3 stars A good third book in the Magic Misfits series. I’ll admit this one didn’t quite hit the mark for me as well as the first two. Not sure if the series is losing some of its steam or if it was the listening format of the audiobook. This feels like a bridging point…

4 stars Bubblegum and Marceline are two of my favorite characters from the show. So when I saw there was a graphic novel about pirates stealing something from Princess Bubblegum’s chamber and her asking Marceline to retrieve it, I was all in.

One aspect I enjoyed about the book is that while Callie loves theater, she’s not much of a performer, preferring…

Loved the emphasis on being true to yourself and embracing who you are, even if that makes you stand out or is different from what people expect you to be. The artwork is stunning.

5 stars I’ll start out by saying I won an uncorrected proof of this book. The first few pages were in full color, the next few in grayscale, and the rest in black and white. However, I found myself completely engrossed in the story and characters that by the end I kind of forgot that…

4 stars I watching the movie over and over again as a child. It has been years since I last watched it, but from what I remember, the plot and dialogue of the book closely follow that of the movie. Lovely world-building. Some parts felt a bit rushed, but overall I enjoyed the level of…
