Thank you so much to NetGalley, the publisher, and author Aaron Mahnke for early access to this book in exchange for an honest review.

As a long time listener of Aaron's other podcast, Lore , I was IMMENSELY excited and delighted to have a chance to read this book. No one tells a story quite like Aaron Mahnke; he weaves a tapestry with research, with, and humanity. Each story feels like a campfire tale, except these are real!! Weird history comes to life on the page, just waiting for you to uncover the strange but true stories of the past.

I am so happy to say that Aaron's iconic style of storytelling translates just fine to paper, and Cabinet of Curiosities would be a wonderful gift for history buffs and lovers of oddities.
