• Asgardians: Loki Review

  As night falls on Asgard there is one who does not dream. Loki, a trickster of epic proportions, has much to think on.

• Reading Log 2024

  1, 212 books! Or 1, 213. I forgot if added The Making of Gone with the Wind to my count as the last book of the year, and I’m too tired to recount everything again. Still, you read that right. Over a 1,000 books in one year. If you don’t believe look down below at…

  Titans: Starfire by Kami Garcia. Illustrated by Gabriel Picolo. After the less than steller preceding books, Garcia gets the plot momentum moving with a good dose of character development. Much like the others, Kori thinks she is a normal teenage, albeit a bit more introverted due to her Ehlers-danlos syndrome making socialization a literal pain…

• Asgardians: Odin Review

  Since I loved, loved, loved O’Connor’s Olympians series, I obviously had to check out his newest offering. The Asgardians! A quartet on the slightly less popular but just as well known Norse pantheon. As one can guess, the first book focuses on the All-Father, Odin, leader of the Aesir Gods and covers the creation myth…

  Initially I was going to stop at Gainman’s classic child horror tale, Coraline, but I saw that he has several fairytale adaptations in his repatoire so I felt I had to read them to complete my fairytale TBR pile. Let’s get to it! The Sleeper and the Spindle was the only “high school” level book…
