Two Reviews for Category Part Two

Meesh the Bad Demon #2: The Secret of the Fang: (A Graphic Novel) by Michelle Lam

City of Dragons V02 Rise of the Shadowfire: A Graphic Novel by Jaimal Yogis

Obviously Meesh the Bad Demon #2: The Secret of the Fang: (A Graphic Novel) by Michelle Lam is cbr16bingo Part Two because it says it is a Book Two in the title!  As is City of Dragons V02 Rise of the Shadowfire: A Graphic Novel. However, while I enjoyed both sequels, I was not as “into it” as book one. Still I like both and recommend them for the younger crowd, though there is some “spooky” to both, and especially in book one City of […]

The Prize is nothing less than the Shape of the Cosmos…. and other cliches

How Albert Fell Down the Rabbit Hole and Came Up with the Universe by Ken Krimstein

cbr16bingo And also…:  (Vintage, even though I haven’t (as of this posting) posted by review. It is a specific historical time and events) If it wasn’t for Albert Einstein, generations of high school students would not have been tortured by a dude and a cockroach. Thanks a lot Al! How do you ask? Well read How Albert Fell Down the Rabbit Hole and Came Up with the Universe by Ken Krimstein. Or at least that is what I got from the first part/the introduction of […]

I needed a catchy title and all I could come up with is: The words FIASCO and LAST tell you pretty much everything

The Last Delivery by Evan Dahm

 cbr16bingo Fiasco Read it, you’ll see what I mean! (SPOILER the mean fact I am saying it works for Fiasco tells you A LOT) I have read some out there things. Some really out there things. Some warped things. And some really warped things. But I think that The Last Delivery by Evan Dahm might almost win top prize for one of the most biz-aaaaaaaaaaaaar books!  I am giving this a three because someone probably will like it. I am giving it a three as there […]

So I fudged the category a bit… that’s words for ya!

A Chest Full of Words by Rebecca Gugger

 Cbr16bingo Cult  As I said in another review, I am in the business (literally) of finding future publications. And though 2024 is only half over (WAIT? That much???) 2025 is just around the corner for us booksellers. And because of that, we get access to future print titles constantly. Recently I found several picture books that are going to make next year pretty darn fantastic bookwise. The below book was read via an online reader copy and is due March 2025. Also I am giving […]

Rather hip witches

Wacky Witches and Their Peculiar Familiars by April Suddendorf

cbr16bingo Celestial  When I hear the word celestial I don’t think of Space or Stars, I think more spiritual, lofty, and Sun. The spiritual does lead to some religious aspects, but also more magical things. Like earth, and mother, and witches. The female theme comes together in a book for young readers/listeners. And while I think of myself as a feminist, I think we can “overdo” that sentiment. This  time, we are not getting it pushed too “hard” but it is not lacking. It does […]

If it has a sequel I’ll read it

Heebie Jeebies by Matthew Erman

 cbr16bingo  Bananas  I could have picked disco as there is a disco dancing math teacher, but I picked Bananas just because the whole thing is nuts. It is Humor 101. This should have ice cream and nuts and cherry on top. It is funny, it is sweet, it is not fattening, and you might even lose a few pounds laughing your buns off!  Heebie Jeebies by Matthew Erman and illustrated by Shelby Criswell is not my OMG favorite ever book, and is more of a […]
