I really liked keeping lists last year so I’m doing it again. Maybe I’ll be better at writing my comments this year. Probably not though.

    When the Mountain Fell

    Menor, Fabian
    This was really interesting. I don’t know the source material and maybe I would get more out of it if I did but it was still good.

  • Holy shit! This was terrifying and went unexpected places.
    Graphic Novel, 2024Seattle, WA : Fantagraphics Books, Inc., 2024.
  • This is great! I didn’t know where it was going to go but I liked it the whole way through. Love that it wrapped up after two volumes.

  • Graphic Novel, 2024New York : Balzer + Bray/HarperAlley, imprints of HarperCollins Publishers, [2024]
  • I liked these but it wasn’t my favourite. Maybe I just don’t really like hard boiled crime books. Noir, crime mystery but from the perspective of a son of Asian immigrants in the mid-1900’s.
    Book, 2021Portland, Or. : Image Comics, Inc., 2021.
  • This was really good. Straight forward story, good characters, surprising ending.

  • This was so great! Funny, quirky, quick and easy read. Totally different from I Hate This Place. Good stuff!
    Graphic Novel, 2024New York : First Second, 2024.
  • I read almost all of this but didn’t really like it. Some of it was good but it just didn’t click with me.

  • Still great! I’ll keep reading these.
    Graphic Novel, 2022New York, NY : Yen Press, 2022.
  • Out There Screaming

    An Anthology of New Black Horror

    I made it halfway through before I had to return this but the first half was really great! I didn’t like every story but that typical of an anthology like this. I’ll place it on hold and read the rest.
    Book, 2023New York : Random House, [2023]
  • I wanted to like this more but I just didn’t and I can’t figure out why. There were things about the story that I just didn’t like or didn’t make sense.

  • This was fun. I liked it.
