Archive for December, 2016
Tis the season!
There’s nothing noteworthy about my December other than I’m exhausted from working and I’m utterly devastated by the many deaths this past month (Carrie Fisher + Debbie Reynolds + George Michaels <3)
At the end of the year, the End of the Year Book Survey (by Jamie @ The Perpetual Page-Turner) pops up onto my feed, and it always gets me giddy to do it.
There’s gonna be some repeats because most of the books I read weren’t as memorable as I like them to be.

(Not completely accurate since I forgot to count a lot of books I’ve reread nor did I count all the individual comic issues I’ve read.)
I love comics and graphic novels, so what do I do with that love? Well, I turn it into a new feature!
From Panel to Panel is a new feature where I talk about the awesome (and perhaps not-so awesome) comic books and graphic novels I’ve read. Basically, this will be me pushing them onto your laps. You’re welcome.
Santa, I hope you brought these comics for me. (I know it’s after Christmas, but y’know, gotta keep hoping.) You get graphic novels about Archie (with a fabulous new artist); Poe Dameron, former Republic flyer turned Resistance fighter; Patsy Walker kicking ass as Hellcat; and Gwen Stacy trying to live a civilian life.
Get your shopping carts loaded with all these comics!

Why I’m excited: Aside from seeing the modernization of Archie, I’m so excited for Veronica Fish’s art. It’s frickin’ fabulous. I dare you not to heart eyes over her work when you look at it. (Just take a look at her work!)

Dear Roshani Chokshi & A Crown of Wishes,
Reaching the tournament is just the beginning. Once they arrive, danger takes on new shapes: poisonous courtesans and mischievous story birds, a feast of fears and twisted fairy revels.
Every which way they turn new trials will test their wit and strength. But what Gauri and Vikram will soon discover is that there’s nothing more dangerous than what they most desire.Goodreads
