K Pop meets Honey Bees

Three Bee Honey Volume 1 by Desi St. Amant and Jon St. Amant

September 29, 2026 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Three Bee Honey Volume 1 by Desi St. Amant and Jon St. Amant (illustrator) is a cute story with a little edge.The edge is that there is a bit of depict happening within the bee hive, and the queen is unaware. So far, the worst things that have happened is that the girls have gotten caught in a spiderweb, almost got eaten and of course, escaped; our main character has been well… something happens to her but I don’t want to give spoilers, and there […]

Not to say you won’t find a meaning, but also not saying you will

Drome by Jesse Lonergan

September 29, 2026 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Drome by Jesse Lonergan is one of those reads where you have to read it to understand this book. And if you do read it, can you tell me what the heck (only I didn’t say heck) did I read? Okay, I get that things have something to do about the Gods and Humans and their struggle with each other. Control and strength are main factors. And Man-Woman relationships play a large role in things. There is also the literal Light and Dark (I am […]

They came from outer space

Comet Club by Yi Yang and Jamie Richards

September 28, 2026 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

The graphic novel, Comet Club by Yi Yang and Jamie Richards (translator) is a mature, slightly off beat, interesting story. I sit here, typing up a draft for my review and think, “What can I say?” Sure, I can tell you that a handful of misfit kids find each other through their belief in UFOs. They even have a school club that lets them partake in their interest. It stems from the more popular boy (who is still off beat and not the most liked […]

Down a Dark Hall by Lois Duncan

Down a Dark Hall by Lois Duncan

September 26, 2026 by Classic Leave a Comment

The version of this book has been updated from the 1970’s version. Duncan includes things such as laptops, cell phones, and she talks about texting. I honestly don’t recall reading this one as a kid and was pleasantly surprised to see a Lois Duncan I had not read. I really did enjoy Down a Dark Hall, and thought all of the characters were written well, but there were still some parts of the book that read as off to me and I realized that was […]

Her First Mistake by Kendra Elliot

Her First Mistake by Kendra Elliot

September 26, 2026 by Classic Leave a Comment

Her First Mistake hits the broad strokes of a romantic suspense novel, but it’s just honestly a 3 star read. I just found myself getting confused through so many timelines and then changing perspectives. I am curious enough to read the second book in this series, because I wonder if Elliot is able to course correct on this one. There was just so much information spewed our way and I do wonder how she’s going to marry up Noelle finding out the truth about a […]

He’s whispering at your door… DO NOT LET HIM IN

The Whisper Man by Alex North

September 25, 2026 by kfishgirl 3 Comments

My friend at work recommended this book to me. Once I finished it I reached out to her to tell her how much I liked it. She was like “Oh, I didn’t read it, but there’s a movie of it on Netflix and it looked good”. I was like “oh haha, well I read the book on your recommendation and loved it”. I mean I loved it as much as you can love a book about kids getting kidnapped and murdered, alcoholism, parent death… We’re […]

    And throwing in Grandma Mazur from the Stephanie Plum novels too? That's really tempting...
