I loved being back with Gertrude. She hasn‘t changed at all. This volume was sparkling with writer‘s joy.

I also loved chapter 5 where you can download a song and have it playing while you‘re “reading” the fight game.

It was an okay graphic novel. I don't know a lot about the main character, but I did like the plot of the story. I rated this book a 3 out of 5 stars.

This book serves not only as a biography of Baron von Steuben, but also a celebration of queerness found in the margins of history.

A lot of monsters get bloodily dispatched in a variety of ways, & there's slightly more of Geralt having baths than I personally thought was necessary (but others might have a greater penchant for those scenes than me 🛀).
While some of the monsters have tragic backstories, at the point Geralt meets them they are generally in his “deserve to die“ category, except in the Fox Children storyline, which is more nuanced.
There is some soul-searching ⬇️

Bookwomble ... about not addressing inter-human oppression, but as the conclusion of that side-arc is “it's not the business of a Witcher to intervene in human injustice“ and as this is illustrated by Geralt riding past a gang-rape, I didn't think it did him or the writer much credit. Otherwise, I thought they were well-presented stories which I enjoyed more than my review might indicate. (edited) 4mo

3 ⭐ This book was weird and at times confusing. Lady Heyn is a monster who needs to feed. A beautiful monster, but she just wants to go home. And historical gold rush town of mine that‘s also a portal to another dimension exist. Through monsters who can take the shape of humans or steal the bodies of humans and live in them have taken over. These monsters want to go home, but at the same time they just want to feed. This book was an interesting

LibrarianRyan ride. The illustrations are great, but there are seems to be holes or questions still left within the story. While I really enjoyed it, I can‘t say three months from now I will remember what it was. 6mo
