This book was such a sweet and endearing story. I enjoyed every story about Weylyn Gray. My heart felt sad for him and I’m so happy he found peace.

You MUST go into this book knowing that it is full of magic! It is a wonderful story about the people that we meet and what we leave them with.
While this book is not my usual cup of tea, I was entertained. I am very happy that I read this book and hope that you will be, too.
My thanks to netgalley and St Martin's Press for this advanced readers copy.

Under the whimsical magic this is a very heartwarming story about a man who never loses his sense of childhood wonder and all of the people his life touches along the way. Reading it felt like drinking cold lemonade on a warm summers night. I breezed through the whole novel in one day.

Beasts of Extraordinary Circumstance tells the story of Weylyn Grey's life from the perspectives of the people who knew him, loved him, and even a few who thought he was just plain weird. Although he doesn't stay in any of their lives for long, he leaves each of them with a story to tell. Stories about a boy who lives with wolves, great storms that evaporate into thin air, fireflies that make phosphorescent honey, and a house filled with spider webs and the strange man who inhabits it.
