An unsettling and creative collection of over a dozen short stories told through photos, drawing and disjointed narratives. I would describe the stories as eerie, imaginative, delightful, odd and bewitching.

Maybe it is because I'm not much of a hipster, but I did not get this book. Confusing.
apanneton's review against another edition
Un nid de fils de fer tordus, les photos granuleuses de familles qui ne sourient pas, l'impression déconcertante de se faire raconter ses propres rêves, un bout de malaise au pied du lit -- Shapton sait que les fantômes ne demandent pas toujours désespérement notre attention: ils préfèrent parfois se promener sur la pointe des pieds, dormir dans les coins de pages. Doucement inquiétant, Guestbook invite à une lecture attentive, lente, qui s'attarde aux petits caractères & aux flous dans les images. Immersif & chatoyant d'étrangeté.

blooms of clarity spread across the glass.
she is who she was becoming.
the tasks of the day felt like brushing crumbs from a countertop.
and she watched him in the grainy dark.
i was of no minds.
she wants to be in her room, before dinner; with her mother cooking downstairs.
remember what you don’t get to see.
