Walk this way, so I can stab you in the head.

While I like them both, I prefer the Walking Dead show to the comics.  How about you?

What’s love got to do with it?

December 22, 2014 by Robyn Robotron Leave a Comment

None of those who gave Sleeping Beauty “true love’s kiss” ever stuck around.  You think that’s because it doesn’t mean what we think it does?

I’ve got a laser pointer, come out and PLAAAAAAAAAY!

My stepson was turned onto the Warriors series by a school friend.  The fact that I found this book mind-numbingly boring doesn’t take away from the awesomeness of that.

Nonchalantly haunting

December 18, 2014 by AamilTheCamel Leave a Comment

Thirty-ninth book reviewed as part of the 130 Challenge. We are floating through the cold indifference of the Universe with a death sentence dogging us around. Some of us ignore this fact and live life with the expectation that death, though a reality, is an incredibly distant one and we don’t really think much of it. On the other hand, there are those who get too concerned by this fact and spend their lives in mortal fear of being claimed by their end. The  there […]

December 17, 2014 by narfna 2 Comments

“There are so many people. It is easy to forget how full the world is of people, full to bursting, and each of them imaginable and consistently misimagined.” I’ve been sitting on this one for about a month and a half now, maybe longer, and I think I’m ready to admit something.

Next time, there will be no reviews of small children’s books from me.  Due to expecting a baby next summer, I’ll only be doing a half-cannonball.  That’s all I’ll be able to manage with a newborn and a 3-and-a-half-year-old.
