Mini Reviews: Tunnel of Bones, The Alchemist

Mini Reviews: Tunnel of Bones, The Alchemist

My reading has been very scarce lately, but I'm trying to get back in the beat! I did end up spending a weekend reading Tunnel of Bones, which is pretty much the only thing I'm caught up in at the moment. No regrets, though! The other title took much longer, mostly because I wasn't so keen [...]

Mini Reviews: The Good Neighbor, Ghost

Mini Reviews: The Good Neighbor, Ghost

So far, so good with these reviews! At this rate my audiobooks will have numbered more than the hard copy books I've read this year. Maybe by next year, they'll overtake my reading list! ...Probably not, but it does seem like I'm listening to more audiobooks than actual reading. It helps that I can multitask [...]

Mini Reviews: Rich People Problems, Code Girls

Mini Reviews: Rich People Problems, Code Girls

I figure since I was doing quite a number of revamps that I'd also get them done for mini reviews! I find that whenever I'm reading on the go my reviews tend to be very short, and it's gotten harder to come up with a lot to say with a few of the minis. If [...]

Mini Reviews: American Gods, Vol. 1 and 2

Mini Reviews: American Gods, Vol. 1 and 2

I've lapsed in watching the show after season 1, but reading the graphic novel really did make me want to get back on the wagon! I loved this book, so seeing it in several different mediums is always fun. American Gods illustrates the idea that the gods of the old world followed their worshippers when they [...]

Mini Reviews: Paper Girls, Vol. 4 and 5

Mini Reviews: Paper Girls, Vol. 4 and 5

I may have only the final volume of Paper Girls to read...I think. I put the "I think" on there because I'm dubious as to how this is all going to pan out in one last volume. See, this is the type of series I'd honestly read back to back, because if I leave the reading for [...]

Mari

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 know I have so many things to read right now, but I've been totally waiting for this since I finished the first book last year and and I TOTALLY PEEKED THROUGH THE BOOK AND I LIKE WHAT I SEE. #bookstagram #bookish #childrenofvirtueandvengeance #tomiadeyemi #books #booknerd
