The Scholastic Book Club Meets Grady Hendrix (Full disclosure: I received a free e-ARC for review through NetGalley.) My Little Occult Book Club is an absolute, 110%, must-read for the following demos: 1. Children of the '80s. 2. Book nerds. 3. The SPN fandom. 4. All of the above. Graphic artist Steven Rhodes gives the 1980s Scholastic Book Club flyers the Grady Hendrix treatment, to pretty awesome effect. Here you'll find advertisements for would-be books such as B.M. Hex Gang by Diane Rott, My First Zombie Apocalypse (Abbie Toir), and Alien Abduction Club; connect-the-dots games where the dots = demons; adverts for spirit specs and alien-attracting helmets (for the anti-tinfoil hat crowd); and unholy word search games. There's even a mock order form at the front of the book! That sound? The squealing of my inner middle-schooler. http://www.easyvegan.info/img/my-little-occult-book-club-01.jpg Most of the artwork consists of book covers, which seems like it would get repetitious - if not for Rhodes's talent, style, and wicked sense of humor. According to his bio, Rhodes's designs grace t-shirts in Spencer's and Hot Topic, so that should give you an idea of his overall aesthetic. I would not object to receiving unisex tees and/or mid-sized posters sporting any of these gems. http://www.easyvegan.info/img/my-little-occult-book-club-02.jpg http://www.easyvegan.info/img/my-little-occult-book-club-03.jpg http://www.easyvegan.info/img/my-little-occult-book-club-04.jpg http://www.easyvegan.info/img/my-little-occult-book-club-05.jpg http://www.easyvegan.info/img/my-little-occult-book-club-06.jpg I have a soft spot for the sell your soul one, since my youngest brother sold his to a second-grade classmate for a mere fifty cents. Needless to say, we still tease him about it a decade and a half later. http://www.easyvegan.info/2020/08/25/my-little-occult-book-club-by-steven-rhodes... aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Need an informative early reader on the subject of necromancy? How about a colourfully-illustrated guide to summoning demons? Whether you are a budding exorcist, or seeking reliable instruction for your first human sacrifice, My Little Occult Book Club is the go-to book for you! For anyone who loves their childhood nostalgia taken with a dark twist, My Little Occult Book Club is a laugh-out-loud collection of artist Steven Rhodes' most popular parody book covers. Framed and written in a playful tone that emulates vintage subscription book catalogs (such as Scholastic book fair or Book-of-the-Month), this book features faux titles such as Necromancy for Beginners, Sell Your Soul! (Economics for Children), Let's Call the Exorcist, and Let's Summon Demons, all illustrated in the style of retro '70s and '80s children's books. With short book descriptions every few pages, funny puzzles and activities, fake mail order offers for free gifts ('Cursed Videocassette!'), and even a free, fold-out poster included in the book, My Little Occult Book Club is the perfect gift for little devils of all ages.

The illustrations are wonderful and the horror/occult theme is entertaining throughout never passing into grotesqueness. ( )
