I collect Funko Pops. I've always been a big collector so no surprise there. A few of them have gotten into some of the photos I've shared, and I'd be happy to show off more if anyone is interested. Last year, as I finished off Martha Wells's Murderbot Diaries novellas, I thought to myself how …

2020 Book Bingo: Bingo #1 Reviews
Technically this is my second update on my book bingo, but this is the first time I got a bingo on my card. I think this line got done first just because I never ended up reading any novels on it. I filled this line with two graphic novels, two novelettes, a novella and a …
Book Bingo Progress 1
I've completed two challenges on my Book Bingo card, and thought that makes a good excuse for some reviews. What was interesting about both these books is that they've been on my To Read list for a while, but I didn't anticipate that they'd tick off challenges until I started. Get ready for reviews of …
My 2019 Book Bingo Challenge. Or, What Happened to You?
I haven’t really been posting much. A few technical issues with my blog started the slowdown, but they weren’t the main issue. Whilst I like writing the reviews, it makes reading feel like a job. Not only that, but writing reviews cut into the time I had to write stories. Being consistent with my writing …

Novellas, Novelettes, and Short Stories of the 2019 Hugo Awards
Voting for this year’s Hugo’s have closed and on the 18th August we'll know this year’s winners. Or the 19th if you're in my time zone. I have binged the short stories and novelettes recently, and decided now would be a good time to finally talk about the shorter fiction. First I’m going to touch …

Ever wonder what this year’s Hugo nominees would look like if they were Pokémon? Of course not, but I do, because Pokémon is life. Yup, it’s that time again; my Hugo Nominee 2019 Pokemon theme team is ready. For those who have no idea what I’m talking about, I explained everything two years ago, right …

April 2019 Reviews
This is going to be a short one, since a lot of the books I read last month are for the Hugo Awards and I’ll talk about them later. Also, this will probably be my last monthly review post. I don’t think this format is working; it’s encouraging me to review almost everything I read, …
February/March Reviews
Well, I've been busy, but I still read a lot of awesome books. With two months in one go, this is going to be a long post, so strap in and let's get right into it. Eifelheim By Michael Flynn Narrated by Anthony Heard Published January 2006 (Blackstone Audio) Score: 8/10 Book Bingo Tiles: Title …
No February Reviews (Yet?)
So, I'm going over to Japan in a few days. Now whilst I've been busy preparing for my holiday it was always my intention to have my February reviews up before I left. However, there has been a death in the family that has sapped both my time, and my will to be productive, so …
Saga
Saga By Brian K. Vaughn (Writer) and Fiona Staples (Illustrator) Published: 2012 – ongoing. I have just become caught up on this series. I started reading Saga last year, but didn’t want to talk about it until I was up-to-date. Well, now I’ve just finished Vol.9 and I’m not sure if I’m okay. This series …
