Status Updates From The Shadow Glass

Such a adventure

This book is sooooo damn good 👍🏻 👏🏻 👌🏻

If this book doesn't become popular, I will spam every social media platform because it is THAT GOOD!

I should probably be prioritizing other things, but this sounds more fun.. Hopefully it's a fast read to help pull me out of my reading slump.

'Bringing together an artful blend of nostalgic references, emotionally-wrenching characterisation, and stunning worldbuilding, Josh Winning's "The Shadow Glass" is a delight of a debut.'
— Tori Bovalino, author of The Devil Makes Three and Not Good For Maidens

'[it's] like the old children’s movies it worships: sometimes dark, but never heartless; gritty yet soulbaring. It embraces its referents as a whole: their beauty with their ugliness, the healing power of nostalgia with its potential to poison the present..It stands proud with a VHS copy of its favorite movie held aloft, daring you to say it’s not the greatest film ever.'
— Edgar Cantero, Meddling Kids

I'm enjoying this! It's not a 5 star read and it isn't bad, but you know I can totally see this being made into a film... though it's lovingly ripped off of Dark Crystal / Henson.
