Who Wears the Black Hat could be a Good Mystery to Solve

Jack Flash and the Faerie Case Files, volume 3 by Yu Godai, Mako Oikawa, Kore Yamazaki

by Leave a Comment

Now that we’re firmly in original story territory, Jack Flash and the Faerie Case Files volume 3 spends a lot of time setting up what could be a really interesting suspenseful adventure. There is a mysterious man in a black hat who seems to be involved in pushing a drug allowing humans to temporarily see magic and its users might be trying to herd or lure Jack and Larry into tracking him through a series of crimes connected by this drug. While the man himself […]

Really Hoping The Food is as Good as it Looks

The Korean Vegan Cookbook by Joanne Lee Molinaro

by 1 Comment

This might be the first cookbook I’ve preordered; I’m pretty sure that I actually ordered it months ago, and forgot when it was supposed to come out. Then came the shipping notice, and then The Korean Vegan Cookbook. This is actually almost a coffee table book give that it’s a glossy hard cover with lots of pretty pictures. That said, it also looks like it will be a lot of interesting fun to work through. Not only are the recipes pretty doable in terms of […]

When Marvel Gets a Little Real

Ms. Marvel, vols.1-7 by G. Willow Wilson, Mirka Andolfo, Takeshi Miyazawa, Ian Herring

by Leave a Comment

To be totally honest, Marvel and DC aren’t a major geekdom of mine. But upon recommendations, first by friends IRL and again here at CannonballReads, I started the Ms. Marvel series by G. Willow Wilson et al. The library had the first 8 volumes, then a skip then a volume then skip one or two, so for now until I can get some blanks filled in I’m limited to volumes 1-7; I haven’t finished 8 yet. I’ll get that one in the next batch. I […]

When Fan-Fic Sticks the Ending Better then the Original

Any Way the Wind Blows by Rainbow Rowell

by Leave a Comment

Bingo Just Because: Reader’s Choice Even though I’ve already posted the review to fill in my bingo card, I still wanted to do this out of stubbornness, and because I have another book finished that would have probably ended up in this square anyways. So, Any Way the Wind Blows is the finale of the Simon Snow trilogy, the Harry Potter fan-fic originally created for the stand-alone novel Fangirl, which was actually my introduction to the author Rainbow Rowell. I have to admit, in spite […]

Bingo Blackout with Chrysanthemums!

Chrysanthemums by Twigs Way

by 1 Comment

Bingo 25: Flora I have to admit I was starting to despair about having to use a gardening book from the library which didn’t interest me for the Flora square, but then I found this: In case you can’t see under the library sticker, the title is Chrysanthemums. Also, am I the only one wondering if that’s a pen name or just really fortuitous coincidence for the author? This is supposed to be a cultural and horticultural history, which is super interesting since I know […]
