Love Kills by Danilo Beyruth
What do I want to say about the graphic novel Love Kills by Danilo Beyruth? This book was majorly screwed up! I mean, I liked it, despite the ending being blunt, ending on a smack you in the face realization, then nothing afterwards, but overall everything works out well. Though, I would say things lend themselves to be more of a 3.5 and not “just” a three, as I was not a fan of the violent images in some cases, but still thought they set […]
The Magical, Wonderful Bul Bul Bird by Jonathan Kruk and Rob Bridges
When I sit to write out a draft of a review of The Magical, Wonderful Bul Bul Bird by Jonathan Kruk and illustrator Rob Bridges, I have trouble finding the right words. After mentioning that the book is a rich story, with elegant illustrations that are keeping with traditional inspiration and modern sensibilities making what the author and illustrator made an interesting experience to read. Well,that is pretty much it. One could mention that the book is longer than the usual picture book, but I […]
Destiny Ink: Sleepover Surprise (Volume 1) by Adeola Sokunbi
Destiny Ink: Sleepover Surprise (Volume 1) by Adeola Sokunbi is a fun story about worries and friendship. It has cute images accompanying the familiar and fresh take on the theme. The end. The thing is, this is a quick read for the adult reader. There is not a lot of meat to the potatoes, but those ‘taters do have some nice butter and the skin is still on. For the aged six to nine reader, it is good. It is a solid story. They might […]
Tongues, Volume 1 by Anders Nilsen
Tongues, Vol. 1 by Anders Nilsen I have NO idea what was read. The stories all bounce all over the place. The images are busy, the text mixes and gets lost in the illustrations. The images are colorless but are not black and white. The characters are unlikable, even Astrid, who might be the one that will save the world. Or destroy it. It’s still up in the air. There is nothing good and positive. Even The Prisoner has faults and he seems to […]
Hot and Badgered by Shelly Laurenston
In a Badger Way by Shelly Laurenston
Badger to the Bone by Shelly Laurenston
I picked up the first book on Saturday and was done with the third by the end of the week. Like Pringles, you can’t have just one. Hot and Badgered – 4.25 stars When a naked woman tumbles onto his hotel balcony while escaping her enemies, Berg’s happy to give her a T-shirt and a gun, but doesn’t expect to see her again. But it turns out that Charlie’s problems are manifest, and when they bring her to Manhattan, he’s happy to lend her a […]
Inheritance by Nora Roberts
The Mirror by Nora Roberts
The Seven Rings by Nora Roberts
Nora’s got a new trilogy out there, and I stumbled across the first book quite by accident right after it came out, like TWO YEARS AGO. And the first book just…ended, and it was the first time in awhile that I was mad at Nora for not having the others ready. It was a pretty big cliffhanger, even if I can’t remember all the details because it was a thousand years ago. And then she took SO LONG to get the second one out, and […]
