• Ranking Kat the Time Traveler

  It’s the summer so I’m back on my summer reread. Which is a lot of kids book, mainly from the late 90s. Yes, they’re generic and cliche but they’re also very comfortable like an old. . . like an old book. Anyway, let’s get to it. The premise follows 10 year old Kat and her…

• Book Highlight: Obviously Imogen

  Since it’s Pride Month, I figured I should priotize some LGTBQ centered book and what better start than with Becky Albertalli. I mean The Upside of Unrequited and Simon vs the Homo Sapien Agenda were great, and this new story was no exception especially as it’s one close to Albertalli’s experience. You may have heard…

• Ranking Girlhood Journeys

  Now this series may be more popular in the doll collectors circle, but I’ve always been more into books than dolls and read each trillogy assigned to each doll that tells a little about what it is like for ten year olds back in their respective time periods. There’s also a 13th book about a…

• The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner Review

  Alright, I lied in the previous review when I said I was done with the series. There’s one more piece of the larger Twilight universe. A non essential piece technically as it has no bearing on Bella’s story in the big picture but provides an interesting glimpse into the life of newborns. The novella follows…

• Quarentine Princess Diaries

  Ah yes, the long awaited return of Mia Thermopolis of Genovia. Or maybe not so much long awaited but a fun surprise! Much like Royal Wedding, Mia’s story ended nicely with her tenth diary but it is such a delight to see the familiar cast of characters and how they’ve grown especially in the most…

• Ranking The Chronicles of Prydian

  No, not the Disney movie, the Disney movie butchered the books if that’s what you’re thinking of when it comes to The Black Cauldron. But you wouldn’t be reading this if you were into the Disney movie, would you? I’ve noticed I have made my rankings longer than necessary by describing the plot which I…

• Pop’s Chock’lit Shop of Horrors Review

  Here comes another anaology horror series from Archie Horror! Die and Dash is the story that brings readers to the Chocklit Shop that has turned from cheerful 50s nostaglia to something far more sinister as when Nick and Sherry get caught trying to dine and dash. First off, I loved the choice to have Nick…
