my expectation.

    I will give four stars to the illustrations and how the author presented the story.

  • Another young adult book worth reading, the story is actually fairly short but sweet, it's the illustrations that make this book amazing (and it has tons of illustrations since part of the story is told through the pictures).

ORPHAN, CLOCK KEEPER, AND THIEF, Hugo lives in the walls of a busy Paris train station, where his survival depends on secrets and anonymity. But when his world suddenly interlocks with an eccentric, bookish girl and a bitter old man who runs a toy booth in the station, Hugo's undercover life, and his most precious secret, are put in jeopardy. A cryptic drawing, a treasured notebook, a stolen key, a mechanical man, and a hidden message from Hugo's dead father form the backbone of this intricate, tender, and spellbinding mystery.
