Last year I managed to read 55 books by the end of 2015. In the spirit of competing with myself, I added 5 more books to the goal which didn’t seem impossible, especially since I am back at work after 10 months of funemployment due to a layoff. However, I forgot to add my comic […]

Not all comic books are centered on Superheroes and most of those that feature women do so in skimpy clothes. Been there, seen it, read it. However, there are many serious works of arts in graphic novel format that take into account magic and supernatural beings, in a more sophisticated and erudite vibe. Unlike the […]

Millennials have been told for decades that they need to have a healthy self-esteem but what I have noticed is that […]
There is this new fad from Japan called Tsum Tsum which is nothing more than stackable plushies!
