No biggie. Each had different art and were very enjoyable to read. I am a long time fan of Edgar Allan Poe since I had to read The Raven in middle school. These graphic classics by different artists were MOST EXCELLENT!! I secretly wanted to color them with colored pencils, but there library books. I must find these for my book collection....more

My boyfriend is a truck driver so he drives Donner's Pass a lot and he has told me about it, so when I saw the made for TV mini series on the Weather Channel over Thanksgiving, I knew I would want to read more about this ordeal.

I could only imagine what I would do if I was ever given the same diagnosis Kear was given. I would run around looking at all and everything I could. Plus camp out at my local library and buy every book that even peaked my interest in a tiny bit. Losing your eye sight has got to be one of the scariest senses to lose if to lose any. This memoir was written in great detail and I believe very honest. Nice job!...more

I enjoyed my time reading these not so known little stories about places in the peach state that are just plain weird, odd and possibly delightful. I had heard of a few as I live near some, but most in this book was brand new to me. Looking forward to maybe seeing some of these in the near future. ...more
