You Wish #2 Wishborn – Graphic Novel Review

Arden Skye10 months ago11 months ago02 mins

Sequel to You Wish #1. The beginning was rather disappointing. If anyone had told me, while reading volume 1, that that’s how volume 2 starts, I’d not have believed it. I mean, it’s a valid reason to act that way, kinda, but still seemed pretty out of character for Gribblet. And so cliche.  I did…

Book Guild – June 2025 Challenge

Since #QueerPride is in June, I’m sure you’re already expecting the theme. However, it’d be boring to have the same prompt every year, so the additional prompt is …

Long Cold Winter – Graphic Novel #1 Review

Arden Skye10 months ago11 months ago03 mins

It’s incredibly fast-paced, a bit too much in my opinion. Felt like I was reading 4 novels cramped into one, instead of 4 comic issues.

Spacewalking with You – Manga #1 Review

Tiny Pasture – Gaming Review

ivetafox10 months ago11 months ago03 mins

Tiny Pasture is an idle pet farming sim that runs at the bottom of the desktop screen while you’re doing other tasks. The pets have sprite animations which run around and nap. It looked cute, so I gave it a whirl and I am now addicted. #SendHelp Look, objectively it’s not a great game. The…

A Study in Black Brew by Marie Howalt

ivetafox10 months ago12 months ago03 mins

Release date: 22nd May 2025 A cross between Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Who, this sci-fi murder mystery is the most bizarre book I have ever read (and that might be a compliment). If you’ve read ‘A Study in Scarlet’ then you already know the plot. However, this retelling is set in space! Our protagonist, Kellieth,…

The front cover of "YOU WISH", volume 1 on the right. Avery, a tomboy girl with brown hair, blue trousers and a black shirt with a cute burger face on it, is seen standing in a black rocky cave. She's holding an American oil lamp, which shines the light for her. She looks determined. Next to her on the right is sitting a cute dog-like being with a red mask all over his body. He has yellow eyes and is looking cutely to the reader. Dimly in the background, a monochromatic figure can be seen – a genie with a large body and small head, an earring on an ear, is angrily looking down on Avery. Text reads: ""A WHIMSICAL NEW TWIST ON THE GENIE LEGEND! THIS BOOK IS GORGEOUS!" -JEFF SMITH, AUTHOR OF BONE. YOU WISH by Jeff Victor." Left page shows the back cover. Avery and the red genie assistant can be seen hovering in air. While Avery is restless and hoping the red being won't drop her, he just smiles and looks away, tightly holding her. Background is a deep red mist. Text reads: "What if you found a genie's magic lamp, and rubbed it only to discover that You were the genie? "Magical, charming, gorgeous, funny and heartfelt! Jeff Victor's You Wish is the kind of graphic novel I wholeheartedly wish I had growing up. Aside from the glorious art, get lost in a fully realized world full of magical characters and charming lore. You will wish it would never end!" – Jorge Gutierrez, Director of The Book of Life and Maya and the Three." TopShelf PRODUCTIONS $14.99 US | $19.99 CAN ISBN-13: 978-1-60309-532-7 51499 9781603 095327 TOPSHELFCOMIX.COM

Murderous Lewellyn’s Candlelit Dinner, Vol 1

ivetafox11 months ago12 months ago02 mins

This manga is strange. Billed as a thriller but more of a slow burn romance, a man finds out his neighbour is a murderer. Through a mixture of fear and poverty, the writer Shavonne continues to go on dates with Lewellyn. Pretty much exactly what the title suggests. I have a real problem writing this…
