Mar 9, 2018

This book takes the characters to New York City where they find fairy tale characters living in hiding. While they try to heal a friend, they get involved in a murder. This series may be for kids, but I just love the creativity each book shows.

Pan's Labyrinth is a creepy-dark fairy tale from GDT. I absolutely love the aesthetic of this film. The story completely ripped my heart out, but it was so good.
Seriously, the Pale Man freaks me out, and I may or may not have nightmares about that creepy thing. The scene with the Pale Man is pitch perfect, and you can feel the tension and fear.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you were transported to not only another world, but another body? Thats what happened to John. Now not only does he have to deal with an odd and disgusting body, but a malcontent book fairy, a crazed warlock friend and sexy creations. He must also find out what the god shard inside him is directing him toward.

This was a really cute novel. I really enjoyed reading it. It was predictable but that is to be expected when a novel is based off of a fairy tale. I found myself engrossed in this novel. It was a nice escape from reality. I will definitely look into reading more novels by this author. The writing was spectacular, and it was very imaginative.

I really enjoyed this book. As a lover of fairy tales and mythology, it was the premise of the main character being a half Native American coyote shifter that interested me the most. Mercy being an out of the ordinary heroine having a background in history and being mechanic was something of plus. This little coyote has what it takes to run with the big bad wolves.

"I cannot stop watching this film. I’ve tried. Yet Wes Anderson has created a fairy-tale world that is so timeless and awkwardly comfortable. Bill Murray and Jason Schwartzman portray one of the most endearing duos in years, with an ensemble of memorable characters surrounding them. Full of hilarious dialogue, a pristine song score, and Anderson’s imaginative eye—this will restore anyone’s faith in American independent filmmaking."
