Breaking The Dark by Lisa Jewell

December 19, 2024 by finnyfinfinn Leave a Comment

This is apparently the first in a series of Marvel adult crime thrillers. I was just glad to spend some time picturing Krysten Ritter as Jessica Jones again. Bring her back Marvel! In true Jessica Jones fashion, our friend is not doing so great. She spends her days fighting a killer hangover and solving crimes in New York City, One morning a wealthy mother comes to her door asking for Jessica’s help. She’s convinced something strange happened to her teenage twins when they were visiting […]

Actress, knitter, author. Is there anything she can’t do?

February 1, 2018 by scootsa1000 8 Comments

I’m a big fan of Krysten Ritter. I love her as Jessica Jones. She was a fun addition to Veronica Mars. She killed it as the B in Apartment 23. And she broke my heart on Breaking Bad. And now, she’s written her first novel **, a mysterious thriller that proves she’s an author to look out for in the future. Bonfire tells the story of Abby, a tough environmental lawyer at a big Chicago firm, who is sent to the small (AND TERRIBLE) town […]

Still No Idea What Is Going On

February 3, 2017 by Classic Leave a Comment

Please note that I gave this 3.5 stars and rounded it up to 4 stars here.  I think I may just wait after I finish the third comic for a full volume to be put together. There are still too many unanswered questions for me to be able to even figure out why there is a schism between Jessica Jones, the Avengers, and Luke Cage. This comic focuses more on Jessica and Luke though which I appreciated. We get some flashbacks to Jessica giving birth, […]

I’ve Got Ramen Noodles Coming Out My Nose: Jessica Jones on the Page

February 7, 2016 by silverdahler Leave a Comment

My husband picked up the first volume of Jessica Jones because we had watched the Netflix show and enjoyed it greatly (aside from me having Kilgrave nightmares, but I guess that just means I was invested, right?). If you’re moving from show to comics, there are substantial differences between this first book and the world of the show—without spoiling anything, her relationship with Luke Cage is different, Malcolm is very different, Carol Danvers is Trish (to some extent), Kilgrave is nowhere to be found (for […]
