Mini Reviews: The Alchemyst, Monstress Vol. 4

Mini Reviews: The Alchemyst, Monstress Vol. 4

Getting back into gear with some SFF reviews! I've been following each volume of Monstress ever since I read the first volume up on Netgalley some time ago. So this is no different, despite my not having made it to the 2019 NYCC; despite BookCon being cancelled this year. All the same, I do love [...]

Mini Reviews: Paper Girls, Ali Wong

All about the girls in this post! I'd been meaning to finish the Paper Girls series for ages now, and actually found myself with the opportunity to do so. Thankfully, I borrowed a couple of graphic novels from my library before it closed down due to the lockdowns across the country, and here we are. What I've [...]

Lost in Japan || Wayward Review

Lost in Japan || Wayward Review

Initial Thoughts: Picked this up because I saw the artwork and was intrigued by the fact that this takes place in Japan (because of course I'm biased). A little shaky, confusing, and too many character intros that are too short, but I do like them Japanese demons and the art is phenomenal! Will pick up [...]

Mini Reviews: Paper Girls, Vol. 2 and 3

Mini Reviews: Paper Girls, Vol. 2 and 3

Catching up on my book review lists! I'm looking forward to reading the last volume in this series, but holy heck, I swear Vaughan throws so many random curve balls in his stories that in the case of Paper Girls I'm still scratching my head with confusion in these next two volumes. That being said, I [...]

Mini Reviews: Saga, Volumes 8 and 9

Mini Reviews: Saga, Volumes 8 and 9

I just got off the #24in48 Reading Challenge last weekend, so instead of scrambling to get books read for review, I find that I've an abundance of books to review! Which is a good thing, I suppose, because now I'm ahead of my Goodreads goal for the year. Which makes this post Saga-centric. If you don't know what [...]

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?!

January book wrapup! Loving the new style for this year's reading journal. Might change how I do the book summaries tho. With grad school happening during the month, six books isn't bad!
Daughter of the Moon Goddess was my first @fairyloot subscription, and ever since then, I've been obsessed by their special edition books. I'm glad I got to snag the second book of this duology! #daughterofthemoongoddess #heartofthesunwarrior #suelynntann #fairyloot #specialedition #books #bookstagram
