My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Season 10, Vol. 2 by Jeremy Whitley

by Leave a Comment

As a reader, especially one that specializes in children’s and young adult reads, I like to think I mix my genres up, or at least my subjects. I know I have been on a graphic novel kick for several years now, but they come in all shapes and sizes and subjects so I can find almost anything I am in the mood for. And ages ago I found a My Little Pony (contemporary) collection of several stories. It was My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic […]

Taverns have ale flowing, wenches are wenching and pirates pirating.

Sea of Thieves: Origins: Champion of Souls by Jeremy Whitley

I started with Sea of Thieves: Sea Dog’s Search illustrated by Rhoald Marcellius. Though it says it has issues one to three, it was actually after the no added title, Sea of Thieves. We meet our main pirate twins, their friends, frenemies and a possible lover or two or three…. Here we build up the story of all the characters we find in the second book (or the main ones) and we learn about a few creatures and events. However, you needed Sea of Thieves: […]

Shiver me timbers and all that good stuff

Sea of Thieves: Sea Dog's Search by Jeremy Whitley

Sea of Thieves: Sea Dog’s Search by Jeremy Whitley and illustrated by Rhoald Marcellius is more of a 2.5 than a 2. That is not to say this graphic novel is not good, in fact, it is a lot of fun. But nothing “grabbed” me into saying “Best book.” We know the stories of female pirates proving themselves to their families and self, and the illustrations are in a traditional comic format. However, if I had known about the podcasts, shows, and the other items […]

The Dog Knight by Jeremy Whitley

by Leave a Comment

Once upon a time I heard of a book called The Dog Knight by Jeremy Whitley. At first I did not realize it was to be the first book in a series, but later I saw Volume one after the words The Dog Knight. And I should have realized that it was a series as it ends on an open but also “end of this chapter of the story” note. The author is that of the graphic novel series School for Extraterrestrial Girls. I was […]

School for Extraterrestrial Girls Vol. 2: Girls Take Flight  by Jeremy Whitley

by Leave a Comment

I am giving School for Extraterrestrial Girls Vol. 2: Girls Take Flight by Jeremy Whitley a 3.5 as I need the rest of the series (and there were some story flow issues that I had). This is a series where I need everything it has all at once. I can handle it! This nickel and diming Tara and her friends story is going to make me spontaneous combust! Like Tara does one day in class.   That part of the story is from book one, where we learn that Tara is […]

You know I have volumes two and three on order!

CBR15Passport Books I own (had since mid-2022) I was not totally into My Little Ponies toys and cartoons as a kid, but I had my share and watched the shows/movies. As an adult, I have gotten back into them as my nephew (in his wonderful oddness of finding things that appeal to his sense of the world) has found them (he likes the music and colors mostly) and we have something we can share (though I am learning a lot about Frozen, superheroes and Five […]
