You Are What You Read
Rating: 5 stars I received this eARC from Image Comics via Edelweiss+ in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of this book in any way. “It’s pretty simple. A world built on genocide and slavery isn’t a world worth existing!” The Art THE COLORS!!!! This was beautiful!!!! The color palate …

Rating: 2 stars I haven’t been living under a rock. I know that the names Scott Snyder and Stephen King are enough to make random people turn their heads when they overhear you in a supermarket. So I figured, why not tackle both names at once? Why not read a comic they wrote together? And …

Rating: 3 stars π well this was a disappointment. I’ve been largely pleasantly surprised by this series. It’s surpassed all my expectations, going far darker and far more emotionally resonant than I ever thought it would. But this installment kind of just…wasn’t what I wanted? Ultimately, this book felt like two, if not three (and …

Rating: 2 stars Well that sucked. The Art The art was good…sometimes. Usually, it was painfully awkward and had that certain quality so common in Western comics and graphic novels: what I call “rushed by a deft hand.” The artist was good, undeniably so, but they were also very clearly rushed, or just didn’t care …

Rating: 3 stars I honestly don’t have a lot of thoughts on this, other than that it went on for too long and repeated plot points far too often. I enjoyed it as much as I’ve enjoyed all the previous books in this series, in that it was entirely forgettable but I had a decently …

Rating: 5 stars Time to be honest: this was the very first Nancy Drew anything I’ve ever read. Same for the Hardy Boys. I even had some of their books on my shelf growing up. I just didn’t really care enough or thought they would be boring since they weren’t about fairies or sharks (I …

Rating: 3 stars I received this eARC from Iron Circle Comics via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of this book in any way. Honestly, this wasn’t as bad as the average review makes it seem. It’s not very good, but that mostly comes down to awkward dialogue, …
Rating: 5 stars All at once, as it seemed, something we could have only imagined was upon usβand we could still only imagine it. This is what fascinates me most in existence: the peculiar necessity of imagining what is, in fact, real. This was a very difficult book to read, and an even harder book …
Rating: 5 stars Therapist: The Beast isn’t real, it can’t hurt you The Beast: “There isn’t anyone to help you. Only me. And I’m the Beast.” Buy the book here: Amazon Book Depository
Rating: 4 stars (Original rating: 5 stars) Buddy read this reread with Nana and sort of accidentally binged it again Β―\_(γ)_/Β― Honestly, my opinion remains almost entirely the same, except that I found this infinitely more redundant this time, hence the lower star rating. Like, it irked me an irrational amount every time “Hermetic” was said and …
