Book Review: I am Ace: Advice on Living Your Best Asexual Life by Cody Daigle-Orians

Hey all, Sam here. Well, everyone, it is Pride Month, and I am feeling the need to talk about that a bit. I have four books with a focus on Asexuality that I'm going to talk about this month, one for each Saturday. The reason why I am focused on this section of the LGBTQIAP+… Continue reading Book Review: I am Ace: Advice on Living Your Best Asexual Life by Cody Daigle-Orians

Tabletop Tuesday: Superfight

Hey all, Sam and David here today. While we would love to just talk about Pathfinder 2E some more, since we only discussed character creation last week, we want to spread the geeky love and appreciation around. That means not just talking about TTRPGs, but also talking about board games, card games, and dice games.… Continue reading Tabletop Tuesday: Superfight

Hey all, Sam here. It is Monday once again, and as per usual, we are starting the week with Manga Monday, the series on the blog where we talk about manga each week, typically with a review of a volume of manga...although there might be occasional anime chats or something coming in future.

Book Review: Nettle & Bone by T. Kingfisher

Hey all, Sam here. I need to get my blog schedule back under control. Too many days my posts go up hours after I'd like them to, and it's frustrating me. I have these plans to have the posts go up at a certain time, that is 3 pm Central Time, because that's pretty much… Continue reading Book Review: Nettle & Bone by T. Kingfisher

Tabletop Tuesday: Forbidden Island

Hey all, Sam and David here. It's Tax Day here in the US, so it feels right to focus on a game that will have you running off to an island...and then quickly trying to escape the island before you drown. Yeah, taxes were just that good this year (and yes, we're being sarcastic). But… Continue reading Tabletop Tuesday: Forbidden Island

Manga Monday: The Savior’s Book Cafe Story in Another World Vol 1 by Kyouka Izumi, Oumiya, and Reiko Sakurada

Hey all, Sam here. Today has been an absolute roller coaster of a day. I went from starting my day feeling pretty epic (this was just after midnight when I decided to do a quick writing session and charged over the finish line for my Camp NaNoWriMo goal), and then after I actually woke up… Continue reading Manga Monday: The Savior’s Book Cafe Story in Another World Vol 1 by Kyouka Izumi, Oumiya, and Reiko Sakurada

Graphic Novel Review: Animorphs #3: The Encounter by K.A. Applegate, Michael Grant, and Chris Grine

Hey all, Sam here. It's the first of April, but that doesn't mean that we're going to do some sort of joke post here on Free State of Geek. Well....at least not this year. A good joke or prank would require planning on our part, and we've been a bit busy recently. I guess this… Continue reading Graphic Novel Review: Animorphs #3: The Encounter by K.A.

Graphic Novel Review: Animorphs #2: The Visitor by K.A. Applegate, Michael Grant, and Chris Grine

Hey all, Sam here. So I think I'm about to have some bonus posts come up on the blog, because I am actually starting to get back into reading, and that means I have a bunch of books to talk about. Since I only currently post three book reviews a week, if I'm reading more… Continue reading Graphic Novel Review: Animorphs #2: The Visitor by K.A. Applegate, Michael Grant, and Chris Grine

Tabletop Tuesday: 1985 Games Dungeon Craft Tiles

Hey all, Sam and David here. First, let's just say that we are so very glad to be home, and glad to have our baby girl home too. She seems mostly okay, a little skittish, which is to be expected. And she has been spending a lot of time curled up on the couch with… Continue reading Tabletop Tuesday: 1985 Games Dungeon Craft Tiles

Graphic Novel Review: Animorphs #1: The Invasion by K.A. Applegate, Michael Grant, and Chris Grine

Hey all, Sam here. Fan Expo Cleveland is wrapping up now, and overall, I think it has been a pretty productive weekend. Oh, and I am pleased to announce that our cat Luna has returned home. She took shelter on our porch Friday night because it was starting to rain heavily, and a friend went… Continue reading Graphic Novel Review: Animorphs #1: The Invasion by K.A.
