3,5/5. Lola and her lovely reading time with her family, this one with her dad, there's another one with her mom. Very casual love of reading for very young children. Well done without reinventing the wheel!
3,5/5. Lola and her lovely reading time with her family, this one with her mom, there's another one with her dad. Very casual love of reading for very young children. Well done without reinventing the wheel! The one with the dad was better so if you only have too pick one, I would pick the father one.
Very interesting twist/switch in time and storyline in this one. I didn't think it will go that fast and I was surprise by it while liking it a lot. Not sure if we're ever going back a little or not... This switch take a lot of new elements into the story, a lot of thinking about freedom, tons of new characters, even the style of the story telling felt a bit different, it's almost a brand new series, I'm pushing this one a little but really a different vibes to it. All of that might sound strange of scary to readers, because you like the first two volume and then bang! it happens. It could have failed in so many ways, crazy huge risk the author has taken here, but it works terribly well, congrats to him for achieving something like that and I'm just even more into it!
That was great! Feminist fairy tales! Very funny and good, it plays with the gender stereotypes and can be useful to talk about those with kids. Awesome book in today time, and even greater if we consider it was written 40 years ago!!
After having taken a bit of a sidetrack following another character/story line, we get back, or we get at, the junction where everything get back into the same track/story line. Very interesting, lot of action and stunning art! Awesome!
4,5/5. Lighter in the overall book, a bit too much, lot of new characters again, that universe is certainly becoming crowded. I was going for four stars, but the ending make it reach the extra rating. What a final chapter and ending!! Very promising for the next one! High level cliff-hanger!
Wow!! I always thought that Oregon should be an interesting place to go on vacation, but this book just bring it high up on my list! Stunning photography! Mostly all were from nature and landscape... it's Oregon. But seriously this look like there is so much good nature sight and hiking possibility! Great book if you like landscape picture!
Another cat lovers comic. This one has a higher level of drawing than those usually do. The art was colorful and well done, after that well it all depend on how much you like cat, the humor was okay, but that was really light and not really for me even if I still do believe it will please some reader.
2,5/5. Can't say I like this one. It goes in every direction and just can,t focus on its narrative at all. it's unfortunate because the main characters has some issues that could have made him very interesting and the author has a decent writing and some opinion, that agree or not, could again have offer material for a good book. I might read another book from him, because reading review I notice that some of his fan didn't like this book much, so maybe there is something more in his other ones, and I can see the potential, it's right there, but the plot, the narrative focus just failed, it almost look like a first draft in some way, lot of good, but just lot of everything too, it could have use some cleaning into this messy garden.

3,5/5. I'm not the biggest fan of flash fiction. I like short story, but flash ones are too short, not even time to pitch a concept or an idea, just a blink, a flash of a scene and you move on. So even if not a fan, I have to say that this particular anthology offer an amazing variety of fiction from an outstanding cast of authors, look at the list, this is quite impressive, so if you love flash fiction, or just want to have a small taste of some author and see which one you want to read more from, this might be a good place. And guest what, all the author are female so even the feminist should be please! (that's a joke please don't get offended!) (that's also a joke, second degree... might be better to stop right here.)
