Rising sea levels are a very real danger around the world – though perhaps snot in the way that the author necessarily describes. Though, granted, after the hurricane we saw last year in New York City you might begin to wonder. The Ward takes place in the 2100s after a catastrophic event […]
Nothing Can Possibly Go Wrong…
Most of the comic books I read are published by Marvel so I always appreciate the chance to check out something new and original. Nothing Can Possibly Go Wrong is an fun, quirky graphic novel for YA readers set in your average Southern high school. And I thought it was […]
Get Intimate With BioShock: Infinite
I think we can all pretty much agree that BioShock: Infinite is an absolutely gorgeous game. The environment is bright, colorful, dynamic and engaging. The character designs are absolutely perfect for the alternate history setting. Every area works together to paint a seamless portrait of a crazy, floating dystopia built […]

Enter The Forest of Hands and Teeth
With zombies becoming increasingly more popular it’s no surprise that a slew of young adult and new adult titles featuring the formerly human creatures have been hitting the market over the past few years. To be honest, I couldn’t be happier. I love zombies. Always have. Always will. No matter […]

Before I begin this review I should probably be honest. This is one of my favorite books of all time. There are very few books that I will say that about and I will admit that no matter what I write here I cannot fully express just how awesome it […]
Cinderella is a Cyborg
At least, she is in the fairytale inspired novel Cinder by Marissa Meyer. When I picked up this book I figured it was going to be your usual fairy tale adaptation. They are pretty common these days. Once Upon A Time on ABC does it with a campy, family friendly flare that’s really gotten […]
