A fitting end, even if I’m not happy about it. At all. Except for I’m happy with most of it except for that one part that was AWFUL AND HORRIBLE AND I HATE IT. And the rest of it was great, but I’m bitter. In case you can’t tell, I’m a little too emotional to give this a proper review. I have no idea what I’m about to type. First things first: until THAT THING happened, this was hands down my favorite book in the […]
There is a dog in this named ‘Achoo Curlypaws.’ It’s farking adorable.
I suppose it was sort of inevitable that I wouldn’t like this one as much as I enjoyed Terrier, but I felt Bloodhound (the second book in Pierce’s Beka Cooper trilogy) had some structural and pacing issues that hampered my enjoyment. Bloodhound picks up a year and a half after the events of the last book. Beka has been an official Dog now for almost a year, but she can’t keep a partner. They’re either incompetent or can’t keep up with her. And then she gets saddled with […]

Why would someone cast a man who can only play someone who knows nothing as a man who knows too much? Let’s not even get into his […]
My favorite Tamora Pierce book (so far).
Well, that was a ridiculously quick 582 pages. I expected to take at least three to four days to get through it, but as soon I started, I just couldn’t seem to stop reading. I think I finished it in a little over a day. Terrier is the first in Tamora Pierce’s latest young adult series, Beka Cooper (sometimes also known as Provost’s Dog). It takes place about 200 years before Alanna: The First Adventure (which was Pierce’s first book, and the first of The […]
There’s a monster in the woods that tears people’s hearts out
Rowan Rose lives in the little village of Nag’s End with her father. Like her father, an experienced scholar, Rowan enjoys assisting him with translations and is proud of her achievements. Five soldiers ride through the village on their way up the mountain, and some days later, are found horribly killed by the men of the village. In a journal left by one of the soldiers are the words: “It’s starting.”. The elders of Nag’s End declare the deaths the result of an animal attack, but not […]
I am the Walrus.
You have no frame of reference here, Robyn. You’re like a child who wanders into the middle of a movie and wants to know. . .
