  • Thunder Girls

    Joan Holub and Suzanne Williams are back at it again. Their mai series is a long-running, well executed, semi-modern spin on Greek Myths. Now they take on Norse mythology as the Vanir, Aesir, Jotunheim and other creatures go to school at Asgard Academy.

  • The Other Black Girl Review

    Just as everyone was raving about Harris’ new book in the NYT last year, I had to jump on the wagon and see what the fuss was about, and I agree, it is for the most part a really good book.

  • Archie Comics-Where to start?

    As Archie Comics celebrates its 80th anniversary, it can be overwhelming to know where to start. After all, to begin at #1 can quickly unravel considering the multiple titles and issues, some of which are very had to find. Online and on ebay.

  • Mean Girls: Senior Year Review

    Like the back said, Mean Girls was a bonafide 200s hit, so why not milk the cow and push out a sequel. And I’m not talking the disasterous sequel movie no one talks about.

    These Disney movies were based on books. And I’m not talking about the classic fairytale princesses but. . . Bambi, a Life in the Woods by Felix Salten The Rescuers by Margery Sharp (this was actually a series) 101 Dalmatians by Dodie Smith (also has a sequel) Just a fun thing that I discovered at…

    Or Eighteen Years in the Wilderness by Mason A. Walton is a perfect book for those who enjoy Wild Animals I Have Known, Walden or any nature books. It’s pretty self-explanatory as Mason writes in his intro that he went out to a log cabin in the country for stress relief from city life much…
