I am in my forties and I was so moved by this book that I cried and that hasn't happened to me in quite a while! This book is for anyone, old or young, that has an open mind to the incomprehensible. The power of this novel is that it allows the reader to understand that an angelic being may not adhere to the traditional standards we have been brought up to believe.

I THINK THAT SKELLIG IS A GOOD BOOK BUT AT THE BEGINING THE BOOK WAS INTERESTING AND WAS NOT ALL THAT UNREALISTIC AND THEN CAME THE PART THAT THE MAN IN THE GARAGE OTHERWISE KNOWN AS SKELLIG HAS WINGS WITH FEATHERS AND HE BECAME ALL GOOD AND HEALTHY AGIAN. THE BOOK MAKES SENSE BUT HAS TO BE FOLLOWED CAREFULLY. THIS BOOK I WOULD RECOMMEND

This book is amazing. We are reading this book in school right now. Every chapter you just want to read more and more. I reccomend this book to anyone. It is really mysterious and you have to take in account what is happening every minute, or you won'tnderstand the story or the plot.

Skellig wasn't too bad, but something about Michael really annoyed me. He cared so much about what other people thought of him and was so influenced by friends that it was getting to a point that he was becoming really really boring. Mina was a bit stuck up, rude and obnoxious, but everything else was great.

It was an amazing story about the love, courage, determination, imagination and the different points of view from the three main characters Michael, Mina and Skellig. in one word I would call this story UNFORGETABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I recommednd it to anyone who wants a good read
