Buns on the run

Fluffle Bunnies V01 Buns Gone Bad by Anna Humphrey

Fluffle Bunnies V02 Big City Buns by Anna Humphrey

August 29, 2024 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Fluffle Bunnies V01 Buns Gone Bad is currently available, but I read it, and the sequel,  Fluffle Bunnies V02 Big City Buns, (due April 2025) via an online reader copy. Now, Anna Humphrey I will say you are probably a lovely person. I appreciate the hard work and time that goes into creating a book, even a quick read chapter book like this. However, I do not like your bunny siblings, Biggie, Boingy and Flop. Maybe kids will find things amusing, but I do not […]

Coffee, unicorns and music

Shy Steve by Katerina Spaeth

Giddy Up, Unicorn! by Dani Gomez

Eloísa's Musical Window by Margarita Engle

August 29, 2024 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Picture books all around me. How many can I read? Well, I try to read all of them, but of course, it’s impossible. So, I do the best I humanly can to make sure I find the right one(s) for me. Then, I narrow it down to the ones I want to review. That is not as easy as it sounds. But I was able to find a few for this review. All were read via online reader copies. We can start with Shy Steve […]

An umbrella of sadness

Under Anna's Umbrella by Amanda Driscoll

August 29, 2024 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Under Anna’s Umbrella written by Amanda Driscoll and illustrated by Luisa Uribe (and due mid/late April 2025) is actually a nice story about grief. It is set up to allow you to adapt it to your own personal needs. We see how Anna is unable to face the death of someone in her family (I am assuming a father as there isn’t one during the course of the book, but there is a photograph of a man at the end of the book) but as […]

Ironheart: the other metal superhero

Marvel-Verse: Ironheart by Eve L. Ewing and various

August 28, 2024 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Another book in the Marvel-Verse graphic novel series I found is Marvel-Verse: Ironheart by Eve L. Ewing, Brian Michael Bendis, Kevin Libranda, Luciano Vecchio, Marco Rudy, Nico Leon and a few others. I hadn’t planned on writing another Marvel review (even though I have read two of the baddies,  Marvel-Verse: Kang and Marvel-Verse: Kraven the Hunter, plus two of the Guardians of the Galaxy comics: Marvel-Verse: Rocket & Groot and Marvel-Verse: Guardians of the Galaxy. But honestly, I was not as impressed with them as I had […]

The female Web designers

Marvel-Verse: Spider-Gwen: Ghost-Spider by Jason LaTour and various

Marvel-Verse: Spider-Woman by Marv Wolfman and various

August 28, 2024 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I recently found several series of graphic novels called Marvel-Verse that covered a variety of Marvel characters. And while I found villains, they are mostly the heroes. Since they are all similar (you get a few stories for each character as the feature and they do their thing. They range from 1960s classic, 1980s and even now), I can pretty much say: “Which Marvel character do you like?” You then answer and I can say Yes or No they have it. Of course there is […]

This Sh*t Is Bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S

Final Girls by Riley Sager

August 28, 2024 by Zirza 8 Comments

A young woman stumbles out of the woods in a red dress, screaming loudly that someone is chasing her. A nearby police officer finds her and shoots the crazed killer, a psychopath who has escaped from a nearby mental hospital. Years later, Quincy is known as a ‘final girl’: the only survivor of a bloody massacre. There are other Final Girls and when one of them dies, another comes to find Quincy. Quincy, at first, is happy to have Sam with her: Sam knows what […]
