Books and tea! What else do you need to bring home from vacation? Super excited that I was finally able to track down We Don’t Eat Our Classmates. Also that mix and match book on the left is gorgeous and fun and amazing. Add two Abby Howard Earth Before Us books, two used romance novels, and a pile of different teas, and I’m a super happy reader.

Used romance novels that look basically new? Yes please. I love a good used bookstore. And also a romance novel with a bad title or cover.

Happy December! It’s gloriously cloudy and rainy where I am. I love it. This time of year makes me so nostalgic. I read this book in elementary school, and never forgot the story. So last year I bought it for myself, and I love having it on my shelf.

What are the books from your childhood that have remained with you through the years? What stories have stuck in your head even if you haven’t read them since you were young?

I’m sick. I’m settling in with miso soup, a hot toddy, leftover Halloween candy, and a pile of books that need finished.

Forbidden Brides of the Faceless Slaves in the Secret House of the Night of Dread Desire by Neil Gaiman and Shane Oakley
Troll Bridge by Neil Gaiman and Colleen Doran
During my library visit I found two comic adaptations of short stories by Neil Gaiman, which is always fun. Since they were shorter I read them one after the other, comparing their artwork and how much I enjoyed the adaptation of the story.
I liked Troll Bridge best namely because it’s one of my favorite short stories by this author. Also, Colleen Doran made it very fun to read and see her characterization with colors!
Forbidden Brides was also good, a satirical story with striking comic art, but some panels were hard to tell what was going on because there was too much happening at once. I did appreciate Shane Oakley’s art style, giving this story the gothic appeal it rightfully deserves.
Chivalry by Neil Gaiman and Colleen Doran
Chivalry is one of my favorite short stories by Neil Gaiman and I have been patiently waiting for the graphic novel to be released.
My thoughts?
I think Colleen Doran did a fabulous job illustrating and formatting this story, creating an adaptation that is beautiful, funny, and heartfelt.
Neil Gaiman’s short story is about an elderly woman who finds the Holy Grail at a secondhand shop. She is then visited by a knight in shining armor who wants the Grail to finish his quest. She is not going to let him have it that easily, though.
I liked how Doran used different styles of lettering and her comedic expressions on the characters. Her art is very eye catching and the cover of the book screams “I must be read NOW”.
I’m so happy this came out and that I got a chance to read it again!
Beast Commission! Super fun to get these requests! Taking commissions now - if interested see info here: http://www.corinneroberts.net/comms

Me writing in my head: *everything is perfectly poetic and on point*
Trying to bring these words on paper: *sounds like a three-year-old found a pencil*
Either I don’t like a show/book or I need an exorcism.
Sometimes I just wanna read and never come back.

Merry night before Christmas and happy holidays to everyone celebrating this season. My favourite part of Christmas is family tradition. My whole family comes up and we bake a dozen sponge and black cakes. What are your traditions?
