• Book Tie Ins

  Now I’m not talking about the junior novelizations of movies and tv show episodes. I’m talking about books that seek to expand the universe and give side characters their time in the limelight like the dozens of Star Wars books. However, I never read or seen the full Star Wars trilogy so I don’t have…

• Musical Books

  What are your opinions on musical books? I have read quite a few last year and thoroughly enjoy not only getting to read the lyrics with its footnotes of inspiration and changed lines (while bopping to the soundtrack, of course) but I love getting a behind the scenes look from crafting the script, finding producers,…

• Dionysos: The New God Review

  Hey, it’s my birthday and I got the final book of George O’Connor’s The Olympians series as a gift.  And is Dionysos a fitting conclusion to this 10+ year series? You bet it is.  For those who don’t know, The Olympians is a comic series tackling each god in the Greek pantheon, depicting their fantastical…

• Bobbie Faye’s Very (very, very, very) Bad Day Review

  I found this in my search for my comedoc mysteries like Stephanie Plum. While funny, I found it to be more like a comedic action flick on steroids.

• Book Highlight: Confessions of a Slightly Neurotic Hitwoman #1-2

  I’ll confess first, I thought this was going to be another funny crime comedy book in the vein of Stephanie Plum. While it did have some aspects of that since Maggie’s concussion gave her the magical ability to understand animals, and its all based in NJ, it has a lot more heart. Maggie has issues,…
