I present to you: my collection of the WM mass market paperback Neil Gaiman books (with the amazing covers by Robert McGinnis)
I believe I’m only missing Anansi Boys in this edition, since 4 out of 7 of these were gifts from my mother for Christmas and I really didn’t have the heart to ask her for a book with mostly naked ladies on the cover
I’ve been slowly building my collection of these specific editions, since I love Neil Gaiman’s writing but - frankly - hate the most common editions. The white minimalist covers just really aren’t my style, but I LOVE these illustrated ones.
I’m happy that my collection is almost complete now :)
Thx for tolerating me being a nerd and way too picky about my books
Horror Movie: A Novel by Paul Tremblay (whose The Cabin at the End of the World was adapted into M. Night Shyamalan's Knock at the Cabin), will be published on June 25, 2024 via William Morrow.
The 288-page novel about a cursed horror film will be available in hardcover, e-book, and audio book. The synopsis is below.
In June 1993, a group of young guerilla filmmakers spent four weeks making Horror Movie, a notorious, disturbing, art-house horror flick.
The weird part? Only three of the film’s scenes were ever released to the public, but Horror Movie has nevertheless grown a rabid fanbase. Three decades later, Hollywood is pushing for a big budget reboot.
The man who played “The Thin Kid” is the only surviving cast member. He remembers all too well the secrets buried within the original screenplay, the bizarre events of the filming, and the dangerous crossed lines on set that resulted in tragedy. As memories flood back in, the boundaries between reality and film, past and present start to blur. But he’s going to help remake the film, even if it means navigating a world of cynical producers, egomaniacal directors, and surreal fan conventions—demons of the past be damned.
But at what cost?
Horror Movie is an obsessive, psychologically chilling, and suspenseful twist on the “cursed film” that breathlessly builds to an unforgettable, mind-bending conclusion.
I have been SPEEDING through America's First Daughter by Stephanie Dray and Laura Kamoie. The #historicalfiction #novel takes us back to the days when Patsy Jefferson, daughter of Thomas Jefferson, was growing up. She saw more of the world than her children ever did, even living in #paris for several years. She lived through wars and tough times but endured through it all and showed those that may have disliked her and her father that she was not going to give up. I highly recommend this novel.

The Brothers Grimm / illustrated by Lisbeth Zwerger
William Morrow and Company 1979
Hansel and Gretel was Zwerger’s third published book. And, as befits the story, her illustrations are moody, dark, and dominated by earthy watercolor washes. Later, her color palette would lighten, including more bright colors and tighter line work. Those books will come later.
