Hello friends, My Brother's Husband by Gengoroh Tagame is wholesome, diverse, adorable. Despite the slow pace at the start, it built up into a well written plot, that I spent most of two hours devouring. The art was cute, and I liked the real life implications within the story. Canada + Japan culture were both … Continue reading Book Review (sort of): My Brother’s Husband
Book Review: DNF’d
Hello friends, Valentine by Elizabeth Wetmore was a novel that I picked this up, and read three chapters, before I DNF'd it. The writing was good. Really, really excellent. But the story itself was not meant for me, as I was most definitely not the right target audience at this point and time. Violent, gritty, … Continue reading Book Review: DNF’d

Arc Review: The Kingdom of Liars
The Kingdom of Liars by Nick Martell was a fast paced political fantasy with rebellion, a unique magic set up, and plenty of intrigue.

This six hundred page fantasy epic had both magic and guns, explosions … Continue reading Arc Review: The Kingdom of Liars
