I Know What I Saw: Modern-Day Encounters with Monsters of New Urban Legend and Ancient Lore by Linda S. Godfrey

informative mysterious medium-paced

2.5

this is a book i expected to enjoy a lot more than i did, since i'm very interested in cryptids and urban legends. this was what i expected to some degree, it's a collection of people's encounters with strange, paranormal creatures. i did, however, expect more from the author. i thought she would follow up on the stories in some way, maybe dive deeper into the creatures featured in them. because she didn't, the structure of the book was a bit choppy. i enjoyed a lot of the stories and thought they were intriguing, but sometimes it got somewhat repetitive. it was still decently interesting and i liked the concept.
