Ruth Frampton (577 KP) rated Once Upon a Rainbow, Volume Two in Books
Apr 10, 2018
A fantastic collection of fairy stories retelling some of the childhood favourites from an LGBTQIA+ pov. The style chosen to write these stories in may not be for everyone but I for one enjoyed their content and their filling of a gap in the inclusiveness of literature generally. As a beginning piece in providing reading material for all, this is a definite plus, but it is also something that needs working on and improving, those coming after will surely be able to improve.

Excellent HP lovecraftean game
Excellent horror board game that really suckers you into the game with great illustrations and exploration of the haunted house. It will pass the time away nicely on a dark evening with your friends.
Its engaging and challenging too so as you play you will be challenging them little grey cells in your head.
If your into board games definitely consider having this in your collection.

For the hour or two that it takes to read this book of poems, many will feel that they have a friend. Someone who understands what they're going through. It feels very much like a pep talk from your best friend, reminding you of your worth. Most of the poems are very short. 3-5 lines for the smallest, but overall I really liked this collection, and I plan to read the other two in the series.

I found the premise of this novel - a collection of novellas tenuously linked together quite a tedious read. however, it is so well written that I was compelled to read it to the end, yet I still struggled to see what linked them all together. Each story is composed in a different genre or style, from the 17th century to the post apocalyptic future, which shows Mitchell's ability to write multi genre. That is about all this novel had going for it though.

Unique stories
I am bias in regards to Peter S. Beagle, however, it is warranted. His stories are both timeless and changing. I am ridiculously happy with the story spook Joe Farrell is my hero. Each world different and unique. I would enjoy this as an audiobook, it seemed that most of his stories should be spoken. Whether to be redeemed in a fantasy world or playing stickball with a witch in NYC this fantasy collection has a little something for everyone.

It is fun seeing how the Dresden Files have evolved. This collection of shorts are fun and entertaining. Sometimes I think Jim Butcher is a little too excited about putting Harry in the thick of it. Most stories are laugh out loud and while they tell you which books each story is before or between you really should wait until.you finnish Changes before you read them. Beware the last story has sooooo many spoilers if you don't.

Merissa (12822 KP) rated The Embrace of Nature in Books

The title of this book is almost as long as the book itself! It is a collection of 5 short stories which are VERY short. The longest tale is the folk-tale of the Green Man which is tugging at my memory, I'm sure I've seen it somewhere before.
On the whole, an interesting read but it was just too short for me to actually "get into". I had finished it before I had even realised it.
Very good but needed more.
