Things I Like #5: Re-reading My Favorite Series
He Who Fights with Monsters Book 11 just came out. But before reading it, I feel like I need a reminder of why I like this series so much. So I decided to re-read it. I was able to read…
The Wandering Inn, Book 1
3 stars. I really wanted to like this. I might come back to it later. I heard good things about this series, called The Wandering Inn. When people in groups were recommending books, it would often be mentioned. Not as…
Beware of Chicken, Books 1-4
5 stars. Love it so far. I could see myself reading the whole series. It’s been a quiet July. I’ve found it difficult to get into any book. I tried picking up a book I started previously, and didn’t get…
Trapped in Myriad Online
5 stars. A book I bought on a whim turned out to be pretty good. Every once and I while, I pick a book at random and purchase it. This is one of those books. I liked the title and…
Opinion: The Curse of The Daily Serial
Last month, I got onto such a The Primal Hunter kick. I listened to books 5-8 on Audible. Then I read book 9 on Amazon Kindle. I couldn’t get enough. I wanted to know what happened to certain characters. So…
Pet Peeve #7: Endless Side Quests

Magic 2.0, Book 2
4.0 stars. A much better improvement over the first book. Until the last chapter. Wow, somehow I continued on to the second book of Magic 2.0. So far, it’s a lot better than the first. So, credit to the author.…
Pet Peeve #6: Illogical Decisions, Repeatedly
I guess I alluded to these things earlier. I hate when the adults in a book are the incompetent ones and the kids are left to solve the problems. That’s illogical to me. I hate when the main character has…
Magic 2.0, Book 1
2 stars. Unrealistic actions by characters ruin the fantasy. This is an old book that I decided to listen to for the second time. It has an interesting premise. A wannabe hacker stumbles upon a text file on the Internet…
Speedrunning the Multiverse, Book 1
4.5 stars. I like the anti-hero. The premise is pretty clever. A time-travelling Godking is so old and so bored, that he spends his time repeatedly racing to go from completely powerless to the most powerful being in the multiverse…
