When book two makes you get the other series and book one….

The Only Living Girl V02: Beneath the Unseen City by David Gallaher

April 27, 2022 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I missed that the book I had in my hand was a book two when I picked up The Only Living Girl V02: Beneath the Unseen City by David Gallaher. However, it was not as difficult to follow as you might think. Of course, the “previously on “The Only Living Girl” recap did assist me in knowing where I was, but it would have been much better to have read first the “The Only Living Boy” series (which seems to introduce not only a few […]

Better that they go to people who do have time to read them, and may also actually review them. But I’ve been following Blair Braverman, writer and dogsledder, on Twitter for years now and have read both her memoir, Welcome to the Goddamn Ice Cube, and her Tough Love column for Outside magazine; obviously I have also loved her many Twitter threads about her […]

The basic set up is, well, pretty basic: misfit teens up against their own social structure and a corrupt regulatory force in a race against time to stop the big bad thing from being big and bad. The misfits get into […]
