Anaïs Nin: A Sea of Lies

I’m not at all surprised Anaïs Nin: A Sea of Lies by Léonie Bischoff is a European import (translated by Jenna Allen). It pretty much has to be, given the subject matter: a woman as famous for whom she slept with as what she wrote, and when she wrote, her work involved sex and desire. (Plus, a lot of biographical comics seem to start outside the US.) What struck me most about this graphic biography, though, was its style. It [...]

Shake It Up: Cocktails Inspired by the Music of Taylor Swift

I should preface this by saying I do not consider myself a Swiftie (a Taylor Swift fan). I only know the songs that have become hits. But a dear friend of mine is a fan, and so I thought I’d check this out, and then make her a gift of it. Shake It Up: Cocktails Inspired by the Music of Taylor Swift contains 65 drink recipes, all given pun-nish names based on her songs and accompanied by a brief description [...]

Pupposites Attract Volume 1

Pupposites Attract by Hono Natsuna bills itself as “a fluffy, feel-good romance”, which it is, and that’s just the kind of light-hearted read I wanted. The “fluffy” is relevant in more ways than one, as the meet-cute happens due to a couple of dogs, ones that demonstrate the perception that “opposites attract” with pets and their owners. Tsubu-chan is a big, scary-looking Rottweiler owned by Chiharu, a petite woman (but with an inner strength that matches her pet, who’s really [...]

As part of the press release, the publisher mentioned that Snipes now held two Guinness World Records relating to his role as Blade, the vampire hunter.

Ted Lasso: The Richmond Way

I’m a big fan of physical media. Streaming services are convenient for pulling up on any screen — tablet, computer, TV… assuming the internet’s working sufficiently — but discs don’t require a never-ending monthly payment that tends to keep going up. Ted Lasso is one of my favorite sitcoms, for its characterization, charm, comedy, and Anglophilia. The story (based on a character originally developed for an ad, of all things!) revolves around a Kansas college football coach (Jason Sudeikis) who [...]
