I've played a lot of Garfield games, but not Magic: The Gathering... and you probably need to enjoy the game to enjoy the book.
As is, it felt like a lot of exposition to me, which made the reading slow. It is needed to understand the rich context, bu

Murder on a Moon Trek by Diane Vallere

I'm not sure how to feel about this story. The pace was good and if it was less rushed it could have been much stronger. The ending comes too abruptly and doesn't answer all the questions that were raised. I wasn't a fan of the characters either, so ...more

Model Actress Whatever by Kim Newman

This is a book with voice.
It has a fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek, 10,000 jokes, heavy British slang, alternative world jargon and continuous action and banter.
The plot is amazingly paced, you feel the experience of the writer, how the ideas fit togeth

Beautifully illustrated graphic biography of George Sand (especially her earlier years).
I might have liked it to be less distant from the her, but I was happy to see that it mentioned a lot of her work and made the parallel between what she wrote ab

The Cutting Garden by Darcy Van Poelgeest

A beautiful watercolour southern gothic graphic novel.
There is a deeply classic feel to this very beautiful book, which reminded me of 1800s vampire short stories, the ones that came out before Dracula and are more about atmosphere and "Romanticism"

Good range of recipes that bring home-cooked Caribbean food to everyone's table. A lot of great recipes and photos to help you know what it's all supposed to look like, which is so useful when you've never eaten something. Really enjoyed it. ...more

My Jamaican Table by Andre Fowles
Rate this book

An absolutely delicious read! I want to try everything in this cookbook, it is fresh, vibrant, spicy and full of authentic Jamaican flavours that just leap right off the page.
This is one book I want in my kitchen library so I can go back to it again
