It's that time of the year again when Ripley's publishes a new book for the year. I always look forward to it because it has been a childhood staple of mine. When you're into the weird oddities of life there's nothing better than flipping through every single page of these books.
Ripley's is also celebrating it's 100th year out there so they have a newly published magazine which is fantastic. You can look through and see all the memorable curiosities they have talked about in past publications.
Obviously, I can't tell you every single thing that's in the book or else I would be giving away the content but I can give you a little sneak peak.
So we have a lovely spread of incredible pumpkin carvings ( People are now even carving melons and gourds) . I thought this would be nice to feature since Halloween is right around the corner. That Joker carving from Batman is probably my favorite one but the details that went into the White Walker from Game of Thrones is unbelievable.

Next you can take a look at White Wild. They have a whole section dedicated to animals. Here you can see a bunch of rare albino animals found in the wild. I think the Albino Humpback whale is so interesting. This big guy was spotted out in Queensland , Australia.

I thought the Quaint Qur'an was neat! It's super tiny and must have taken so much patience to make. The owner is located all the way in Indonesia. He also printed it in Gold Ink.
The next page shows Tea in Bloom. I actually have had experience with this because I know how popular clear glass teapots are now due to this. It's so lovely getting to see the flowers bloom in the hot water. I'm not crazy about the tastes I have tried out but I'm sure you can see for yourself. True tea lovers will enjoy this.
The Dachshund Museum is located in Passau, Germany. If you're a fan of this breed of dog then you should definitely go take a visit abroad. There are tons of cool Dachshund related things for you to feast your sights on.
I love Cosplay so I had to show the feature on Watery Cosplay. It shows and talks about photographers who capture amazing shots underwater. The Harley Quinn is adorable!! The female version of Thor looks gorgeous. Hmm , I wasn't impressed with the Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus shot from the Sailor Moon Series. What do you think?
So giving you that little sneak peak I hope I have piqued your interest to check out both the new book and magazine. It's good for people of all ages to enjoy. Make sure to check out your local book store to find it. I'm pretty sure Barnes and Noble will have it. It will be available for purchase August 27, 2019.
