An enchanting story, masterfully told, The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune is about the profound experience of discovering an unlikely family in an unexpected place – and realizing that family could be yours.
‘I loved it. It is like being wrapped up in a big gay blanket. Simply perfect’ – V. E. Schwab, author of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
He expected nothing. But they gave him everything . . .
Linus Baker leads a quiet life. At forty, he has a tiny house with a devious cat and his beloved records for company. And at the Department in Charge of Magical Youth, he’s spent many dull years monitoring their orphanages.
Then one day, Linus is summoned by Extremely Upper Management and given a highly classified assignment. He must travel to an orphanage where six dangerous children reside – including the Antichrist.
At the orphanage, Linus must somehow determine if they could bring about the end of days. But their guardian, the charming and enigmatic Arthur Parnassus, will do anything to protect his wards. And, as Arthur and Linus grow ever closer, Linus must choose: his duty, or his dreams . . .
The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune is an uplifting, heart-warming fantasy tale that’s become a New York Times, USA Today and Washington Post bestseller.

I loved this book. It had so many aspects I enjoyed: romance, little bit of adventure, sweet characters. This story really gives me hope and reminds me that all of us can find a place to belong in. I think this could also be a great read aloud storytimebook for kids who are struggling to find their place in life.

Such a sweet book. Very much fits into the "I want something light, silly, and heart-warming. "The world needs more books like this.

Couldn't finish. The book gets very preachy very quickly. It's predictable "underdog main character meets the perfect faultless hansom love interest" really didn't keep me interested. Also, this books should be directed to young adults tops.

A lovely, heartwarming gay fantasy book. A perfect little break from gay teenage coming-of-age books(which I also love, don’t get me wrong)
