Skygoddess1 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Sorry I‘ve been MIA. Been really busy with work and I‘m afraid things aren‘t so great right now at home, but I‘m hoping everything will be better this weekend. 2y

I feel Guillermo Del Toro had a very active part in designing this book. Everything about it is beautiful: the endpapers, glossy black pages, faux letters, design sketches. If you are a fan of him or the movie, I highly recommend this book. I love all the fold outs and other documents. I probably re-read this once a year. Planning on watching the movie this week too!

This is one of my favorite movies. I love Gothic horror but it really the costumes and set in this movie that I fall for. I probably pour over this book once a year.

For some Halloween's Eve (that's a thing, right?) reading, I'm revisiting this book about the masterpiece film CRIMSON PEAK. The book is huge and breathtaking. I love art of film books, but this one is a work of art all on its own. Get thee hence and read it!
