Andre The Giant: Life And Legend by Box Brown | Book Review

September 7, 2014

I am really taken with non-fiction graphic novels. I already legitimately love non-fiction books and love graphic novels, so the combination for Andre The Giant: Life And Legend by Box Brown had me over the moon excited.

Vampire Academy: The Graphic Novel by Richelle Mead | Book Review

Pretty much this book took me exactly 40 minutes to read and let me tell you straight out that I refuse to spend longer on this review than the book took me to read, it’s just the principle of the matter.

The Fourth Wish by Lindsay Ribar | Book Review

September 2, 2014

Ribar’s sequel, The Fourth Wish is a charming conclusion to the duology and one that leaves me quite satisfied with the ending. Let’s just say that there are no cliffhangers, thank goodness. It’s a real and legitimate ending.
