Rain Brain posted:My favorite author as a kid was John Bellairs, who I started reading because Gorey did the covers and interior illustrations so they looked completely different from anything else on the library shelves (except, apparently, Mary, Rose, and Christmas Tree June). I loved the books in part because the magic in them was real stuff people in the actual world believed it, and because they could be legitimately scary - there was a bit in Eyes of the Killer Robot (otherwise not one of the strongest books) that had me so frightened I remember hiding it in another room and going to bed with the light on that night. gently caress yeah, loved Bellairs. I got The Trolley to Yesterday at a used bookstore when I was like 10 and immediately after finishing it I went and read as much as I could find from him. I had no idea Gorey did the covers, that's rad.
