A sweet little graphic novel about the author's hearing loss at an early age.
Quite cute artwork.

Meant for a YA audience.
Had liked her other book, drama better than this one.
Good art, average story.

Again a YA graphic novel, but a better one at that. Some strong female characters and a good plot line.
Would recommend.

Great artwork with an okayish story.
Good for YA.

Pleasantly surprised at how dark the book was, considering its young audience.
Gorgeous Art and a good story.
Understand why its in the recommended graphic novels reading.

Not even going to rate the book.
Was a collection of absolute nonsense. I get why people my have been drawn to the book because of its at times humorous, ridiculous ideas. But it was absolutely terrible, listening to the author ramble on about unimportant stuff and rushing past the important ones, aka mental health.

The “funny” in the tittle is literally one loud exhale through the nose during the entire read.
Steer clear of this one.

Graphic novels with short stories cut off at the right (or wrong?) moment.

“From the depths of the mirror, a corpse gazed back at me. The look in his eyes, as they stared into mine, has never left me.”

Rating this book out of 5 stars is just wrong.
Elie Wiesel narrates his father and his experiences at Auschwitz with gruesome detail, full of anguish.
Somehow, I keep coming back to Holocaust survivor stories. They give me the strength to power through my own difficulties and make my problems seem insignificant.
Maybe that is a little selfish on my part.
But it always leads me to appreciate the little things in life more than before.

The book reminded me of another good book on the Holocaust : Man's search for meaning.
A must read for every human.

Wasn't aware that King wrote short stories!
Why shouldn't he? He has had immense success with novels.
Narrating 4 new stories, King doesn't shy away from adding creepy situations and creatures.
The audiobook version is narrated by three brilliant narrators as with their previously narrated books that I listened to. My favorite story was Mr. Harrigan's phone.
I think its safe to say that I dug myself a deep hole with King's work this year, starting with the outsider. But its time to give other authors a chance now.

Out of all the short stories I've read over the years, only one comes to mind that I won't ever stop vehemently recommending, Jeffry Archer.

This book is so good good good.
Am so happy happy happy I listened to it :p
Five stars not enough. Me need more stars.

Finally coming out of reviewing books slump.

Without spoiling anything, the story is about a mission to save planet earth from an imminent threat. But it teaches about a lot more than surviving in harsh environments or situations. Its about friendship, kindness and basic human decency.

If you do decide to read this book, I'd urge you to listen to the audio book instead. Its brilliantly performed and immerses you in the story from the get go.

Did not expect the book to be this emotional. It made me cry!
The last two chapters are so well written, I've been listening to them on repeat for a while :)

Cannot wait for this to be turned into a movie.
I just wish I could listen to this book for the first time again.

Was on my TBR since a year! (If I remember it correctly)
Is totally worth the wait. The author as a mortician, answers questions asked by little kids about death. Except for a few questions, they could have been asked by an adult too, out of genuine curiosity.
Pleasantly surprised at how funny the book was!

Another cliff hanger. Will have to start reading the next book soon.
Master at his craft as always.

Considerably smaller than his other works.
Did not have the quintessential “King horror” components, but an engaging story nonetheless.
If you're a King fan, you can let this one slide.

A fitting sequel to the shining.
Creepy at times and has a nail biting ending.
King at his best.

Another one of the Warwick series knocked off my TBR. Fast paced, with twists at the right places. Classic Archer.
Won't be too surprised if I immediately start reading the next Warwick novel in line.

Was on my TBR for a bit. Loved hearing stories about her and Tina Fey.
Otherwise, quite an average listen.

Just a quick read. A good mix of famous people with disabilities.

Will Paton hits a home run with this one.
Loved listening to yet another King novel narrated beautifully.
Did feel like the story dragged on for a bit there. But the loose ends were tied at the end.
Recommend to any horror or King fans.

Thoroughly enjoyed the story and P.Craig's fitting artwork. A great Halloween Read.

Although the book is meant for teens, I did have a good time reading and was on the edge of my seat till the end.

A little boring at times, but picks up in the second half.
Pretty art, story was dull at times.

I am in awe of artists who can convey so much while writing so little!
Hands down the cutest book I have ever read.
HANDS DOWN.

Finally got a chance to read this beauty.
With no words to guide the story, the artist has a nice way to catch the viewer's attention.
Telling a story just through images is a task which Shaun Tan executes beautifully.
As many, I am sure, must have said before me - I now understand why this book is vehemently recommended.
A must read for those looking to start reading graphic novels.
PS. So lucky to be in a place with a library that has such gorgeous books. So so grateful.

Cute little book depicting Death's journey to self discovery.
Funny and witty at times.

Just wanted to read something by Nathan W. Pyle. Love his work on Instagram!
