Sticking It to Cancer One Book at a Time

A cozy book.

The History of Everything: A Graphic Novel by Victoria Evans

by Leave a Comment

To say that I have read several books is an understatement. Also, to say I have read several coming-of-age stories is another one. Plus, to say that those coming-of-age stories are similar to Victoria Evans’ debut graphic novel, The History of Everything: A Graphic Novel, is (yup you guessed it) an understatement. Therefore, this book is not a WOW read for me. It is a nice solid three. I could even give it a 3.5 as it was cozy and I could recommend it easily […]

Ghostly and Green

Toilet-bound Hanako-kun vol.22 by Aidalro

by Leave a Comment

Bingo 22: Green The cover is green. Thematically, there’s a potential sense of a potential new season of life (kind of a stretch but possible)., like spring means natural green coming back. Toilet-bound Hanako-kun (vol 22) is a weird little ghost story, sometimes going for spooky, sometimes going for cutesey. This volume jumps into one adventure, finishes the first segment, and cues up the next part of the arc. The time-keeper supernaturals have ‘arrested’ Yashiro whose been turned into a toddler along with Hanako, Amane […]

Alone Forever: The Singles Collection by Liz Price

by Leave a Comment

So, I have read everything (I think) Liz Price has written except for the Clarence comic (no idea who that is), Rocko’s Modern Life Volume 2 (no interest in it at all),  Science Comics: Frogs: Awesome Amphibians (but plan on it and hopefully soon as I think it is a cool subject) and  Adventure Time Compendium Vol. 1 (seriously no interest at all). Oh, also anything in Spanish like Tomboy.  Or at least I have read what I can find via my store’s search engine.  […]

PUUUUNK!

Be Your Own Backing Band by Liz Prince

by Leave a Comment

The author, Liz Prince, has become a reading staple of late. I have read most (if not all) that is  out there (minus a few things she just illustrated). But when I got Be Your Own Backing Band, I felt that Prince might have had one of her best collections yet. But then again, she could probably write a phone book and I would read it. After I finished, I said, “Keep on coming with the cool and goodness!” This is a look at how […]

We means We

While We the People Is All the People: A Picture Book by Howard W. Reeves and Duncan Tonatiuh

by Leave a Comment

While We the People Is All the People: A Picture Book talks about an important subject, I did not feel there was anything new or fresh added. Howard W. Reeves knows what they wanted to say and that comes across. They wanted to show how we are a community, that freedoms belong to all, and in a poetic fashion shows how we can accomplish this. But we have heard similar things before. However, the presentation of the illustrations by Duncan Tonatiuh was interesting and did […]

Witch Hazel by Colton Fox and Beige Blum

Witch Hazel Trouble at TCAF by Colton Fox and Beige Blum

Witch Hazel: Seasons of the Witch by Colton Fox and Beige Blum

by Leave a Comment

A few months ago, my Silver Sprocket subscription selections mostly hit the mark. One that was really good was the Witch Hazel series by Colton Fox and Beige Blum. The one I read was a stand alone, but also a continuation of three others. The first aptly named, Witch Hazel, the second Witch Hazel Trouble at TCAF (or One Shot, I’ve seen both) and the third Witch Hazel: Seasons of the Witch. (Or that is the second and TCAF is the third … I am […]
