Personal rating of 5 out of 5 stars
5 stars I love reading Tysoe’s comics on Webtoon and Instagram so I was super pumped when I saw she’d put together a book collection. While I would have been perfectly content with a bound collection of her comics, Tysoe blew me away by creating a little frame story about her younger self time traveling…

5 stars Damn. Another excellently-crafted work from West. I am so thankful Lindy West is on this planet. She has such a way of cutting through all the B.S. to call out what is wrong, doing so in a way that is humorous and entertaining without taking away from her message. Pulling from pop culture,…

5 stars In this mammoth of a book, Randall Munroe proves that with enough math, everything eventually explodes. A hilarious, entertaining, interesting, and fascinating read exploring oddly specific questions you never thought to ask. The book blends mathematics, science, and history to create an extraordinary journey (with plenty of things blowing up along the way)….

5 stars What an absolutely gorgeous book! I love the Hilda graphic novels, the Netflix adaptation, and the tie-in novels, so when I saw there was a Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them-style book of creatures, I was all in. This book did not disappoint. The illustrations are phenomenal. I really enjoyed the aesthetic. My…

5 stars Another adorable collection of Catana Comics! This series is so cute, heartfelt, and relatable. Covering topics such as morning routines, a deep love of food, getting in each other’s way, and just being your own weirdo self, this is such a sweet book. As with the first collection, there were so many times…

5 stars Absolutely adorable! I lost count of the number of times I went to my husband with a comic from this book with exclamations of “This one is us”, “We do this all the time”, and “See? It’s not weird I do that. Other people do it too!” This little book is so full…

5 stars Another absolutely gorgeous book in the Amulet series! I love the artwork of these books so much. It’s so easy to just get lost in the worlds Kibuishi has created. Despite my best efforts, I flew through this book. So much happens and it was all amazing. The whole storyline on Algos Island…

5 stars An excellent read filled with remarkable women. Engaging, inspiring, and beautiful in its presentation. One thing I really enjoyed about this book was the range of sciences included. Aviation, nutrition, psychology, entomology, neurosurgery, and engineering are just a few of the many types of STEM fields discussed in this book. It was also…

5 stars Another gorgeous book in the Tea Dragon series. I cannot get enough of this world. The characters could just sit with their tea dragons, talking to each other and sipping tea and I would be here for it 100%. As always, O’Neill’s artwork is fantastic. Each page is gorgeous and relaxed. Beautiful colors,…

5 stars Another awesome adventure at Dunwiddle Magic School. While this is the third book in the series, there is enough backtracking and explanation of what happened in the previous books that it could be read alone. However, the first two books are just as engaging and fun so I’d still recommend reading them first…
