### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Impressive art work
*by S***1 on 19 September 2021*

A fictional graphic diary employing the iconography of B-movie horror imagery and pulp monster magazines. Dark, sometimes tragic, and incredibly compelling. The art is really everything. I can't wait to get my hands on the second book (Publication date 22 Sep 2022).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like a fusion of David Lynch, a pre-teen diary and a horror flick. Utterly mesmerising.
*by P***E on 30 June 2017*

Imagine (if you can) someone taking David Lynch's "Blue Velvet", and gene-splicing it with the classic movie monsters of Universal Studios, the seedy underbelly of Chicago, and a pre-teen's gorgeous biro-pen-rendered journal. That's about the best summary I can come up with for "My Favourite Thing is Monsters" by Emil Ferris. Emil has constructed a story world like no other, written from the perspective of 10-year-old Karen Reyes, who is thrown into a deviously twisted mystery involving the murder of her upstairs neighbour. Karen's investigation leads her to the taped journals of Anka (her beautiful neighbour) and her harrowing past. This is one hugely thick and immensely satisfying book to get wrapped up in. Laid out against the backdrop of a foolscap-lined spiral bound journal, Emil's artwork will grab you by the throat and shake you. Exquisite ballpen drawings intermixed with garishly coloured (but again gorgeous) pulp horror comic book covers and scratchier pen drawings, if nothing else it's a visual feast (and I've become completely obsessed with drawing and mimicking this style myself in my own art). Beyond that though it's a gripping read as the story darts between Karen's observations of her dying mother, her louche brother and of course deeper digs into Anka's life. It took a bit of getting hold of this in the UK but you can find copies (I highly recommend Speedy Kitty as a reseller if you want a copy pronto in great condition btw). It's probably one of the best graphic novels I've ever read (and I've read a lot), and I'm overjoyed to hear a sequel is on the way. You need this in your life, simple as.
