I created a video explaining my slow decent into hating this series, book by book, for your viewing pleasure:




This is the book that broke the camels back. I started to hate this series from here on. If book 5 got your hopes up for something special, prepare for them to be ground into the mud. It's the same damn book. They all are. He just changes the amount of surrealism sprinkles he uses for each book.

Book Favorite

"A novel that has as its main character an Old Lady who is liberated from the boredom of her secure life at an eccentric home for elderly ladies when given a hearing trumpet — and whose wish to go to the North pole before she dies comes true in the most unlikely fashion — has to be good. Even though she is better known as one of the best painters of Surrealism Leonora Carrington’s novels and short stories have had a strong influence on feminist and fantastic fiction. Constantly entertaining and unpredictable The Hearing Trumpet is infused with warmth and rebellion in equal measures."

I thought about ending it...halfway through
Contains spoilers, click to show
It’s a month later, and I’m still wondering where this movie was going. Maybe I’m just not deep enough. Maybe my family was in the middle of a mental health crisis and I just couldn’t tolerate anything other than minimal plot and/or explosions. I liked the concept, but was disappointed in the end result. Summary: it was weird. By the time we got to the scene with the animated pig, I was pretty exasperated. I loved the music and the dance scene, however. So I just upgraded it from a 4 to a 6.
