Ganador del premio Whiting en ficción. La novela gráfica del año en más de 100 listas de Europa y Estados Unidos «Emil Ferris es una de las artistas de novela gráfica más importante de nuestra era». Art Spiegelman Premiada con 2 Ignatz, 3 Eisner, 1 Guinigi, 1 ACBD Gran Prix, 1 Carlos Giménez, 1 Premio de los Libreros de Madrid, 1 Premio del Cómic Aragonés. Premio al mejor Cómic Internacional del Salón Internacional del Cómic de Barcelona 2019. Un cómic que ya se ha convertido en un clásico moderno. Esta es la historia de Karen Reyes, una peculiar niña de diez años que vive en la oscura Chicago de finales de los sesenta. Lleva un diario gráfico que refleja su pasión por las películas de terror de serie B y la iconografía de las revistas pulp de monstruos. Se retrata a sí misma como una niña-lobo vestida de detective y, como tal, se propone un día resolver el misterio que rodea el asesinato de su bella y enigmática vecina del piso de arriba, Anka Silverberg, una superviviente del Holocausto. Mientras Karen investiga el crimen, veremos pasar las vidas fascinantes e interconectadas de todos quienes la rodean: su hermano Deeze, cuyo alistamiento a Vietnam es inminente y a quien tortura un secreto del pasado; su madre Marvela, una mujer impredecible que ha sacado adelante a una familia parcialmente disfuncional; Sam Silverberg, el Rápido, baterista de jazz recién enviudado; el Sr. Gronan, casero del edificio y mafioso a tiempo parcial; Sylvia Gronan, esposa de este y conocedora de los secretos de la comunidad; el Sr. Chugg, un ventrílocuo de extrañas costumbres; y el extraño y conmovedor catálogo de amigos de Karen, reales e irreales a partes iguales. Cuando las pesquisas de Karen se ramifiquen hasta llegar a la Alemania nazi, va a manifestarse claramente cómo pueden converger lo personal y lo político, el pasado y el presente, y cómo incluso el bien puede albergar una porción de lo monstruoso. Lo que más me gusta son los monstruos es una explosión narrativa sin precedentes que ya ha encumbrado a su autora entre los grandes maestros contemporáneos del cómic. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Winner of the Whiting Award in Fiction. In this debut, which takes the form of a fictional graphic diary, a 10-year-old girl tries to solve a murder. Set against the tumultuous political backdrop of late '60s Chicago, My Favorite Thing Is Monsters is the fictional graphic diary of 10-year-old Karen Reyes, filled with B-movie horror and pulp monster magazines iconography. Karen Reyes tries to solve the murder of her enigmatic upstairs neighbor, Anka Silverberg, a holocaust survivor, while the interconnected stories of those around her unfold. When Karen's investigation takes us back to Anka's life in Nazi Germany, the reader discovers how the personal, the political, the past, and the present converge. Full-color illustrations throughout.Shipping Notes

This makes Scripture so easy to understand.
Format: Hardcover
If I have any complaints about this study Bible, it's that it doesn't have a large print edition. I do have The Amplified Bible (not a study edition) in large print; therefore, I have the option to read the large print and then refer to the study Bible for the explanations. This is a fantastic study Bible for beginners as well as us seasoned vets in Christianity. A clarification: The print in the study Bible isn't tiny; it's more of a 9-point, comfort font. There are footnotes at the bottom of each page; however, Scriptures are clarified right in the text, making for seamless reading with no interruptions. At the back of the Bible, there are maps in color; theological notes index by title, and the most complete Topical Index (aka concordance) I've ever seen. I have owned and still own many study Bibles; but I am most impressed with this one. If you are a KJV-only believer, I highly recommend having this one handy to help you understand the KJV and/or NKJV even better. My strict KJV-only pastor even recommends The Amplified Study Bible to new believers and to us older ones, too. Complex spiritual matters are well explained. I highly recommend this for everyone, no matter where you are in your spiritual journey!

Outstanding Study Bible with easy to read large print
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I enjoy using study Bibles and this is my first Amplified Bible, so buying the newly updated Amplified Study Bible was very appealing to me. What wasn't evident from the product page is that the Bible is in large print. While the print is not huge, it is very readable. The Bible is large at over 2,000 pages; however, it is not too heavy and bulky for my use.
I am easily able to keep notes in the room left on the margins and the paper quality is nice enough to hold up to my ink pens.
I am really enjoying the “amplified” part of this Bible. As I mentioned, this is my first experience with this translation and I wasn't sure what to expect. I find that the amplified meanings (in parentheses) adds to my understanding of the verses and to the overall meaning of what I am reading.
The study portion of the Bible with the explanations and cross-references is done extremely well. That there are full color maps at the back is another wonderful resource.
I picked up the hardback version for myself and will be picking up another one for my husband. That way we can share our Bible study time. I am also planning on giving this as a gift to family members. I plan to buy the soft faux-leather brown and the purple for birthday gifts throughout the year. While I am generally a fan of Kindle books, I find that, for me, a printed Bible is preferable.
