All I can say this was an interesting book about Alexander the Great. It is clearly well thought out and research.

I had to read 1984 for class, but I feel like in our political climate it is important to reread this and watch out for the warning signs.

The Great Gatsby is such a memorable literary classic, i’m glad I had a chance to reread it again for class.

I am surprised that I enjoyed A Toast to Twenty-three. I accidentally bought the ebook and decided to commit to reading to get my money's worth. I really like the premise and the characters. I also like how the Victorian setting went well with the omegaverse trope.

This is one of the best graphic novels that I've read in a while. The mystery is fresh, and Samantha Strong is such a great protagonist. The anthro character leads the reader into a false sense of security until the first on-page murder happens. It can be gory, but it is tasteful enough that hopefully doesn't deter readers from finishing the novel. I recommend this to anyone who loves the vibe of a cozy mystery and can handle some gore!

This book is a very light guide for those who are unfamiliar with the omega verse as a whole, and it also includes the history of omega verse in fandom and a few case studies in human behaviors. I definitely recommend this if you want a short unofficial guide of the genre if you are interested in writing it yourself or are simply curious.
