Zoey Punches the Future in the Dick by David Wong

Go to review page

Did not finish book. Stopped at 9%.
I just don't like Zoey. I couldn't get past her not knowing what she owned or what she was in charge of and needing a feet of men to help her run her life. I may have just needed to read more to get to a place where she did but I just couldn't get there with this. There is other books that do capitalism is bad better in my opinion and it might just not be my humor and cup of tea. But I just can't with this one

HOLY SHIT THIS IS EVERYTHING! Okay so our boy, our asshole cursed boy has the best humor every and he's a huge dick which I love honestly and on top of that he has a tragic backstory and the only person he opens up to is Rayne our little cinnamon roll. Yes yes and yes. She has a very messed up family and past that's simple enough for a graphic novel but so relatable and real. And she's so soft and kind with such sadness right under the surface. I love her. And they are trying to break this boys curse while just vibing in a converted school bus. And there is a great and tragic overarching plot. Anyway I love this so much I'll he yelling about it for a while.

This was so much better than I even expected it to be. Boy from hyper religious school summons a demon to help him with his stressful life? Hell yea sign me up. This goes in none of the directions I thought it was going to go and I loved every second of it. I want more of it right now! I am obsessed with their dynamic. The art is so good. I want to know everything about the religious shit and all the stuff. This is is so good.

This is so cute! And ridiculously fun! I'm going to read the rest on webtoon to finish it so I can read it all right now. Love how gay it is and the theme of having choice. And being a lover of anime makes it right up ny alley.

This is a very bleak look on where the 'death of the small town' could go in the extreme. The art in this is amazing and honestly was my favorite part. But the other all story is very sad. It doesn't even end very happy which is kind of a bummer after how hard she fights for revenge and justice. All and all an interesting Scifi story and such with good art but a very sad story.

Major Holmes & Captain Watson #1 by Jeff Rider

fast-paced

3.0

This is fine. Sherlock is gay which is great. Watson is kickass. But that's where my praise of this ends. This is just fine, and I do know that I have high standards for remakes of this, there is so many Sherlock Holmes remakes so you have to do something new, but this takes his very perceptive detective stuff to a rediculous level. It's fine. Im not continuing it.
