4 stars A fast-paced adventure filled with action, mystery, family, and friendship. The next generation of superheroes for new readers and lifelong fans.

4 stars An engaging and fast-paced adventure through the afterlife. This story has a little bit of everything. A shadowy villain, a trusty sidekick, a side romance, an unsure hero, and a fascinating look at the world of the dead. I wasn’t sure what to expect with this one but was pulled in from nearly…

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…

5 stars Beautiful. This work is absolutely amazing. Wonderful artwork, a piercing story, and thought-provoking characters. I was presently surprised with this piece considering I didn’t like the film adaptation very much. It did not do this book justice. This graphic novel is truly perfect. Goodreads

2 stars This is a tricky one to rate. It tells the story of Tom Token being accepted as the first black student at a historically white mage school, St. Ivory Academy. I personally enjoyed the word play involved. Tom has a crow named Jim and the higher-ups in the school like Headmaster Lynch walk…

3 stars Overall a good volume that continues Wirt and Greg’s search for the Hero Frog. My problem with this one is the same as the last: the bonus comics after the main ones are just not for me. In this volume, we’re given more tales from Ms. Langtree’s school. They are simple, nonsensical, and…

As with any compilation, there are some hits or misses, but overall it was a fun read. There is great diversity in the stories and expressions of the characters. Some stay true…

For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-Cycle Okay read. I will say that as an only child, it was kind of hard for me to relate to. Pretty much all I know about having siblings is what I’ve seen on TV and read in books. I’m sure those with siblings would find this more interesting….
