That disappointment when combining 2 great things makes them less good

Breath of the Dragon by Fonda Lee

January 16, 2025 by Jen K Leave a Comment

I really liked Fonda Lee’s Green Bone Saga – there was a lot going on so it took a second to get into them but once I was hooked, I couldn’t stop being impressed by what she did: it was an Asian influenced fantasy in a modern day setting with Mafia vibes, and felt very much like The Godfather movies as far as the span of the story. The series starts at a time where old and new are colliding and ends in a world […]

January 2, 2014 by TylerDFC 4 Comments

While enjoying a joyous Christmas yule with my family and loved ones I was gifted a copy of famous anchorman Ron Burgundy’s tome of generous wisdom by my wife and lover. I should express that my copy of Ron’s manual of manhood, Let Me Off at the Top!, is bound in rich Corinthian leather and inked with a generous dollop of real howler monkey blood, as you know the rarest ink imaginable. While the small children toddled about with their wooden steamships and the older […]

    I suspect I got more enjoyment reading your review than you did of the actual book. "Jail, jail for author...

    This sounds perfectly awful, but I do love this review.

    I wish I had read this review before I bought this Audible book. I am just at the halfway point...

    May I join you at that dinner party? This book is well worth reading.
