The Wraith: Welcome to Christmasland | 
My December #WrapUp
It was fun...
I just read whatever my mood was like, after finishing The Witching Hour
My favourite was definitely Wraith, makes me want to re-read NOS4R2

pickAn awesome standalone graphic novel of Welcome To Christmasland series! It tells the origins of Charles Manx III and his inscape, Christmasland. Story is intriguing & illustrations are terrifyingly amazing!!!
Rating: 5⭐

pickWhile I did not enjoy this as much as Nos4a2 I did really enjoy learning more about Manx. It was interesting to see his back story and how Christmasland came to be. Now, while this does give us Manx's past and the beginnings of Christmasland I do recommend reading Nos4a2 first otherwise some of the story will be ruined for you.
pickI‘ve had this graphic novel sitting on my shelf for a few years now, finally got around to reading it. I loved this prequel to Joe Hill‘s NOS4A2. It delves into the history of Charlie Manx and Christmasland, how they each came to be.Highly recommend to fans of NOS4A2 and and want more of this amazing world. #TeamStoker #scarathlon #ScaryScavengerHunt prompt that scares you, the Christmasland kids are scary as heck! +11 pts
“If you can dream a thing, then it has a kind of reality in your thoughts. And if you dream hard enough, and have the right vehicle - a vehicle that you really love, a part of yourself - you can slip right out of reality and into that other, better, imaginary world, where the only reality is the one you allow.”

pickWraith is a dark and brutal look into the life of Charlie Manx, what he went through, and how Christmasland was made.
It was bloody. It was creepy. It was action packed. This #graphicnovel was everything that I was hoping it would be!
If you read and enjoyed Joe Hill‘s NOS4A2, then you need to pick this one up!

pickIf you like books that have gore, supernatural elements, and are creepy you need to read NOS4A2 and then read this graphic novel! I think reading the graphic novel first would be a spoiler for the book, so read the book first. The graphic novel is the backstory for Charlie Manx and his Wraith. You need to read both! Trust me, you won‘t regret it...you also won‘t think of Christmas the same afterwards. #24b4monday #readathon
My hubby is just the best! A package came in the mail yesterday and he handed it to me and told me it was a Halloween gift for me. I opened it and this was in it, I‘ve been wanting this graphic novel for so long! #bookmail
Since we were already at the library I returned to 2 books and picked up my holds...even though I still had 10 library books at home. So I went from having 12 books checked out to 10 and then 14, in the same day. I have a problem you guys... 😅 💕📚💕🤓 #LitsyLovesLibraries #Bookaddiction #BookAddictProblems #LibraryBookHaul #bookHaul #TwinkyToles #mybrat #gingerbrat #Littenkitten #Tolesbrats #CatsofLitsy
pickI love twitter because you can reach out to writers (and illustrators!!) and they respond!
C.P Wilson was the illustrator for Wraith, and a damn fine one -6 that! It‘s so cool to be able to interact with people whose art you‘ve enjoyed.
Wraith is also incredible and recommend the creepy read to everyone who enjoys horror.

pick@KCorter thank you SO much! That was amazing! Read it in one sitting. I‘m speechless. This graphic novel was perfect.

Productive Sunday: I finished And Then There Were None- an AMAZING read that I recommend to anyone who wants a fun book. I also convinced my husband to read The Stand finally!!!! One of my favs. My heart exploded today when I realized he bought it. Decided to read my Christmas gift from @KCorter at the end of this bookish January. Book 6, I feel so accomplished!
Ps- yes that is a sloth.

pickWOW WOW WOW!! As the prequel to his novel NOS4R2, I kinda knew what to expect but this graphic novel took things to another level. The illustrations are phenomenal - creepy, scary, just the right amount of gore - and the storyline was most satisfying, depicting the beginning of Christmasland and the development of Charlie Manx as one of the most scary ass horror characters ever. There simply aren't enough superlatives to describe this book.
3 books for this week's Around the Year in 52 read-a-thon. #graphicnovel #christmasland #memoir #penguin #mystery #poirot #ceciltheduck
#FavManga: Full disclosure- I actually haven‘t read any Manga. It‘s not something I‘ve really dove into... but my amazing Litsy secret Santa @KCorter sent me Wraith for Christmas this year! This is as close to Manga as I can get

#takeadrive #scenesfromabook well, just open a page in this book and you‘re taking a drive plus homemade chili and grilled cheese
I‘m doubling up this round. #rhythminside #decdays I chose this one because Manx‘s plays Christmas music 🎶🎼🎄 through the whole book . #booksandbells #decktheshelves
Who would win the battle between these two child creepers? Stephen Kings Pennywise or Joe Hills Charles Manx ?
I‘m still shaking! Holy shit! Joe Hill is adorable and so awesome! Such a great guy!
pickI liked what this added to the novel - the background on Charlie Manx and new adventure to Christmasland. The only thing - I feel like when I was reading the novel, the kids were much scarier in my head, maybe because of the whole ornament-hook-as-teeth thing that was not present here. Overall, though, I enjoyed this a lot.
One more book to read from my latest library haul. If I finish this, I may explode from the excitement of having read all of the books I picked out for myself without having to renew. Time to give this one another shot!
Inappropriate for public reading material while waiting to be seated for Valentine's Day dinner. 😂❤️❤️❤️
pickGreat Graphic Novel. It is great tie-in to NOS4A2. The drawings were quite good and just enough scary.
I absolutely adored NOS4A2, so giving this prequel Graphic Novel a try. I adore Joe Hill so this should be good.
Let me tell y'all about my friend Josie. I met her in Litsy last year right after I came here. It wasn't long before I realized that even though I was old enough to be her mother we were Bookish Soulmates. We talk every day and decided to send each other Birthday boxes. Soon we d coded that w couldn't wait until our Birthdays. Just another way we are alike. My box came today and it was literally full of things that I am in love with. Thanks Josie❤
My #recommendsday picks are a few horror comics and manga for some creepy October reading. I loved Gyo; Junji Ito is a horror manga master so anything by him will be great! For fans of Joe Hill's NOS4A2, he worked with Gabriel Rodriguez (Locke and Key) to create Wraith, a standalone story about the origin of Charlie Manx.
Other chilling options are Wytches, Severed, Through the Woods (comics) and Drifting Classroom, Ajin, Devil's Line (manga). 👻
