77. Warrior Princess Assassin by Brigid Kemmerer
📖
⭐️⭐️⭐️

The plot really meanders and the character development is all over the place but I unfortunately will be reading the second book because I see a glimmer of a good story here

76. The Executioners Three by Susan Dennard
🎧
⭐️⭐️.5

I fell victim to a pretty cover and was then subjected to horrible 90s references and the horniest teenagers ever

75. Batman by Paul Dini omnibus
📖
⭐️⭐️⭐️

I picked this up because I NEEDED to see more Hush and it was overkill lol. The best issues from this are the heart of hush and house of hush runs - the other issues were fun but I did not need to get this 1000pg book 😂

74. Bride by Ali Hazelwood
🎧
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Yes I finally read this and it was really fun. I have the same issue as love on the brain through where there is very sudden plot which is very mustache twirly and resolved just as suddenly but I still enjoyed it

Wrong. nosferatu is a Christmas movie
A MOVIE THAT TAKES PLACE ON CHRISTMAS IS NOT A CHRISTMAS MOVIE. IT NEEDS TO BE ABOUT CHRISTMAS

73. Legacy of Vader # 11 by Charles Soule
📖
⭐️⭐️.5

Listen I’m very intrigued by this one specific panel and the cliffhanger but Charles is still proving to be my opp

72. Don’t Let the Forest in by CG Drews

This is without a doubt the best book I have read all year and it absolutely tore me to PIECES

71. A Place for Vanishing by Ann Fraistat
🎧
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Definitely mind the trigger warnings but the atmosphere and horror elements get an A+ for me

70. The New Teen Titans vol 1 by Marv Wolfman
🎧

Not exactly what I was hoping for after reading the new graphic novels but still fun to see where they all got their start

68. Bury our Bones in the Midnight Soil by V.E. Schwab
🎧
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

I know people said this book is slow (they aren’t wrong) but I LOVED this. My only issue is that we needed a sabine pov in the second half

67. Harley Quinn and the Gotham Coty Sirens by Paul Dini and Guillem March
📖
⭐️⭐️⭐️

Harley’s name is in the title but Catwoman was definitely the main focus. The main reason I didn’t rate it higher is because a bunch of issues were told from the riddlers pov like what 😂 very excited to read more
