Personal rating of 5 out of 5 stars
5 stars Another adorable collection of Catana Comics! This series is so cute, heartfelt, and relatable. Covering topics such as morning routines, a deep love of food, getting in each other’s way, and just being your own weirdo self, this is such a sweet book. As with the first collection, there were so many times…

5 stars Absolutely adorable! I lost count of the number of times I went to my husband with a comic from this book with exclamations of “This one is us”, “We do this all the time”, and “See? It’s not weird I do that. Other people do it too!” This little book is so full…

5 stars Another absolutely gorgeous book in the Amulet series! I love the artwork of these books so much. It’s so easy to just get lost in the worlds Kibuishi has created. Despite my best efforts, I flew through this book. So much happens and it was all amazing. The whole storyline on Algos Island…

5 stars An excellent read filled with remarkable women. Engaging, inspiring, and beautiful in its presentation. One thing I really enjoyed about this book was the range of sciences included. Aviation, nutrition, psychology, entomology, neurosurgery, and engineering are just a few of the many types of STEM fields discussed in this book. It was also…

5 stars Another gorgeous book in the Tea Dragon series. I cannot get enough of this world. The characters could just sit with their tea dragons, talking to each other and sipping tea and I would be here for it 100%. As always, O’Neill’s artwork is fantastic. Each page is gorgeous and relaxed. Beautiful colors,…

5 stars Another awesome adventure at Dunwiddle Magic School. While this is the third book in the series, there is enough backtracking and explanation of what happened in the previous books that it could be read alone. However, the first two books are just as engaging and fun so I’d still recommend reading them first…

5 stars Another fantastic story in the Upside-Down Magic series. Wonderful themes and messages around inclusion and acceptance of the ways people are different from one another. This one deals with a lot of heavy topics including bullying, divorce, depression, and stress. Such topics are handled well, allowing the characters to understand and learn from…

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…

5 stars What an amazing, unique, unexpected, splendid book. This was jaw-droppingly good and I did not want to put it down. I’ll admit, as an animal-lover I was a little squeamish when first introduced to the roadkill witch. But Leyh does such an amazing job of creating characters that you will gladly welcome into…
