Since I recently, well, finished, ehm, reading two lovely little books that have a very strong visual component, I really feel I should pay some attention to them.
For the first one, All My Friends Are Dead by Avery Monsen and Jory John, it’s easy, as a link to the book’s website should give you all the reasons why this book is totally awesome. All My Friends Are Dead.

The second, that mysterious volume that came with that oblique and indecipherable message, is a bit trickier. First and foremost, it would not be wise to tell too much about it’s horrifying content. Secondly, with the few images I can find, it’s hard to do this tome justice.
D is for Dagon, Because he’s one of the gods,
And not for the Deep Ones, Who’re just one step up from frogs.
So you’ll just have to believe me: it’s totally worth losing your mind over.
