What I hope to get through for #JanuaryBluesReadathon. First up is Odder.

This comic book fills in the gap of when Suki is in prison and also provides more background on Suki and the Kyoshi warriors.
3.5/5 read for a very short and insightful story for fans of Avatar the Last Airbender

There are so many books I want to read, I couldn't get them all on one collage.

Do you see any you're planning on reading this upcoming year?

A comic book about making comics! I loved the information on body language and how comics are made, and I am excited to use the idea of making mini-comics.

This one was ok. I‘m definitely interested to see where the next one leads but I was a bit bored for most of this first installment.

This was a delightful listen. I thoroughly enjoyed the magical system and the characters. It‘s the first book of a series, but it has a complete story of its own. Faye has grown up as the daughter of the groundskeeper for a wizard, and she‘s learned a lot about magical creatures and the magical properties of plants. When the wizard suddenly dies, she gets caught up in events as his ghost chooses a successor.

#Celebrate LockedRmMystery This song is about how we put on a facade because we have insecurities to hide. I feel like a locked room mystery does the same. Sara McLachlan released this song in 1997. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

An interesting moving work of historical fiction centred on the life of a true hero, Donaldina Cameron who carried out brave and daring missions to rescue slave girls and prostitutes who were trafficked into America from China. The book is narrated through two perspectives one of Donaldina and the other of a Chinese girl Mei Lien who has been sold into the prostitution ring in China Town. Well written and Completely engaging. Listened on Audible.

For January‘s #AuthorAMonth, I chose the first book in this children‘s series by Ursula (aka T. Kingfisher) in honor of my childhood pet hamster Squeaky. ☺️It‘s a sweet retelling (with a hilariously fun “girl power” twist!) of the Sleeping Beauty tale. Loved Ursula‘s spunky heroine Harriet, her cool illustrations and witty sense of humor. Will definitely be reading more! 🙌🏻
