My Favorite Thing Is Monsters: Book Two (My Favorite Thing is Monsters, #2)
by Emil Ferris (Goodreads Author) |
|
| I was happy to immerse myself again in Ferris's deliriously beautiful and terrifying world. This volume was a little more upbeat than Vol. 1, perhaps unrealistically so (I didn't quite buy the new girlfriend), and it left many loose ends. I'm hoping ...more | |

by Emil Ferris (Goodreads Author) |

This book is insanely, indescribably brilliant. The pictures are great. The story is great. There are two protagonists. One is ten-year-old Karen, a self-described monster, who is remarkably effective at coping with the everyday horrors that come her ...more |

| Oh, my gosh, these are all so good! A few describe the kind of rooming-house squalor that many of us (including, presumably, the author) experience while young and poor. A few explore dysfunctional romantic/sexual relationships. And a few reveal the ...more | |

| It was fun to travel with Keefe among humans, and I liked catching up with Alvar. Question: Are there plants and animals that exist both in the Lost Cities and in our world? Sophie didn't seem to encounter any. Yet Keefe knew what a pineapple was. An ...more | |

“You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive.”

“This sentence has five words. Here are five more words. Five-word sentences are fine. But several together become monotonous. Listen to what is happening. The writing is getting boring. The sound of it drones. It’s like a stuck record. The ear demands some variety. Now listen. I vary the sentence length, and I create music. Music. The writing sings. It has a pleasant rhythm, a lilt, a harmony. I use short sentences. And I use sentences of medium length. And sometimes, when I am certain the reader is rested, I will engage him with a sentence of considerable length, a sentence that burns with energy and builds with all the impetus of a crescendo, the roll of the drums, the crash of the cymbals–sounds that say listen to this, it is important.”
