5 stars A perfect book to snuggled up with and read aloud together. I love Brantz’s art style and this one adds another dimension with textural collage. The artwork was wonderful and really captured the essence of coziness. Learn how to create your own blanket cocoon, imagine the adventures you’ll have inside, and ponder what…

2 stars I’ve come to the conclusion this series just isn’t for me. When the Webtoon was getting a lot of hype, I gave it a try. Even a few episodes in, I just couldn’t get into the story. I was hoping it was just the episodic fashion and this would be alleviated in book…

3 stars A light-hearted gothic romance between a vampire and a werewolf told in similar slice-of-life style to Andersen’s Sarah’s Scribbles series.
