Another great book by Mr Offutt! Most of the monsters I was unfamiliar with, and I read quite a bit on the subject.
I'm so disappointed in this book, and I'm not even sure if it's fair for me to be this disappointed, but here we are. I love cryptid stories and literally spent countless late nights as a kid/teen (okay, who am I kidding, I'm 26 and it still happens frequently) digging through cryptid forums and sites and blog posts, devouring any stories I could find. Even if the stories took place thousands of miles away from me, it didn't stop me from loving them (though my favorites, of course, are the ones that took place in my home state of Georgia or surrounding states).All of that said, as you can imagine, I was super excited to read this, but it wasn't what I expected at all. It's broken up by states, which was a cool formatting, but each state only has an illustration of one of its cryptids, and... honestly, I'm not convinced some of those illustrations weren't traced over old Neopets designs. Sorry.Artwork aside, instead of giving history on established cryptids that a lot of people actually believe in, most of these were nonsense (one of the Georgia cryptids' sections claims that it's a widely held belief in this particular area, and having lived very near that region as a kid and knowing a ton of people from the town? No, it's not). Half of the stories given were basically just like, "This ONE PERSON in *insert year* claimed they saw this and now everyone believes it!" and, frankly, that's not how cryptid stories work from my experience. Maybe Offutt's circles run a little differently, but ask anyone in mine, and we'll all agree that a cryptid story isn't fun until there are enough corroborating stories to make it plausible.Sigh. I didn't mean for this review to become a rant. I'm sure the author is a great person who thought they'd write something really fun and kooky, but the delivery wasn't there for me at all.
Chasing American Monster, 251 Creatures, Cryptids, and Hairy Beasts by Jason Offutt gives you a brief, fun and sometimes scary look into the stories of cryptozoology, monsters, and the folklore in the United States of America. This would be an excellent book for a coffee shop, an on-the-go read, or sitting next to the fireplace in your PJ’s.What to expect: The about the author/foreword, I enjoyed more than I probably should have (oh Gary, I have two like you at home). The introduction does a nice job explaining our fascination with monsters, the history (ex. Luigi Galvani, H. G. Wells), and why we need monsters. I’m glad to see the author mentions the Okapi, giant panda, coelacanth, megamouth shark, and more (research if you don't know why this is important).The main part of the book contains monsters from each state in alphabetical order. The author gives a brief description of each state (terrain, famous people, and events), followed by monsters (multiple per state, nice variety).The conclusion consists of the author’s personal thoughts about monsters. He leaves you with the question of whether or not monsters exist.The meh of the book (for me): Some of the descriptions are rather short, leaving you wanting more. I'd rather more detail in a couple than a bunch of small falling short, but could just be my personal taste.Whether you are a skeptic, a believer, or some where in-between, this book will appeal to your inner curiosity. Overall I would recommend and I plan to purchase this book for my nephews.Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for allowing me to read an advanced copy of the book in exchange for my honest review.
Listing the states in alphabetical order and certifying that you're terrible at remembering all of the states in that manner, Offutt has arranged a breezy read that references (notable?) legendary monsters and the like, assigning a chapter to each state. The book is quite inclusive in its variety of unnatural wonders, spanning from banshees to pig-monsters to even just bones of unique creatures, but you'll also find, as pointed out by the author, that there's a peculiar amount of consistency in some types (your Bigfoot/Bigfeet and water serpents are quite numerous). It's interesting to see what legends you're familiar with, as opposed to what Offutt's dug up.The book does have some things that got me wondering: Some entries were so bare-bones that I was curious as to why one would include them at all, presuming that Offutt had to make some editorial choices (and taking into account that creatures of folklore in the US are a-plenty); there are entries that I'd consider more of a "peculiarity" than anything, like the guy in the bunny suit terrorizing people, or the Drunk Bears---I wasn't sure why they made the list.Each chapter houses a neat drawing of a selected creature from each state. A neat improvement would be for a drawing to accompany *each* entry. You do that and then give it to a kid with a thirst for folklore? That book'll get read until it's worn out.As a TN native, I literally knew none of the entries for my state. Just wanted to put that out there.If the cover and book description appeals to you, then you're likely to be satisfied. The book truly is what it says it is; it's not exhaustively detailed, which some might balk at, but I can see younger readers latching onto it and it sparking a love for the weird things that live where we don't dare go.Many thanks to NetGalley and Llewellyn Publications for the advance read.
