Maas event having not read any of the Throne of Glass series… #awkward. What started as an ad-hoc challenge for myself on Twitter has become the real deal. So behold, my reading challenge for 2018! About the Challenge The aim of A Series A Month […]

Trigger warnings: drug abuse, grief (loss of family) Oh guys. That was so adorable. After being humiliated on Youtube during the summer, Cat doesn’t want to go back to school. To control the message and keep her spot on the school newspaper, she enlists loner Alex into being her fake boyfriend.

#GraphicNovelReview: SAGA VOL. 1 by Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples

#GraphicNovelReview: SAGA VOL. 1 by Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples

I just had no interest in seeing the weird humanoid centipede prostitute or the robot people having sex. I wasn’t outraged by it; I just didn’t care. In fact, I feel like that’s my whole attitude to Saga: I didn’t care. It was different and it tried to entice me, but nah. I liked some of the characters on their […]
