I feel like I have waited forever for this book. And I still have to wait until AUGUST! AGH. But it will be worth it. Because I adore these Gustav Gloom books. And look at that gorgeous cover. Swoon. I love the illustrations in these books so much. Sigh. I cannot wait to read more of Gustav and Fernie. <3
What are you waiting for?

  1. It's super exciting for you that a new book in a series you love (and what looks like an absolutely wonderful, quirky series at that) is coming out soon- your love for this series reminds me of how I feel about the All the Wrong Questions series by Lemony Snicket. I'll be sure to find out more about the Gustav Gloom books, now I know about them!
