Alola!
Inquiring minds from the Malie City library want to know…
What's your favorite book? Fiction, nonfiction, graphic novels, encyclopedias, anything's fine as long as it's a book!

Hey!! Thanks for the ask. My favorite book has to be Moby-Dick. Especially the most recent Penguin edition...
Image desc: Book cover with a red sidebar and main image of a bleeding wailord. It reads, "Moby Dick: or, the Wailord". Attributed to Herman Melville with a foreword by China Miéville, published by Penguin Classics with an Eiscue silhouette as the logo.
I got hooked on this one thanks to tumblr, you know #wailord-weekly? They were posting Ishmael's voyage across two years, but I couldn't wait to hit the ending. So... I read it all across the last semester. It's got its flaws, of course, but I really loved the journey Melville took us on. Plus, it was the first time I'd seen a Wailord portrayed as an eldritch horror!!
