Manga Monday: One Piece, Vol 2 by Eiichiro Oda

Hey all, Sam here. There's always this sense of exhaustion after coming home from attending a convention. Exhaustion mixed with exhilaration. Sometimes it makes it difficult to swing back into the normal work/life schedule. Thankfully, having dedicated series of posts on this blog means we don't have to wonder what we'll post as we try… Continue reading Manga Monday: One Piece, Vol 2 by Eiichiro Oda

NetGalley Review: Empire of Exiles by Erin M Evans

Hey all, Sam here. It's the final day of Gen Con, and I think today is going to be a little more chill. I decided not to go to my Sunday panel, because it was technically one I went to last year, and all I had planned to do was to see if new advice… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Empire of Exiles by Erin M Evans

Hey all, Sam here. All right. I'm at Gen Con and it's been a lot of fun, and the panels at the Writer's Symposium have been excellent this year, and it's definitely gotten me very focused on books.

Hey all, Sam here. Welcome to me talking about the best book I've read so far in 2023. Yes, that is how I am starting this post.

Manga Review: One Piece Vol 1 by Eiichiro Oda

Hey all, Sam here. I finally took the plunge into One Piece. David talks about it all the time (much like he does with Dragon Ball Z and Naruto), and I had originally decided that reading the manga would be the faster and easier way for me to catch up with the series...but with the… Continue reading Manga Review: One Piece Vol 1 by Eiichiro Oda

NetGalley Review: The Valkyrie’s Shadow by Tiana Warner

Hey all, Sam here. It is getting hot out there. So, where I live in the US is under a heat advisory, with daily temps ending up in the triple digits (or technically the upper limit of double digits while feeling like the triple digits). We're in the kind of days that make you want… Continue reading NetGalley Review: The Valkyrie’s Shadow by Tiana Warner
