4 stars I spotted this book at the library (look at me reducing the number of materials produced) and it looked right up my alley. While not necessarily making an effort to go zero waste, I was really interested in learning ways that I could use less. This books provided that. Overall, it was very…

3 stars A few weeks ago, I went to an author talk/reading featuring Landis Blair with Caitlin Doughty. Of course, after hearing the reading, I had to check out the rest of the stories in the book. This book is a gorgeously morbid, gruesomely strange, and overall a good read. It’s not my normal style of reading and…

3 stars I am currently pursuing an MLIS degree and am writing a paper on gender stereotypes and librarians for one of my classes. This book looked perfect for a little light research so I got a copy from the library (of course). Overall, this book was well-written. It is very casual, which makes for…

2 stars This book started off with a really promising idea. There was enough weird stuff going on that I was pretty interested in how things would turn out. The book does get pretty repetitive with many supposedly suspenseful moments turning out to be nothing at all (how many times are you going to get…

3 stars As I’ve said in other reviews, I was a pretty fearful child so Goosebumps books were not my jam. This is the third one I’ve read as an adult and it’s the first one I picked that didn’t turn out to be more sad that scary (Hide and Shriek, Phantom of the Auditorium– I…

3 stars I never really got into Goosebumps books when I was a kid. I was pretty much afraid of everything so it was probably for the best. Now that I’m an adult and slightly less fearful, I give these books a quick read when I stumble across them to see what I missed out…

4 stars I loved this book. A great read for cat-lovers, both children and adults. “The only thing a cat worries about is what’s happening right now. As we tell the kittens, you can only wash one paw at a time.” Honestly, I don’t think I have ever read such an accurate description of the…

3 stars Cute collection overall. This graphic novel contains multiple stories centering around Grumpy Cat and Pokey with a variety of cartoon-y artwork. Overall, it was a good read. The stories cover a good range, from mysteries to time travel to superheroes to aliens and ghosts. There’s a little bit of everything. And to tie…

4 stars This is a pretty great graphic novel. If you want more Rick and Morty, this is a good place for just that. Don’t expect it to be exactly like the show, but it is still pretty awesome. One of the things that makes me have a love-hate relationship with the show is its…
