Picking up directly where the first volume leaves off, this volume of I Hate Fairyland, with Gert now Queen of Fairyland, and that goes about as well as you'd expect. She is eventually ousted from the throne and continues her search for a way home, dragging the unfortunate Larry along the way.

While Scottie Young's writing is still funny and his art is as madcap as ever (and Jean-Francois Beaulieu's eye-popping colors are eye-popping!), this volume was far more episodic than the previous story arc, with each issue more or less playing out the same scenario each time: Gert finds a "new" way home each issue, which of course turns out not to be a way home and then she fights her way out of the situation in the usual bloodbath, end of issue. The final issue of the collection does offer an interesting post-apocalyptic view of Fairyland, but it's actually not made clear whether the series is continuing after this volume (which there will be after a short break until the monthly series picks back up again in March), so the casual reader may be confused about whether this is actually the close of the series.

I'll be picking up the next collection of the series for sure, regardless of the slight disappointment that came with this issue, because I Hate Fairyland is still one of the most original comics that I've read in a long time.

My absolute favorite book and book series. I first read this book when I was about 12 and fell in love with all the characters and avonlea. Anne an orphan girl goes to live with a brother and sister marilla and Matthew Cuthbert and it is all about Anne's adventures in her new home and the trials and tribulations of growing up.

Well worth the money
I fell in love with Netflix whilst home ill one weekend. I admit I am a devourer of things I love and I must have binge watched more than a months worth of series in a weekend. It's a great way to catch up on those shows you missed on other channels and find new shows to watch. You may end up, however, getting hooked on a series only to find it has been cancelled after one or two series. Netflix own original series have been pretty spectacular and just keep getting better.
Plenty of kids options for my 2 boys plus my wife can have her own profile with her own recommendations so we are all kept pretty entertained.
Overall, if you have a choice between going to a movie and paying for a month of Netflix, choose Netflix.
