I really could not get into this book. I felt like I was reading the same pages over and over again except now and then something good would happen and I would get all excited and then I would turn the page and it was the beginning again. Maybe my pages were stuck together?

It is a very poetic story, in which I like on occasion, but this just dragged. Every page was about painting and drawing and about her body and how she (Merav) was a model and why and blah and blah. I liked the "historical" parts but then it faded and we were back to art. Maybe others would like this book but as for me....not so much!

I got this book because I am a huge fan of Tim Burton's stuff. He is truly an amazing artist and a creative genius. I loved this book of short stories. I laughed throughout the whole thing and just thought it was such a fun and interesting read. He never ceases to amaze me. it took me some time to find this book and when I finally did I just had to read it straight away! I totally recommend this book to anyone with an open mind!
