Cozy fantasy and Sci-fi are my self care reads. I love a good magic system and dragons are always welcome. I like my Sci-fi LGBTQ+ positive. YA and Romance fill a sweet spot. And I never underestimate good children's fiction! (Learn more about this Cannonballer: Dome’Loki's Quick Questions interview.)

Concluding the Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles. Volume 28

Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle Vol. 28 by CLAMP

by 2 Comments

And so the great Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle read through has come to an end.  Shout out to William Flanagan, who wrote the English translation for all twenty eight volumes, churning out translations to keep pace with the publications in Japan.  At the end of each volume he would include some translation notes, sometimes explaining a cultural norm, or showing the process of how he came to use the translation chosen for a particular section.  The writer/artist collective CLAMP used Tsubasa as a way to mix […]

Volume 23 – The original and the copy are going at it in dreams, Sakura is horrified by their actions.  Everyone outside the dreaming is waiting impatiently, as there is nothing they can do.  Original Syaoran has fallen and Sakura runs to his side.  Copy Syaoran even goes so far as to wound Sakura in his quest to get the feather inside O-Syaoran.  Fei-Wang Reed goads C-Syaoran saying that Sakura’s soul is not important to his plans (only her body is necessary) so go ahead and […]

Volume 17 – In all the fighting, and teleporting, in and out of the cistern, the water reservoir has been nearly depleted.  Yuko can fill the reservoir and save Fai’s life but it involves people asking for wishes and being able to fulfill payment for the wish.  The end result is that Fai, despite his desire to die, will be saved by being made into a vampire with Kamui’s blood.  But because it is Kurogane’s wish, he must take responsibility for Fai, as such the only […]

Why this all began,  Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles read through. Volume 14 – The volume opens with Yuko and Fei-Wang Reed throwing verbal barbs at one another while magically communicating across dimensions.  In Recort, Syaoran and Kurogane discuss the discovery that the people who killed Kurogane’s mother and attacked Syaoran’s country are from the same dimension.  This adds a new reason to keep dimension hopping. Sakura and Fai have been investigating and learned that the book that allowed Syaoran to see Kurogane’s memory is literally called, ‘the […]

The sun summoner who became a saint, concluding the Shadow and Bone trilogy

Seige and Storm: The Shadow and Bone Trilogy book 2 by Leigh Bardugo

Ruin and Rising: The Shadow and Bone Trilogy book 3 by Leigh Bardugo

Leigh Bardugo started off the first book in her Grishaverse, Shadow and Bone, with a neat mechanic, there was a “Before” section, and then chapter one.  It sets up the background of the book in a simplistic, story book format, referring to the main characters as boy and girl, instead of using their names.  At the end, there was an “After” section following the last chapter.  Same form as at the beginning, but wrapping things up.  She continued doing this for books two and three […]

Thank you, Leedock!

Thank you, Leedock!  Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell and Everlost: Book 1 of the Skinjacker Trilogy by Neal Shusterman would have been awesome enough.  But you also included this fantastic mug! I’ve always loved this phrase, “I’m not a Book Worm, I’m a Book Dragon”.  I consider dragons to be my spirit animal.  Here is some of my collection.  Thank you so very much!  Congratulations on your cannonball this year, best wishes for a lovely holiday season, and good luck on 2020’s cannonball read.  Warm Regards,  […]
