A charming story with beautiful illustrations and good narration. I liked the authors' note about traditional Mesoamerican stories of the sun & the moon, rabbits & opossums, and ceiba trees & agave. #hoopla #espanol #spanish

Una historia preciosa con bonitas ilustraciones y buena narración. Me gustó la nota de los autores sobre los cuentos tradicionales mesoamericanos del sol y la luna, el conejo y el tlacuache, y la ceiba y el maguey.

This short audiobook was creepy but kind of a jumbled mess at the end. And a little bit corny. But I will still give this author another try. 3⭐️

Get Jiro! | Anthony Bourdain, Joel Rose

Wasn‘t a fan of this. My least favorite part of watching/reading Bourdain‘s works are his opinions about America‘s food culture. In his graphic novel, a corporate chef and a locavore chef battle for control of the upscale dining market. But Jiro, an edo-style sushi chef, and other upholders of food traditions battle back for control of America‘s stomachs. I also never appreciate his fat shaming. That really kills me about him. #hoopla

Bourdain‘s graphic novel collaborator, Joel Rose, finished this two years after Tony‘s death. The artwork in this exploration of Japanese food-related horror tales was excellent, but the copy felt unfinished. I plan to try his other graphic novels on #hoopla that were finished before his death. This one is available there, too, but I took advantage of my library‘s hard copy. Between a pick and a so-so.

JenReadsAlot Oh I need to check this out! 6mo
Megabooks @JenReadsAlot yeah, I didn‘t know he had written graphic novels until earlier this year! 6mo

Oh how I love dark academia! This tale of an older white male professor obsessed with a younger female Pakistani colleague hit on all cylinders. When a racial crisis hits campus, it reveals they both have darker pasts than first meets the eye. The ending stunned me. On #hoopla!
