The value of female friends over boys wins for once

Komi Can't Communicate, vol. 17 by Tomohito Oda

May 14, 2022 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

Komi Can’t Communicate is mostly a cozy manga series about high school kids and friendship. It’s reasonably predictable with no real disasters and some occasional comic moments. The protagonist Komi is the class beauty but she’s got social anxiety to the point where it’s difficult for her to speak … [Read more]

The Red Devil Rides Again

Red Sonja Volume 3: The Forgiving of Monsters by Gail Simone

May 14, 2022 by Halbs Leave a Comment

This third volume of Gail Simone's stories about the Hyrkanian warrior wraps up the author's fantastic run on Red Sonja series. Simone brings adventure, heart, and humor to a character that could easily be one dimensional in the wrong hands. She is kind of like Gronk in a chainmail bikini. … [Read more]

Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World by William McRaven

May 14, 2022 by Halbs Leave a Comment

I went to the University of Texas, so Admiral Bill McRaven's 2014 commencement speech "If you want to change the world, make your bed," has a special place in my burnt orange heart. But the speech has a ton of important and practical life advice applicable to anyone. You can grab an idea or short … [Read more]

Beautiful MG that Spoke to my Inner Angry Child

The Science of Being Angry by Nicole Melleby

May 14, 2022 by LB 1 Comment

I do not know how to put into words how much this book means, but it hits me so hard in the feelings. I’ve been obsessed with Melleby’s books since I read In the Role of Brie Hutchens… and every time I fall more in love with her stories and characters. The Science of Being Angry is no different, … [Read more]

Shout by Laurie Halse Anderson

May 14, 2022 by Travis_J_Smith Leave a Comment

Another thrift store find. My copy is missing the dust jacket, and its pages are stained by an unknown substance on the bottom of the book, but I'm not gonna complain too much for $2.99. I recognized the author, yet I cannot recall with certainty whether I read her most well-known work, Speak, or … [Read more]

Two “friends” talk over pizza…

She-Hulk #3 by Rainbow Rowell

May 14, 2022 by Travis_J_Smith Leave a Comment

Can I start this review with a short review of the Marvel subscription service? It might save you money, but it's kinda trash in every other respect. I thought subscribing mere days after the first issue of She-Hulk came out would net me that issue, but no. Then the second issue didn't arrive until … [Read more]

    Yes! It’s downright offensive! I do love Lady Catherine

    I really enjoyed this one. I was particularly amused at Lady Catherine deBoutgh’s disgust at her assassin’s incompetence.
