The Girl on the TrainThere has been a lot of hype around this book and had it not been for my wife reading this for her book club I might have passed it by. I don't usually read a book because of the hype, I really need to be invested in the plot. The idea... Continue Reading →
Sherlock Holmes and the Necronomicon by Sylvain Cordurie
Sherlock Homes and the NecronomiconI was fortunate enough to be chosen by Dark Horse comics and Edelweiss to read this for an honest review. I'm going to be honest and it pains me. This book is dry, I'm a big fan of Sherlock Holmes and no one writes a better story then Conan Doyle did... Continue Reading →
Finders Keepers by Stephen King
Finders KeepersWhen you think of Stephen King, most peoples first thought is of the Horror novels he writes. There are a ton of amazing novels that will scare the pants of you like IT, The Shining, and Salem's Lot. These are just a few of my favorites but something I have been pleasantly surprised by...

The Aeronaut's Windlass by Jim Butcher
Aeronaut's WindlassI really wanted to like this book. I tried and even re-read the beginning of this book three times because I was so lost with the point of what was going on with all of the characters that are introduced very quickly. I love Jim Butcher's Dresden Files and from what I have read... Continue Reading →
Green Lantern Vol 5: Test of Wills by Robert Venditti
Test of WillsI'm just going to say it. I miss Geoff Johns. The Green Lantern story has kind of petered out in the last few volumes. Nothing against Robert Venditti but I have been underwhelmed. The last book dealt with the end of the universe because the light energy that the rings us is finite... Continue Reading →
Batman Vol 7: Endgame by Scott Snyder
EndgameI finally got this book from the library and after all of the wait I found out I had already read this book. If you have read The Joker: Endgame then I will save you the time and tell you to skip it. If you haven't read The Joker: Endgame then I would suggest skipping that book... Continue Reading →
You're Never Weird on the Internet (Almost) by Felicia Day
Your're Never Weird on the Internet (Almost)I love Felicia Day, she is really funny and seems so down to earth. I love her story about how she went from a socially awkward child to a socially awkward internet gaming queen/celebrity. I am not one for non-fiction or memoirs but occasionally I find one that peaks... Continue Reading →
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J. K. Rowling
