Zero Year- Secret CityBatman is my all-time favorite superhero and Scott Snyder has done an absolutely amazing job writing the story line since the New 52. I have loved every one of the volumes he has written. He is quickly becoming one of my favorite comic writers up there with Geoff Johns who has written... Continue Reading →
Batgirl Vol 4:WantedI have really been meaning to read Batgirl since New 52 started for the single reason that Barbara Gordon is back. She has always been one of my favorite characters and I loved her as Oracle when she was paralyzed from the waist down. Not going to lie, I also used to like... Continue Reading →
Death of a KingI never thought I would say this but Aquaman is Badass!!! Geoff Johns does an amazing job of making a character who was made fun of by other comic book heroes cool. I was never a fan of Aquaman before the New 52, but now I look forward to the new volumes... Continue Reading →
Trouble in MindWhat could be better than one of Deaver’s amazing stories? How about a collection of twelve amazing stories; I love his short story collections almost as much as his novels. With this collection I get a bunch of different stories with Deaver’s classic twists and misdirection all in one great book. I really... Continue Reading →

Batman/Superman Vol 1: Cross WorldBatman has been my all-time favorite Superhero since before I could read, and Superman has been a close second. I really enjoy the friendship that seems to always be in these stories no matter how many times DC reboots their series. Of course Batman feels like he has to have a backup... Continue Reading →
Night of the Soul StealerQuestions answered and Secrets revealed; well sort of. There has been very little said about the Spook in the first two books, but in this one we finally get some answers to the questions that have been on my mind since the very begining. I really liked this book, mostly for... Continue Reading →
It's that time again and I am excited to be able to participate in this round of Bout of Books. I have had my slumps this year because I am so busy with my two jobs, but this is a great oportunity to catch up. At one of my jobs I am allowed to listen to music... Continue Reading →
The Fifth WitnessThe next book in my attempt to catch up on all of the Connelly books I have missed is The Fifth Witness. This book is a Mickey Haller story and as much as I like Connelly, I wasn’t as impressed with this one. Maybe it was because I loved The Reversal and I kept comparing... Continue Reading →
