The Shape of Ideas: An Illustrated Exploration of Creativity by Grant Snider
5.0
This is one of the most delightful books I’ve come across. Sometimes you just read things and find yourself better for having done so. I loved the illustrations and the wonderful sense of connection that someone out there experiences the path of thinking to much very much like I do. At the same time, I marveled at some of the illustrations and how he took an ordinary thing and played with it until it felt new. Often I thought, huh I would never have thought of that or that color. Of course other comics made me laugh out loud because it’s how I think about it but you don’t say it out loud. For example, he had one on “frames of mind” that in drawn using literal frames. Which is secretly what I always think about when I say that. Lol, so entirely delightful.
