As a lover of the Gothic subculture and a fan of Emily the Strange merchandise I thought this book would be right up my street and I was very much looking forward to reading this. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed...I became very bored of the repetition and believe the book could have been so much shorter, at least a 100 pages shorter in my opinion. I did, however, enjoy the artwork and Emily's dry, dark sense of humour was amusing in places (this is why I gave 2 stars instead of 1) but apart from that this book just wasn't for me. This was interesting. I am unsure how to rate this or actually whether I liked it, disliked it, or loved it. The story itself was unusual, the drawings were unique and gave the book a little something extra, and the story was fun but not my usual read. It was almost like a children's book that was pumped up to try to make it a young adult book but didn't quite make it there for me. If I were to judge it as a straight children's book I would say it was a fun, but weird, read.

Este libro me gusto MUCHO ! Me mantuvo muy entretenida con todo el misterio que tiene.
