Nightwing 150

This issue wasn’t bad, but it had potential to be more. It was good to see a writer remember that Harvey is still in there somewhere. Most writers just have Two-Face and the coin flip is nothing more than a formality. Here we actually do see …

Devil’s Rejects Comic Book

Rob Zombie’s film, The Devil’s Rejects was one of the most stunning horror films of the last twenty years. This comic book tie-in, also written by Zombie, is pretty forgettable and totally underwhelming for fans of the film.

My Sister’s Keeper by Jodi Picoult book

While this book …

The Office of Desire by Martha Moody

I did not even finish reading the book, The Office of Desire by Martha Moody. The book has lots of potential, could have been better, but it just lurked at nothingness, really. I stopped at the 150 or so pages. The book has around 300 over pages. …

Stay Mad for Life

This book title, Stay Mad for Life has really a long link to it. And on the front page itself, the continuation title is: Get Rich, Stay Rich (Make Your Kids Even Richer). Can you imagine the title? Very long indeed and makes me wonder can …

New Moon by Stephanie Meyer

The Bright Side by Alex Coleman

Scion of Ikshvaku is the first book of another series by Amish. It …

The Five Percent People by Lucy Taylor

Equal Rites by Terry Pratchett

I found this book to be quite funny. While it did not contain my favourite Discworld characters, (Commander Vimes and the Watch, Death), it had witches and wizards galore.
