Grace Under Fire by Julie Garwood

March 22, 2023 by MegsDarcy 1 Comment

Oh nostalgia, you fickle fickle tricky beast. I read Julie Garwood because my mom read Julie Garwood. When I was a pre-teen and desperately needed something new to read that wasn’t a kids book nor school book I found on one of my mom’s numerous book cases called Saving Grace. It was about an abused woman who has to escape to the highlands of Scotland and marry a stranger to be safe and survive. It was a historical romance and what I liked most was […]

The Demon Inside Me by Chace Verity

March 22, 2023 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

I adore Chace Verity’s queer demon romances. Their human characters are working class and their sensibilities are solidly anti-bootstraps. Colby works at a low end big box store where, as he says, dreams go to die. Colby makes enough to pay rent and occasionally have a night out with the guys he has been friends with since junior high. He’s in the group chat, but their lives have diverged from his – they make more money and have office jobs that get more respect. Colby […]

Read comics or go to hell (um…I might have done both?)

Good Boy V01: Good Boy Magazine #1 by Michael Sweater and Benji Nate

March 22, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

CBR15Passport Own This is the first Benji Nate book they had a part in that I did not enjoy. The concept of Good Boy V01: Good Boy Magazine #1 a Zine format. There are different styles and types of work (done by different authors and/or illustrators) that are included. There is everything from the woman who was once a “Playboy Bunny” like woman to the chapter that had no humanly possible way to read to the one I almost liked until the main character did something […]

An unorthodox biography for an unorthodox princess

Diana: My Graphic Obsession by Sivan Piatigorsky-Roth

March 21, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

CBR15Passport (other country English princess/Canadian author), Awhile back I contacted the company Street Noise for a few reader copies and put myself on their radar so I could receive emails from Liz like she sent the other day. This email was promoting a mid-June 2023 graphic novel release called Diana: My Graphic Obsession by Sivan Piatigorsky-Roth. Attached was an online reader link and boy did I want to read it. But I was at work and must wait. When I finally etched out reading time, […]
