Found at my local goodwill. I so rarely see his books loose in the wild. One of my all time favorites is The City of Dreaming Books. I did not enjoy the sequel The Labyrinth of Dreaming books nearly as much though. It will be interesting to see what I think of this one.
I have never been more excited to read anything, EVER!! I came across this randomly on Scribd/Everand as an ebook. Once I read the first couple of pages and saw the artwork, I knew I had to find a physical copy ASAP. MelCat for the win. 💪🏽
Now if you'll excuse me, it's time to tie up my laces and embark on this journey. 👟
I have never been so happy to have stumbled upon a book by accident. This book is now one of my all time favorites. It made me laugh, cry, start with surprise, sigh with relief. I didnt want it to end. Whimsical fantasy. Lemony Snicket meets Tolkein with a dash of Dr. Seuss. I cannot give it enough praise. I imagine I will re-read this until it falls apart.

I'm saying goodbye to the forest for now. But I'm taking all it's advice with me ❤️ until next time, PNW.
Enjoyed almost a whole day of reading in the woods. Didn't see a single other person near our camp site. Had to do some exploring at the nearby creek, of course, but got through a lot of this delightful book the rest of the time. Gifford Pinchot National Forest.
Stumbled on this at my local book shop. I haven't heard of it before. I think its going to come with me while we go hiking and camping in the PNW for the next couple weeks 🥰
Somewhere between quirky fantasy and gothic/medieval horror. Having hopped from the first to the fourth in this series, it's intriguing to see the evolution, or difference, in style, both in the writing and illustrations. First had a Roald Dahl/Shel Silverstein look, this one is darker, more detailed, woodcut-like sketches. I believe the first is billed as YA, and this one isn't, which the body horror alone would account for! 1/?
