Summer Vamp (A Graphic Novel) by Violet Chan Karim
Summer Vamp (A Graphic Novel) by Violet Chan Karim is a fun book. It is not an OMG BEST EVER book, but fun. I enjoyed reading it. As an adult, I am not the intended reader, but I can see where kids will love the vampire angle and the ideas of “coming of age” in a silly and relatable way. And at the same time it is a “grandparent book” or “This is a nice book with nothing really bad happening so the grandparent will […]
Crazy Like a Fox: Adventures in Schizophrenia by Christi Furnas
TRIGGERS: thoughts/talk of suicide, attempted suicide, toxic relationships/friendship, alcohol/drug use, mental health. Well Street Noise Books, you did it again with Christi Furnas and their Crazy Like a Fox: Adventures in Schizophrenia. This time, however, I both hated and loved a book from you. This is a surreal satire that is an all too realistic story of how one person (or Fox) goes down the rabbit hole of madness, but really it was just a bit twisted and would eventually start upwards again. Things are […]
Deep Thoughts from a Shallow Grave: Epitaphs to Die For by Anthony Martignetti
The Man Who Didn't Like Animals by Deborah Underwood
I like to read and I enjoy writing reviews. But sometimes a book is not able to produce a long review. There isn’t a lot to say, or if you do, there are more words in your review than the actual book. These below titles fall into that category as well as the category of sometimes you cannot find a theme to link books together in a review other than they don’t allow for longer reviews and they have nothing in common. And that is […]
The Great Puptective V01 by Alina Tysoe
Cloud Puppy V01 by Kelly Leigh Miller
I like trying to get all the Bingo categories as “pure” as possible. Even if I go with the spirit of things. And don’t like using Free Space if I can help it. It’s just a fun challenge for me. But I had the hardest time with Fan Fiction. But eventually I found one that fit perfectly! And since the category is way out of my wheelhouse, I was very excited! I wasn’t going to have to use my FREE SPACE. But I could have […]
Camp Nowhere #1: Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow by Lea Taddonio
PAWS: Priya Puts Herself First by Nathan Fairbairn
Two books that found their way to my reading pile recently were one of my least favorite reads this year (so far), and the other was one that helped take out a lot of my “it’s an icky world out there” feelings away. As I said, I think Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow (Camp Nowhere #1) by Lea Taddonio and illustrator Michelle Lamoreaux is one of my least favorite reads this year. I borrowed these statements from other reviewers. * “combine the idea of a comic […]
Wings of Fire Graphic Novel Book One: The Dragonet Prophecy by Tui T. Sutherland, Mike Holmes
Wings of Fire Graphic Novel Book Two: The Lost Heir by Tui T. Sutherland, Mike Holmes
Wings of Fire Graphic Novel Book Three The Hidden Kingdom by Tui T. Sutherland, Mike Holmes
Wings of Fire Graphic Novel Book Four The Dark Secret by Tui T. Sutherland, Mike Holmes
Wings of Fire Graphic Novel Book Five The Brightest Night by Tui T. Sutherland, Mike Holmes
The journey of the Wings of Fire Graphic Novel series was not a smooth one as I read volumes one and two out of order. Therefore, read the series in order, take your time and try to read as close together as possible as things pick up where we leave off from the previous book and it assumes you know the backstory. Book One: The Dragonet Prophecy by Tui T. Sutherland, Mike Holmes I have not read the novels this series is adapted from. However, considering […]
