When the overshadowed friend gets her turn as the MC

The White Cat’s Revenge as Plotted from the Dragon’ King’s Lap by Aki, Kureha, Yamigo

March 28, 2026 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

This was a library impulse grab. The White Cat’s Revenge as Plotted from the Dragon’ King’s Lap (v.1) is as you might guess from the title one of the trendy isekai manga with a long-ish title.  It is also as you might guess total fluff, wish fulfillment for anyone who might have felt overshadowed or … [Read more]

Half His Age by Jennette McCurdy

Half His Age by Jennette McCurdy

March 28, 2026 by Classic Leave a Comment

I went back and forth on this one. And ultimately, I settled on three stars, not because of the subject and how graphic the sex scenes are, but honestly, it just peters out at the 60 percent mark. After that, I really had a hard time believing the Waldo (main character) we have been following and … [Read more]

Something is Killing the Children is an ongoing comic series by James Tynion IV, Werther Dell'Edera, and Miquel Muerto (I copied and pasted all those names).

Mother Nature by Jamie Lee Curtis, Russell Goldman and Karl Stevens

March 27, 2026 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

SOME SPOILERS and possible triggers (but not as many as are in the book). Sometimes I wonder if people like something because they are "supposed to.” We are "supposed to” like a story about environmentalism. We are “supposed to” like something because the character(s) are of a minority (in Mother … [Read more]

Burn It Down: Rigsby WI Volume 2 by S. E. Case

March 27, 2026 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

A year ago (March 2025) Rigsby WI by S. E. Case came out and March 2026 Burn It Down: Rigsby WI Volume 2 came out.  Flux: Rigsby WI Volume 3 will be out in 2027 and I’m hoping that means volume four is in 2028. Of course, I want all the stories for each character now, as I'm not happy that I have to … [Read more]

Insectopolis: A Natural History by Peter Kuper

March 27, 2026 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Insectopolis: A Natural History by Peter Kuper is a crazy, wild, odd, neat, and informative read. I have read books on insects (mostly picture books and graphic novels for children to teens), but I think this might be my favorite read yet. Kuper mixes fiction, fantasy, speculative and non-fiction as … [Read more]

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