Me whenever I see a children's book with AI "illustrations" and cover image: ... ew. Gross. Why would you do that? Literally disgusting behavior.

Maxine is 80% done with The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle

(After Anna's identity is revealed) Oooooh... It's a different sort of failed plot device than what I thought it was. I see.

Maxine is 78% done with The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle

The author keeps insisting the protagonist care about Anna, but I don't know why. She hasn't done anything in this book but exist. She hasn't really helped the protag in any meaningful way, nor has she done anything to make her seem like an interesting/valuable character. She's more of a prop than a character, and the constant fixation on her (with nothing to back it) is getting annoying.

Maxine is 61% done with The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle

I wish Evelyn showed up more. She's a much more interesting character to me than the POV character.

Also I'm learning that I really, -really- don't like reading 1st-person POV, lol. It's really annoying to me.

Ugh, please tell me we're not getting a possessed priest in this one. 🙄 That's so overdone.

Loving this one so far!

Maxine is on page 35 of 160 of Absolute Martian Manhunter, Vol. 1: Martian Vision

I'm not a fan of the Absolute titles, but the art on this one tempted me. It's super cool! I love the trippy-ness of it. The story is fine so far, but the art is a delight!

The writing style reminds me of Matt Fraction. Which isn't a plus for me (I don't care for Fraction), but I'm sure would intrigue a lot of other readers.

Maxine is 5% done with The Wizard of Oz 15 Book Collection: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz Box Set, The Marvellous Land of Oz, Ozma of Oz, Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz, The Road ... by L. Frank Baum (2014) Paperback

I find it funny that, despite being the breakout character of the story, the original Wicked Witch of the West is only here for like... 5 pages. During which she doesn't do a whole lot, and we learn very little about her. And then she dies, by accident and with little fanfare. She's really more of a prop than an actual character.

Maxine is on page 57 of 136 of Rogue & Gambit: Power Play

*suffering through Krakoa-era garbage because my babies are in it*

Also why are the writers so allergic to writing Gambit as intelligent? Why is he always an idiot? He wasn't originally! DX
