This book was very good and scary.

The end becomes a new chapter.

Stunningly beautiful, but achingly heart wrenching. Conjures up evoking images and allows one's imagination to steam the story ahead. You don't want to hear the next stages, but is necessary - as is the need with grief. The resignation by the book's main character allows him to heal.
A must for anyone going through a similar experience as with anxiety and depression.

A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness

What an absolutely incredible and heartfelt book. Connor and his monster are unforgettable. Highly recommend. Although this is classified as YA, all ages will find this book and Connor endearing.
