The dating forest can seem at times a magical place filled with happiness and love, and at other times a place to be feared, where hearts are stolen or left broken. It is not always easy to find your way, especially when the scenery keeps changing. Just who are all these creatures roaming the forests of love and heartbreak? For that matter, what type of creature am I that I dare to enter such a perilous yet hopeful place? In this forest the first thing you must do is not to discover what creatures are about you, but what creature are you. If you can first see who you are, then you can see who you want, and who you want to avoid. There are many dangers; some more easily avoided then others as attraction can easily lead you down a stray path. But if the right path can be found, one that leads to your own handsome prince, or beautiful princess, then there is no reason why one cannot live happily ever after. Wood Nymph Seeks Centaur is an eerily accurate, at least in my case, guide to love, life and friendships. This is no ordinary story but a cautionary guide filled with all the wisdom and enchantment that comes with blending myths, fairy tales and astrology. If you ever find yourself lost in these woods, and you will if you haven't already, then this invaluable book will be able to assist you, if not entertain you, as you make your way blindly through this world. A dating guide which is fresh. I'm tired of the cliche astrology match making. This is not as limiting because we are allowed to decide for ourselves which mythological creature we are most like (unlike star signs where we are bound by the month we were born in). It's fun and unique. Love the illustrations too. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Navigating the world of dating can be like wandering an enchanted forest, full of creatures, with peculiar habits and baffling behaviour. In Wood Nymph Seeks Centaur, Francesca Lia Block provides a guide to this often treacherous terrain, classifying all those mystifying men and women into various types of mythical forest fauna-fauns and Werewolves, Mermaids and Banshees. After answering questions to determine your own type, you can learn to identify others with the help of illustrations from artist Fumi Nakamura. By reading up on the various types' favourite activities, professions, sexual preferences, and parenting styles, you'll gain insight into compatible creatures. If you're a Wood Nymph, you could get your heart broken by a fickle Satyr, but if you can track down the strong, soulful Centaurs of the forest, you just might be on the path to true love. Clever and insightful, Wood Nymph Seeks Centaur is an invaluable guide for any dating creature. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

While there aren't any profound or earth-shattering insights in this book, it might make you notice a few traits in your friends, partner, or even yourself that you had previously overlooked. There are quite a few anecdotes from Francesca Lia Block's personal life, which her fans will find interesting, but sadly it does seem as if Block (the sensitive Wood Nymph) has had some less than stellar experiences with a few of the other 'creatures' and this makes her a far from impartial judge - Satyrs and Weregirls in particular come off rather badly!
I'm not generally a fan of 'what's your type?' books, but for fantasy or fairytale fans who like a generous sprinkling of pink sugar stars from time to time, this will be a delight. See if you can get at least one friend to read it with you as it will generate a lot of hilarious conversation. ( )
