In 2002 we got the absolutely beautiful YA fantasy book Abarat, by Clive Barker. In 2004 he published what was supposed to be book 2 of 5 in the series. In 2011 we finally got book 3 of 5.

His website still says he's working on books 4 and 5 and there's synopsis and artwork, but no eta and it seems like the website hasn't been updated in ages. So I just don't think I'll ever get to experience the end of one of my all time favorite series (that I still recommend whenever applicable, the first book is just too good).

I just commented about this library kids show I did in school on a different thread, but it's relevant here too! We put on a performance of the Stinky Cheese Man for kids at the library and it was so much fun. It's such a great book, I can't wait till my son is a little older and I can read them to him.

I don't have much space currently, the majority of my book collection is in boxes in the back of a closet. Plus I almost exclusively read books on my kindle, so I use Libby constantly. I have bought 2 physical books this year, both because you don't get the full experience on an e-reader (or it's just not possible), Horrorstör and S., neither of which I've read yet.

It's literally nothing like Evelyn Hugo, it was even changed to Seven and a Half Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle in the US because of the confusion.

It's a fantastic book and I wish I could read it for the first time again. It made my head hurt, in a good way.

Needful Things, I've read that book so many times I've destroyed multiple copies.
