CBR14Bingo “Series” –Hollywood Heroine is the fifth book in the Heroine Complex series. Hollywood Heroines finds Aveda Jupiter and Evie Tanaka heading to Los Angeles to visit the set of a pilot being filmed about their adventures.  A while back they agreed to sell the rights to their story but hadn’t paid much attention to the development until the studio, Pinnacle Pictures, reached out about the visit.  Aveda is still stressed from the ghost incident in the previous book, Haunted Heroine.  She isn’t comfortable with change […]

August 7, 2022 by Dome'Loki Leave a Comment

CBR14 Bingo: “Shadow” – One of the wells of sorcery is Shadow, gifting the user with the ability to switch places with their shadow and move between shadows. Siege of Rage and Ruin is the conclusion to Wexler’s “Wells of Sorcery” trilogy that started with Ship of Smoke and Steel, and was followed up by City of Stone and Silence. Isoka’s plan is simple.  Sneak ashore outside Kahnzoka’s harbor.  Hitch a ride with a merchant traveling to the city.  Get to her sister Tori and slip […]

And so the mythos of Gaiman’s Sandman begins – CBR14 Bingo: Adapt

The Sandman, volume 1: Preludes and Nocturnes by Neil Gaiman, Mike Dringenberg (illustrator), Sam Keith (illustrator), Malcolm Jones III (illustrator), Robbie Busch (colorer), Todd Klein (letterer)

August 3, 2022 by Dome'Loki Leave a Comment

CBR14 Bingo: “Adapt” – The Sandman has recently been adapted into a television series. I discovered The Sandman graphic novels in 2000 and instantly became a fan (with collectibles to show for it!).  I’m a sucker for beautiful book editions and when the “Absolute Sandman” editions were released I couldn’t resist.  What makes them ‘Absolute’?  To quote  the Amazon blurb, “The Absolute Sandman Vol. 1 collects issues #1-20 of The Sandman and features completely new coloring, approved by the author on the first 18 issues, as well […]

The bond between mother and daughter, the joy of shared food, and the devastating loss of a parent – CBR14 Bingo: Heart

Crying in H-Mart: A Memoir by Michelle Zauner

July 30, 2022 by Dome'Loki Leave a Comment

CBR14 Bingo: “Heart” –  In this heartbreaking memoir, Michelle Zauner shares her love for her mother and their connection through a love of food. Last year I heard on NPR an interview with Zauner, a Korean American, when she released her debut book, Crying in H-Mart: A Memoir.  I was instantly interested in small part because I too shop at H-Mart, a Korean grocery chain in the United States.  Then I became engrossed by listening to Zauner talk about her mother’s death and food.  I […]

The book "Warehouse Dreams" by Theresa Halverson standing next to a book bingo card.

The author told me it was a bit like X-Men and I agree! But would add there is a dash of Gattaca too. – CBR14 Bingo: Minds

Warehouse Dreams by Theresa Halvorsen

July 28, 2022 by Dome'Loki Leave a Comment

CBR14 Bingo: “Minds” – Many of the characters in this book are telepathic and psychokinetic. I love visiting the small press and publisher areas at conventions.  At Wonder Con this past Spring, I had a conversation with author Theresa Halvorsen and she convinced me to buy her book Warehouse Dreams.  She described it as a bit X-Men, as it has genetically superpowered people, and a bit Harry Potter because it is set in a school for powered kids.  I would add there is a dose […]

The book, "City of Stone and Silence" by Django Wexler standing next to a book bingo card.

Two sisters, two different powers, trying to reunite against all odds- CBR14 Bingo: Monster

City of Stone and Silence: The Wells of Sorcery Book Two by Django Wexler

July 26, 2022 by Dome'Loki Leave a Comment

CBR14 Bingo: “Monster” – Tori begins a slippery slope of abusing her mental powers and starts self-describing as a monster. The first book in the Wells of Sorcery trilogy, Ship of Smoke and Steel, was exclusively from Isoka’s point of view.  City of Stone and Silence switches things up by alternating between Isoka and her younger sister Tori. Having survived the voyage aboard Soliton, Isoka faces new challenges.  All aboard the ship have been forced off of it by the angel enforcers onto a mysterious island.  The […]
