Strange the Dreamer

Dates read: 07/22/24 - 08/08/24

“He wasn’t an alchemist, or a hero. He was a librarian, and a dreamer. He was a reader, and the unsung expert on a long-lost city no one cared a thing about.” • It’s a rare treat to read a book that is unlike anything I’ve ever encountered before. I could go on and on about the impacts this story had on my fundamental understanding of craft. How the lyrical prose and intricate world building were but a few things that cemented this as a perfect five star read. But if I did then this post would be entirely too long.

Instead, when you go to pick this one up, I recommend knowing as little as possible and enjoying the dream. • E’s rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

So I noticed today that I posted this photo one year ago. I told myself I was going to read these 3 books in 2019. 👀 I just finished The Bone Season last week…still haven’t read the other two. 🙊 . Tell me a book you meant to read last year, then didn’t. . Happy Friday Friends! Here’s to sticking to my goals better this year. 🥂 . . . #shelfie #theboneseason #samanthashannon #theravenking #maggiestiefvater #strangethedreamer #lainitaylor #bookshelf #readinggoals #calm_collected #slowlivingforlife #ofquietmoments #slowandsimpledays #thedarlingmovement #seekthesimplicity #wondermore #idratherbereading #cozyvibes #bibliophile #bookaesthetic #makemoments #dowhatmakesyouhappy #prettythings #livethelittlethings (at Memphis, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7tGPz-HM1O/?igshid=1embcaf8w9pnn

» a book you didn’t expect to like but did? hello friends, I didn’t think I would like Strange the Dreamer very much. I found the start of it to be slow, but I ended up loving it. ♡ I really regret not getting the UK edition of Muse of Nightmares. The shiny US editions are so hard to photograph. » hashtags:. #bookcollector #strangethedreamer #BookCollection #Bookstagram #LainiTaylor #museofnightmares Bookstagrammer #igreads #YAbooks #readersofinstagram #yabookshelf #yabookstagram #BookSpines #bookphotography #booklover #readersofig #bookcommunity #stencilededges (at Boise, Idaho) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkRK2HUv_Ij/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A pair of illustrations done a little while ago for the Lumen Éditions release of Strange the Dreamer. Written by New York Times bestselling author Laini Taylor, Strange the Dreamer is an epic fantasy about a young librarian, a mythic lost city, and the half-human children of murdered gods. While ultimately the illustrations were used for promotional material rather than the cover artwork, it was still a joy to be a part of the French edition release. The audiobook was my soundtrack while painting Lazlo and Sarai, and I was mesmerised by the dark beauty of their world!

The dream chooses the dreamer, not the other way around. Since he was a boy, Lazlo Strange has dreamed of the mythical city of Weep. A fortuitous opportunity allows Lazlo to join the hero Godslayer and a band of legendary warriors on their journey to search for the lost city. The answers Lazlo seeks await in Weep, but so do many more mysteries - including an unexpected bond with the blue-skinned goddess who visits Lazlo's dreams.

It was soo soothing working on this painting 😌 Sarai is one of my all time favourite characters and I loove painting blue skin for some reason 😄 This scene is not 100% faithful to the books as she didn't actually sleep on the balcony but you know, I was just envisioning her in that beautiful light.
