If you ever need to solve a mystery, having Maomao or her father (adopted or biological) around is essential. The Apothecary Diaries Vol. 13 helps confirm that theory, as Maomao carefully orchestrates a way to reveal who’s behind the attempted assassination.

There are a few thriller authors whom I will read their books without even checking the description; Kate Alice Marshall is one of them. So obviously, I had to pick up We Won't All Survive from my local library!

The bright side to being behind on a series is that you can binge-read a couple of volumes back to back. Love Everlasting Vol. 2 probably doesn’t hit as hard as the first volume, but it’s still worth reading. That said, I still have a million questions.

While X-Force was not my favorite of the six original From the Ashes series, I don’t think it deserved to get canceled. I was enjoying learning about different characters, and X-Force Vol. 2 really reminded me of that fact. The creative team did a great job of…

If you love Susan Dennard’s previous series or writing, you’ve got to check out The Executioners Three. It’s got those dark vibes and fantastical elements, and that’s just the beginning. There’s also a solidly autumnal feeling to the tale, which…

It seems like the introduction of new characters always kicks off some sort of wild supernatural or paranormal event. Vamola kicked off this event, begging the question: Is this the longest arc so far? I’m too lazy to go back and count, but it feels comparable to Jiji’s…

I’ve got to be honest with you here: I did not have this sequel on my bingo card. Maybe I should have, given how popular The Woman in Cabin 10 was. The Woman in Suite 11 picks up a few years later, but the two primary characters are very much the same.

The stakes keep getting higher in Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, and the third installment of this series is no exception. Side note: I’ve swapped to reading Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint through Webtoons, so I’m doing my best to keep the chapters in…

If you love horror, romance (with tragedy), and time loops, Love Everlasting Vol. 1 is the story for you. It’s a little bit like Groundhog Day, if Groundhog Day revolved around falling in love.

I’ll admit, I was a bit on the fence about X-Force when I first started reading it. Mostly, I was keeping up with it because I was desperately trying (and somewhat failing) to keep up with all the comics in From the Ashes.

I knew that Amal El-Mohtar was going to deliver a beautiful fantasy tale here, but The River Has Roots far exceeded my expectations. This was a magical tale, and I’m not talking about the faerie magic.

This is my favorite volume of the series, thus far. If you’ve read it, you probably know why! The Apothecary Diaries Vol. 12 perfectly balances drama, romantic potential, and comedy. So it’s perfection.

Ahhhh! It’s here! I am obsessed with Villains Are Destined to Die, so I’m psyched to be reading the next volume of this series. I’m currently in the process of binge-reading my way through it again on Tapas, in the hopes that I can get ahead of the manga…

Okay, so you pitch a graphic novel to me and you promise it’ll be just Spirited Away, with a dash of A Very Goofy Movie vibes, and you just know I’m gonna read it. So, I did! Love, Misha has some very solid comps, but it lives up to those set expectations.

Man, I thought the first volume was chaotic (and admittedly fun). X-Factor Vol. 2 leans even heavier into the commentary, satire, and yes, chaos. It’s a mixed bag, as there are some elements that I really enjoyed.

I am slowly (oh so slowly) working my way through Martha Wells’ back catalog. It helps that Tor has kindly been republishing a lot of her older works, giving me the motivation to pick up the pace (and the books!).
