The Murder of Mr. Wickham by Claudia Gray

November 2, 2022 by narfna Leave a Comment

The short, spoiler-free version: Two thumbs up, very fun. Surprisingly angsty. Does justice to murder mysteries and to Jane Austen. The longer, mostly spoiler-free version (spoils the premise and which characters are in the book from the Jane Austen canon): But where is Elinor?? I am disappointed that she only merits a couple of mentions in this book when we are in Marianne’s POV, but maybe Claudia Gray just doesn’t love her as much as I do. That’s pretty easy to do, I guess, because […]

Found Family is Just My Favorite Trope, Forever

It's Called A Flush by Deniigiq

Flush: Chatlog by Deniigiq

April 28, 2022 by NTE Leave a Comment

My brother is an OG-we-had-the-Darth-Vadar-Cases-for-our-action-figures Star Wars fan. One of the only things my brother says he will never forgive my mom for is falling asleep in the theater when she watched A New Hope for the first time: In her defense, she was 16, and leaving the house childless for the first time since my brother was born, so she was pretty tired. She remembers the words crawling up the screen, a ship, and that’s all folks. New moms everywhere can understand. I know […]

April 1, 2022 by Jake Leave a Comment

These are the books I finished in the month of March in which I didn’t have time or words to elaborate on… Batman: The Killing Joke *** Two of my favorites team up for a Batman prose novel? Yes! But the end result is just okay. Interestingly enough, I think both writers do a better job with the random Gothamites than they do with the Caped Crusader and his primary nemesis. You’re fine just reading Alan Moore’s legendary graphic novel. The Big East: Inside the […]

Weirdos, teenagers, degenerates, and women

Ship It by Britta Lundin

March 23, 2022 by carmelpie 2 Comments

“Real writing” is done by serious people, whereas fanfiction is written by weirdos, teenagers, degenerates, and women.” This is a comics convention. When did this industry start caring about what fourteen-year-old girls like? Have you ever found a book that feels as if it was written just for you? From the first two chapters, I was in love with this book. Small town girl – Check. Self-identified outcast – Check. Obsessed over a band or a show or a movie to the point of writing […]

There was no other way I could go with the Self Care BINGO square than by reviewing a fanfic. #CBRBINGO – Self Care

Dan Westchester, Hello Kitty Enthusiast by violue

August 4, 2021 by narfna 15 Comments

Link to the story on AO3: Dan Westchester, Hello Kitty Enthusiast Firstly, if you are not familiar with fanfic (which I hope is not many of you, because it is a true pleasure to indulge in) many fics have individual titles but are part of a series that also has a title. I’ve used the series title for this one, Dan Westchester, Hello Kitty Enthusiast, because it makes me laugh, and because I honestly think it’s a better title than part one of the fic, […]

I Loved This One Unabashedly and Hope You Do Too

All the Feels by Olivia Dade

July 11, 2021 by faintingviolet 3 Comments

I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All the Feels publishes November 16th, 2021 (originally scheduled for October 26th, 2021.) Last year I read and loved Spoiler Alert and was excited to see that there would be another book in the universe. All the Feels takes everything I loved about the first book and deepens it, makes it stronger and better. All the Feels is very likely going to make it into my top three books of […]
