I mean...I'll never get enough of a whole graphic novel of longing sorry about it.

Fantastic anthology. Great blend of the horrors of real life mixing with the horrors that are dreamt up.

Four Aunties and a Wedding

Jesse Q. Sutanto

2.0

This was just somehow really missing the magic of the first book AND every character annoyed me the whole time except maybe the aunties I can't be too mad at them.

Another banger from one of my faves. I honestly don't know if I can even judge properly at this point cause I just love his writing. I had a great time. The puppetry was exceptionally unsettling.

Very very cute Christmas romance with exceptionally loveable characters falling in love in a more diverse stars hollow type town. The spicy scenes are well done and while I found a couple logistical pieces a little confusing, the superb flirting more than made up for it.

Have you ever wanted a whodunit but with the addition of a real medium? This was really cute actually, lots of likeable characters. A ghost and her living best friend work to solve a murder. Very fast read and enjoyable dialogue. A great Fall read.
