A fun read! Not as fun as the first one, the late 90’s references were an enjoyable
throwback. It looks like the series won’t be continuing which is a huge bummer, I wish the story and characters had more time to progress.

This was a fun ride! Art style is so fun, characters are we fleshes out, and great diversity as well! Since it was so short it did move SO fast and the climax happened super abruptly, but I guess I’ll just have to read the next one!

This was incredible, like, unexpectedly so. I didn't think I would like the main character at first, but the art style and narrative managed to keep me hooked. The plot gets... strange at certain parts, and takes away from the story at times, BUT, I was entertained throughout. I don't think I've ever read anything like this.

An adorably quick graphic novel with cats, death, and romance! The plot moved unbelievably quick to the point I felt like I couldn’t catch my breath, but the gorgeous art kept my hooked. Excited to read the second volume!

Another amazing book by the Seattle Walk Report! This is truly a love letter to Seattle, and all it's fascinating history. I'm going to go on a walk now.

This was ??? Too short? The characters seemed interesting, the
sexual content
seemed unnecessary, this felt more like a trailer for a graphic novel.

This was just…. excellent from start to finish. Probably my favorite volume I the series. I liked that there was an actual conflict, with an emotional resolution! I will always pick up a new volume of this series.

Wow!! One of the best short story collections I’ve read. Although all the stories are connected by threads… I really enjoyed piecing the stories together. The backdrop of small towns really drew me to the stories, and I’ll be thinking about this book for some time!

Immune: A Journey Into the Mysterious System That Keeps You Alive

Philipp Dettmer

DID NOT FINISH: 38%

This is a greatly great book for the right person! I thought the subject matter was fascinating, at that the author did a great job digging into the subject matter in more easily digestible phrasing. But, even with the humor I wasn’t hooked. Def recommend for science buffs though!
