Books 9 & 10. Two funny and relaxing little reads with some great #bookblanket color opportunities.
My squares are a bit crooked and wonky, but I‘m hoping that this year long project will help me improve my crocheting.
Plus , that 💩 will block right out. 😹😹😹

My reading has taken a back seat since Christmas. Extended the kitchen and now have a spare dining room which I‘ve been decorating when not working. This will now be a reading room so it‘s all gonna work out good in the end. I picked up this, weird but interesting GN…a quick read, just so my account didn‘t look dead. Although I did try and catch up on reviews once in a while. Oh, I also joined a gym. My arms are so huge now I can barely turn pages

I've read a couple Criminal stories here and there, but this will be my first proper read through, in anticipation of the upcoming TV series. Leo has a reputation of being an expert thief, but the first to hit the bricks at a sign of trouble. When someone from his past reemerges, he takes a job he knows he shouldn't, and, predictably, it doesn't go well, but modern master Brubaker keeps things interesting.

Finished this Metal Earth AT-ST model while listening to the Batman Returns novelization. Pretty disappointing. The narrator was all over the place with his voices, Max Shreck being particularly rough. There was a lot more misogyny from the Penguin in this adaptation, which was weird. Stick with the movie.

Charlie and Nick are out at school, and the next steps are deciding when to come out to Nick‘s dad and how to have the courage to say I love you. But this installment also deals with Charlie getting help for some significant mental health issues while Nick learns how to best support him. It is wonderful how Oseman shows teens navigating this with sensitivity and care. And also how the boys‘ friends and families are crucial in the process.

The promising title got me to pick this book without a second thought and it started out great. What seemed like a fun and quirky book turned out to be repetitive, boring and disappointing though. The illustrations are good and the comic style of writing was great but the content itself seemed nothing new. It‘s all the things that readers and writers do and I found myself skimming through it.

18/100 I'm not sure what possesses me to read this, it's not my usual kind of material. Graphically violent and bloody, it's the story of the men of the Rath family. From father to son, they passed down their legacy of violence and death, until there were none left. I've seen Ron Garney's art on Captain American & Thor, but this was much grittier, verging on Frank Miller's style on Sin City. 3 ⭐⭐⭐💫
