This is the story of a boy who discovers a creature, named Skellig, in the garage of his new house. It is hard to know if the creature is some sort of human, animal, angel, or what. Whatever it is, discovering it, helping to take care of it, leads him to think of Skellig more as an angel.
This book is kind of hard to describe. There's so much packed into it. But I greatly enjoyed it. It made me think. There is one thing discussed often that I especially liked: evolution. People are thought to be descended from apes, and there is some evidence to back it up. But we have shoulder blades that might suggest wings. Perhaps people have some angel in them? This is a big part of the book.
That's all I have to say for this book besides "go out and read it!" Good night. If possible, go out tonight and see the meteor shower. It's at it's peak.
