3 stars Nice book that applies a variety of emotions to different Star Wars characters. I liked the scope of the book. It includes references to the original Star Wars series as well as the newer movies. It was really cool to see all of those characters in one book.  There was also a great…

3 stars Overall, a good story. I have not seen the movie this book was based on, but from what I can tell, this is a simplified version of the movie.  I think this book is meant to be read after having seen the movie. It goes through the origin of Super Sparkle. At the…

5 stars This book was perfect. I’ll admit, it took me longer than usual to finish this one. Part of that was that I often have a few minutes to read here and there during my workday. I tried reading it then, but didn’t get very far and kept forgetting what was going on and…

2 stars Overall, an alright read. I picked this up from the clearance section because I like zombies and I like poetry. Figured it would be good for a quick read. Part of the problem with this book was that it wasn’t really a good fit for me. It was a little gory for my…

4 stars Honestly, I liked this one more than The House with a Clock in its Walls. The style was very similar but I think the ending worked better in this one. My big problem with the first one was that there was the huge, ginormous, world-changing problem that was solved so quickly. It felt so…

3 stars This one is kind of tricky for me to review. There were things I really liked and things I wasn’t such a fan of. Overall, I think the book was good. I recently read The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, Vol. 1: Squirrel Power and loved it because it was super duper awesome. I fell in love…

3 stars Cute, but also weird. I liked the idea of the Color Monster. At the beginning, his emotions are all mixed up and he doesn’t know how he feels. Throughout the book, a little girl (who looks remarkably angry at the beginning when she tells him he’s all mixed up- seriously, chill out, kid)…

3 stars Overall, this was an interesting read. The story itself is very simple. Multiple dinosaurs compare themselves on their prehistorical playground of sorts. The thing that really carried this book was the artwork. I loved the elegant style of it. The author’s bio reveals it is made “by layering traditional Korean paper in various…

4 stars This is an adorable book. I really enjoyed the story. From the very first page, I wanted to know what was in the castle. This book really pulls you in. I also enjoyed the artwork. Loved the muted, watery coloring.  Ibb is a character that you immediately like. She is kind, curious, brave,…
