Books and Coffee and Pastries, Oh My!

Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree

by Leave a Comment

CBR18 BINGO: Friends I feel like I would really like Travis Baldree if I met him in person. Based on the number of women in his books and the way he writes about them, he really seems to just love women in a non-creepy way. His books are cozy and it almost feels like he decided one day, “I like coffee and books and pastries, so I’m going to write about those things,” and luckily enough, readers want to read about those things. There’s something […]

A Romantasy Road Trip

Swordheart by T, Kingfisher

by Leave a Comment

CBR18 BINGO: Steal  CW for suicidality It’s official. After reading two books by Kingfisher, getting mad that I had to go to bed because I didn’t want to put them down, and ultimately really enjoying both of them, I am now a Kingfisher fan and will be reading as much of her work as I can (most likely excluding some of the horror). At the beginning of Swordheart, Halla is considering taking drastic action after being locked in her room for 3 days. She inherited her great […]

Reunited and It Doesn’t Feel Good At All

The Reunion by K.A. Applegate

The Conspiracy by K.A. Applegate

by 4 Comments

Hey, remember last January when I said I was gonna read all the Animorphs books in one year? WELL, I DIDN’T! I got less than one-half of the way through! But, to be fair, my own book came out last year AND it was the first year of P3d0President 2.0 so I was pretty f*ckin’ busy being an author and being mad all the time! THE REUNION is book 30 in the series. It’s a Marco book so you know it will be full of […]

“There are no squids in America!” (a la An American Tale)

The Pretender by K. A. Applegate

The Attack by K. A. Applegate

The Exposed by K. A. Applegate

The Sickness by K.A. Applegate

I don’t know how they did it, but these Animorphs books just keep getting crazier. I’m almost sad I skipped a few “skippable” titles, cuz what crazy hijinks am I missing?! Book 23 – The Pretender A Tobias book. Tobias is having weird flashes when he hunts small prey, where he finds himself seeing the POV of said prey. He also learns a cousin is looking for him (since he seemingly disappeared into nowhere after becoming a hawk-4-life). Turns out that person was just Visser-3 […]

Oh no, they (almost) killed David!

The Discovery by K. A. Applegate

The Threat by K. A. Applegate

The Solution by K. A. Applegate

by 3 Comments

The Animorphs created a psychopath then abandoned him on an island of rats. Yes, I just finished Animorphs books 20 thru 22, the David Trilogy. See, the Animorphs meet a new kid named David (who, in my headcast, is tween Mark-Paul Gosselaar). This new kid is playing with a familiar blue cube – the very Andalite cube that gave the Animorphs their morphing powers! They attempt a stealth mission at David’s house to get the cube back, fearful the Yeerks will get their hands on […]

And I have volume three waiting!

The Changeling: Volume 2 by Tina N. Lugo

by Leave a Comment

The Changeling: Volume 2 by Tina N. Lugo is obviously the second in The Changeling series. And therefore, I recommend reading the first book first. And if you can find all three of the currently available titles, you should read them together, as while I was reading this manga series, I was hoping that it is only a trilogy. It is not that I did not like it (I would not have read two volumes if it was horrible), it is just that the story, […]
