Welcome to my weird world!
You wanna know something? A few years ago my family bought a robotic vacuum cleaner, and we decided to name him Rambo. I had no idea for the longest time that they chose that name based off of this book. And I can see where the enjoyable enthusiasm in the name came from; Rambo is... Continue Reading →
Fable For The End Of The World is a suitable title for this book. The definition of a fable is a short story with a moral or two, usually involving animals. It has a moral and some very interesting creatures, plus it’s a standalone. It also has the material to warrant a franchise or at... Continue Reading →
Oh, the sweet throwbacks to nightmares we have in the school system, feeling like we’re the biggest unworthy screwups. Our hero in this fun little book is Jude Barnett, and for those unaware, this is a companion sequel to Instant Karma, that book being about Jude’s sister Prudence earning the ability for bad luck to...

A friend of mine who knows I’m into pirates, especially of the queer variety (we’re both forever Flag Means Death fans) lent me this book for me to read, and it was a step-up from some other recent works I’ve read. If anything, it’s made me more excited to finally try out the Pirates of... Continue Reading →
I haven't published any reviews in months, and I apologize for that. I've been battling depression and have been very out of it for reading, and a bunch of other stuff I like doing too. I'm slowly getting back to normal, and I have a bunch of reviews to publish, and, well, I just got... Continue Reading →
I was wondering if and when Ransom Riggs would release a new book, and if it would or would not be related to his megasmash Miss Peregrine series. The first three books in his original trilogy were all perfect scores on my old website, a series of adventure, fantasy, history, tension and heart that shot... Continue Reading →
I’m about to start reading Tahereh Mafi’s continuation of her world-famous Shatter Me series, and let’s just say I’ve had quite the long-term relationship with it. I published reviews of each book on my old website, and I actually have the review for the last one up here. Besides the new one, there’s been six... Continue Reading →
My first exposure to the first book, Ready Player One, was in movie form when my uncle dragged me to see it, and I originally gave it a B+, but upon retrospect, it turned into an A+ favourite. I then read the book and appreciated it was fairly different and gave it nine out of... Continue Reading →
This is the final Serpent & Dove book, and it’s a monstrous 600 pages. After the last book, Blood & Honey, took more effort than I expected to get through, I was a bit nervous about plowing through this one. I gave Blood and Honey 3 stars out of 5, but thinking about it in... Continue Reading →
If there’s one thing these Avatar books have taught me, or at least reminded me about, it is that our actions may not just influence today or tomorrow, but shape the world years or even generations into the future. The more power, the more it is possible, but boy, this is a complex universe, with... Continue Reading →
