Mini Reviews: ExtraOrdinary, Lore Olympus

Getting through some of these mini reviews so I can finally catch up on the major books I've been meaning to review (which isn't much, in retrospect...). Both are graphic novels released around the same time, and both quick reads! Have you read either of these books? What did you think?

Mini Reviews: Legend and Prodigy Graphic Novels

Mini Reviews: Legend and Prodigy Graphic Novels

I usually love it when I see graphic novel adaptations of books I love. In this case, though, the Legend series graphic novels actually brought me back to finishing up the trilogy itself. There was just so much emotional angst in Prodigy (none of which I reveled in) that I wasn't keen on picking up [...]

Mini Reviews: Monstress Vol. 5, Lady Justice

So I participated in the #24in48 Readathon this month, and that resulted in quite a number of books read for the month of February. These graphic novels were just some of the books I ended up finishing, and I love being ahead in my TBR pile for the year. So far, so good...we'll see how [...]

Mini Reviews: The Steel Prince, Vols. 2 and 3

Mini Reviews: The Steel Prince, Vols. 2 and 3

Here's a bit of a Schwabfest. It's been two years since I've actually read the first volume of The Steel Prince series (you can tell by the fact that I've since changed my mini-reviews format!), but it left such a lasting impression that I certainly had no trouble picking up where they left off! The graphics [...]

Mini Reviews: Wayward Vol. 3 and 4

Mini Reviews: Wayward Vol. 3 and 4

I've been meaning to post a few reviews but I kept forgetting to write anything down, which is weird, because I write EVERYTHING down. Anyway, finally got around to posting up some Wayward reviews! I like this series so far. There's been a bit of a divide, with some people falling off the interest wagon by Volume [...]

Mari-with-an-I prefers her fantasies drenched in oil and fried up in faerie, but when that’s not the case, she’ll read it anyway. She likes writing what she reads, and likes baking while she writes. She’s written a few things for anthologies, including an anthology that got translated into Czech (I know, right?! Eeeeee!), and if you haven’t read them yet, she urges you to do so! Who knows, there might be a few cookies waiting for you at the end of the read.

…Or not. (Blast her pet steampoctopus for eating them all!)

Reading Ratings (in Cookies)

5 cookies = Book was so deliciously awesome that I couldn't put it down or get it out of my mind for a while.

4 cookies = Book was great and certainly worth the read.

3 cookies = Book was good but I expected better.

2 cookies = Meh.

1 cookie = Why did I even bother?!

I have so much research to do this weekend but FIRST, let me soak in the fact I'm mostly recovered from the 'vid and it's now summer break and Fire Emblem Three Hopes just came out so we all know what I'm doing when I'm not at the waterfront đŸ˜‚
Another year done! Until the next!
