Want to check out new magical worlds filled with extraordinary world-building, incredible and unique characters, and an epic adventure you won’t be able to forget? Fantasy novels give me that. Always. The way you can just enter this magical place of new beginnings is wonderful and I’m always grateful for the fantasy genre. And these

Real talk: When I’m not looking up travel photos or doing some serious creeping on the people who I went to high school with (we all do it, fess up), I’m scouring Instagram for food. Whether it be recipes, #FoodPorn, cheese pulls, or meal prep inspo, I stare at my screen salivating and envious at

Family can be a touchy subject, particularly around the holiday season. While some of you may have returned home to reconnect with beloved family members, others have been gritting their teeth for two months straight. That’s why I find the trope of found or chosen families so meaningful. If your biological family situation doesn’t provide
Superheroes are great for a lot of things, but no matter how much they brood, they can’t seem to stay too serious for too long, which is why superhero puns are so so great. With their strange mythologies and quirky, complicated story lines, you just can’t be too serious about your fandom, no matter which

Every time one of those threads comes up on Twitter about your first childhood crush, I always get stuck, completely unable to come to a decision. Who was my first crush? What counts as a crush, anyway? And when you grew up imbibing the media that I did, you need more than 280 characters to

With the world being a difficult place for those of any marginalized background, one of the things those of us who are looking to do something can do is donate to those in need. Thousands of teachers each year ask for a little help with seeking supplies for their classrooms via Donors Choose; organizations that
On November 27, Forbes published an article by Dani di Placido titled “DC Films Still Doesn’t Know What to Do With Superman.” It’s sparked a lot of chatter and opining on social media, as such things are wont to do, but as I scrolled my feed I noticed a vast majority of the folx responding
Did y’all know Diana could swing between lightning bolts with her lasso? Because I did not know that but now that I’ve seen it, I want it. Also, the tiara is a boomerang. [embedded content] What We Liked The music: If you lived through the ’80s, the techno beat and the song choice immediately took you
I hate when people declaim on comics and graphic novels not being “real” books. They have words, they tell a story, they evoke emotions; they are, therefore, books. Full stop. I say this not only as a rando human who writes about comics but also as the mother of a former reluctant solo reader: my now
Do you like reading books with non-human protagonists? All Systems Red follows a sentient security bot, who calls itself Murderbot, as it protects a team of explorers on what’s supposed to be a peaceful mission which turns dark. Recommended to me by a friend, I went in without any expectations and came out loving Murderbot
Before I’d truly explored Long Island, a place I’ve called home for my entire life, I felt limited to Barnes & Noble and Borders (RIP), where I’d beg my mom to stop as we drove past on our way to the Smith Haven Mall. I’ve been a reader my entire life and I craved a

Even though I came to comics late in life, I was immediately skeptical when Dean and Shannon Hale first released their middle grade novels based upon the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl arc. Would they be able to match Ryan North’s fantastic sense of humor? Would the story be as engaging without Erica Henderson’s expressive drawings? Did
Kids are more perceptive than many adults give them credit for, and they know when there’s something big going on in the lives of people around them, be it something good or something not so good. Sometimes, however, it’s hard to know how to talk to kids about subjects like anxiety or cancer or friendship;
I know, I know. I didn’t care either. But every time there’s a new casting announcement, I find myself a little more intrigued. A little more willing to give it a shot. Because the talent in this thing is going to be phenomenal and maybe, just maybe, it will be the reboot we need and deserve. I’m
Comics are overwhelming and enthralling. But where to begin? It feels like every author, illustrator, and series has a cult following with folks who know something you don’t (and can’t find on Wikipedia). However, you’ve seen the illustrated covers in your local bookstore and artfully displayed all over your Bookstagram and want to know: “Where
“Mom, I read a book today and I liked it so much.” I was 10 years old and in the middle of a glorious, book-filled summer break. The sun was just beginning to sink toward the horizon as I set the table and my mom cooked at the stove. “What was it about?” she asked
The holiday season is near. Hopefully that means you’ll get some much needed time away from school, work, or whatever else keeps you from enjoying the things you really want to do, like spending an afternoon in an extreme streaming marathon. Speaking of streaming marathons, we have rounded up some of the best book adaptations
