Memoirs Of An Imaginary Friend

„Memoirs of an Imaginary Friend“ is a wonderfully unique book about the power of imagination, friendship and selflessness. Budo has been alive for six years, which is quite a long time for an imaginary friend. That’s because Max is indeed one of the smartest boys he knows, but also one of the kids who are in need of a little more help than others. When something terrible happens to Max, Budo is the only one who can save him. Not being visible to anybody except the young boy, this means that he has to get creative… I’ve had my eye on this book for quite a while now and am so glad that I finally got around to reading it. I loved the unique point of view and enjoyed Budo’s way of narrating a lot. His train of thoughts and concerns are easily comprehensible and his development over the course of the story is just great. I can’t really say much about the storyline itself without giving anything away, but let me just say that due to the way it’s told, it feels much more extraordinary than it would have otherwise. Due to the easy language, this book is also a great read for non-native English-speakers. If you love unique characters, you should definitely read this book!
