Griffin: It's good to get in touch with you at last. Could I have one of your fish postcards? I think you were right -- the wine glass has more impact than the cup. --Sabine

But Griffin had never met a woman named Sabine. How did she know him? How did she know his artwork? Who is she? Thus begins the strange and intriguing correspondence of Griffin and Sabine. And since each letter must be pulled from its own envelope, the reader has the delightful, forbidden sensation of reading someone else's mail. Griffin & Sabine is like no other illustrated novel: appealing to the poet and artist in everyone and sure to inspire a renaissance in the fine art of letter-writing, it tells an extraordinary story in an extraordinary way.

Almost 20 years ago, one of my ECD Instructors shared many of her favourite books with us. Griffen & Sabine was one of them. When I saw this book in a used bookstore before Christmas, I just had to have it as my Christmas book. Can you believe that I was so excited to open my present, I ripped the dust jacket.
I enjoyed reading this book again, and I could hear Nadine's voice again as she read it to us.

Thankyou! Thankyou! What a cool book. And what a cool bookmark. I am thrilled to have one of your masterpieces. You certainly know how to make this girl smile, my friend. Best Wishes and Happy Reading!

Oh my gosh! I thought I had made a journal entry for this book a long time ago. I read it twice because I liked it so much. Now, it is time to send this cool book on to another special BCer. I hope book_drunkard enjoys it as much as I did. Thanks again herchelle!

I am sending this book off to book_drunkard as part of a trade. Happy Travels!

Received today.
Thank you for thinking of me.

I had to sit right down and read this because of the unique format of the book.
Loved that and the artwork but ... how could it end like that? Noooooo!!!

Oh, wait ... this is book 1 of 7 ... off to find the others.
Yes!!!!!!!!

Sending off on a journey in "The Otherworldly" bookbox.

Selected from the Round IV Otherworldly Bookbox.

This seems like a fun read! I think my local BC group would enjoy it too!

A fun and imaginative book! I loved taking out the letters from their envelopes! The pictures were interesting and it was nice that they were part of the story. If the next book in the series comes my way, I'd gladly read it. But I think I won't actively pursue looking for them. I thought it was fun the way the book ended. It could be, at least in my eyes, as a stand-alone novel. Prolonging it out to 6 or 7 more books... meh.

To be released at the June 2018 BCinDC meetup.
