As an MZD fan, I really wanted to love this, but I just didn‘t. The story is okay, but reading it feels clunky. There are 3 different ways you can read it and I feel like that nesting of the stories was detrimental to all variations, especially the shortest one. I also don‘t really like the look of the book. The art, for the most part, isn‘t my thing and the use of WordArt type fonts throughout just doesn‘t look good.

This book can be read three different ways. My bf read two of them to me on our first day off from hiking. MZD books are always fun and interactive.
As I mentioned in my previous post, a friend and I went book shopping on Saturday. Of course, I ended up buying a few things, including this. New Danielewski! I‘m so excited! 😄

Long shot ask - Anybody in the NYC (Strand bookstore) Nov 11 or Atlanta (Wrecking Bar Brewpub) Nov 13 areas wanna do me a huge favor and make my life? My favorite author is releasing this new book & doing a signing. I can‘t make it because of work. I‘d pay you for the book and the shipping and you‘d be making my whole life. And you‘d get to meet a brilliant author. #nyc #atlanta #houseofleaves #markzdanielewski

My favorite author is releasing a new book (tagged) and doing a signing. I can‘t make it to either location cause of work. I‘d pay you for the book and the shipping and you‘d be making my whole life.

Reading #TheLittleBlueKite again. This illustration gets me, every time. I can't wait for this to come out next month, so you all can read it, too. I need more people to talk to about it! #love #fear #Kai #kidlit #middlegrade #alsoadults #MarkZDanielewski #MZD
One thing I love about #TheLittleBlueKite is despite all the parts geared toward the youngest readers - there are multiple ways to read it - those of us who love #MarkZDanielewski 's other works have all kinds of things to find and pick apart or just enjoy. This is one of the illustrations that strikes me most, on initial reads. #TLBK #HouseofLeaves #OnlyRevolutions #T50YS #TheFamiliar #love #joy #fear #Kai #kites #flying #skies #kids #kidlit
I cannot tell you all how special a book this is. It's for children. It's for middle grades. And it's for adults. Depending upon which way you read it; there are at least three or four ways to read it. #joy #fear #loss #love #HouseofLeaves #HoL #OR #OnlyRevolutions #T50YS #TF #TheFamiliar #MZD #MarkZDanielewski #BeaHymnforGood
