First Test Graphic Novel by Tamora Pierce, Devin Grayson, and Becca Farrow – REVIEW
Tamora Pierce’s Tortall fantasy world first began with her Song of the Lioness series in 1983, which quickly became a fan-favorite. Pierce’s Tortall world includes twenty books in six separate book series and is known for its strong female characters.

Wolfpitch by Balazs Lorinczi – REVIEW
Wolfpitch is a delicious and pitch-perfect YA graphic novel. With an impressive combination of diverse women, friendships, competition, music, and milkshakes, there’s not more you could want. Not to mention, it completely made my day when I read it. Continue reading

Suffrage Song by Caitlin Cass – REVIEW
I continue to surprise myself by finding more nonfiction titles that interest me. As someone who reads very little nonfiction, I’m excited that more seems to catch my interest! Following along the same lines as my other recent nonfiction reads, Monster, She Wrote and The League of Lady Poisoners, Suffrage Song tells the stories of historical Continue reading

Scales & Tales by Kevin Sherry – REVIEW
I have a bit of a confession – I have never actually played Dungeons and Dragons (or any other RPG tabletop game for that matter). I’ve always wanted to, but I never knew exactly where to start. We have a local game store that hosts D&D games, but joining a game is a little daunting Continue reading

Bad Dreams in the Night by Adam Ellis – REVIEW
Like most 90s kids, I grew up on scary stories and urban legends. One of my favorite shows as a kid was “Are You Afraid of the Dark?” A show where kids sit around a campfire and take turns telling ghost stories shouldn’t work, but it did. In a lot of ways, Adam Ellis’s Bad Dreams Continue reading

BRZRKR: Bloodlines, Volume 1 – REVIEW
The record-breaking BRZRKR series from Keanu Reeves follows B, a half-mortal and half-god being who is centuries old, compelled to violence, and cursed. Although the main series from the core creative team ended in 2023, several standalone issues from other creatives have been released and will be collected in the upcoming volume BRZRKR: Bloodlines, Volume 1.

Eden by Christopher Sebela and Marc Laming – REVIEW
I’ve been excited to dig into the Eden comic series for a long time. Sci-fi comics are my jam, and the art, family dynamics, and survive-at-all-costs feel of Eden drew me in. Also, we all know I can’t resist a story with themes of a dying Earth, a dystopian system, and corrupt corporations. Continue reading

Graphic Novel Review: Ghostlore, Vol. 1 by Cullen Bunn and Leomacs
Sometimes I’m struck by how much I like a graphic novel, especially when it takes me by surprise. It took me a few tries to get invested in Ghostlore. For whatever reason, I opened Ghostlore, Vol. 1 three different times without making it past the first few pages. This last time, though, I picked it up, and something Continue reading

That feeling when the setting is so comfortable you could sink into it or when the characters feel like old friends you’re catching up with. That’s how reading I Feel Awful Thanks felt for me. I Feel Awful, Thanks is Continue reading
