My Bookish Life : Graphic Novel Spotlight

    Hello everybody! How are you guys doing ? I hope you all are having a good day . Mine has been good so far . I had my mom over to help me clean house . We had a good time today . Now I'm tired but, I want to work on my blog some.     I have to say I really like Preacher so I think this will be a pretty good review and I hope you guys like it. I hope my love of Preacher turns this into a pretty good review even though I try to leave spoilers out of it.  With that being said lets get to this review!  Title: Preacher Author: Garth Ennis Artist: Steve Dillon Pages: 160 Genre: Graphic Novel Rating: 5 stars Synopsis: At first glance, the Reverend Jesse Custer doesn't look like anybody special- just another small-town minister slowly losing both his flock and his faith. But he is about to come face-to-face with proof that god does exist . Merging with a bizarre spiritual force called Genesis , Jesse now possesses the power of "the Word" an ability to make...

My Bookish Life Book Review : We

           Hello and how are you all doing? I hope everybody is having a good day. Mine has been good but busy. I had to work earlier and then clean house. Now the kiddo is preoccupied with some toys so, I want to work on my blog while he is doing that. I have already finished one book this month so lets get to this review shall we. Title : We  Author : Yevgeny Zamyatin Genre: Fiction Pages : 108 Rating: 3 stars     Synopsis: In a glass in-closed city of absolute straight lines , ruled over by the all powerful 'Benefactor', the citizens of the totalitarian society of OneState live out lives devoid of passion and creativity- until D-503, a mathematician who dreams in numbers, makes a discovery: he has an individual soul.  My thought's on the book: This one was an ok read. It wasn't as good as I thought it was going to be but, it wasn't bad at all. As a matter of fact most of it is really well written.  A lot of the descriptions in th...

My Bookish Life : July Bookopoly/TBR

               Hello everybody and how are you guys ? I hope you all are doing good. I also hope you all had a good 4th of July. I know I did . My family shot off some fireworks and cooked out with friends it was really fun and the kids loved it! Now that I have this Monday off I want to work on my blog some . For the record I have already started reading this TBR and reviews will be posted soon. Bookopoly roll number one was an 11 which landed me on Next Book In A Series. Bookopolly Book Pick #1   The Light Fantastic by Terry Pratchett . This is the second book in the Discworld series. I have been looking forward to reading this one since I read this first book in the series and loved it. Looking forward to this one! Bookopolly Roll Number 2: My second roll was a seven . That landed me in jail meaning I have to try to read a punishment book.                         Bookopoly Pick #2...

My Bookish Life : June Reading Wrap Up

     Hello everyone! I hope you all are having a good morning! I am having a good one so far. I do have to go to work later so I want to go ahead and work on my blog some. I did a decent amount of reading last month so this is going to be a pretty ling post!      The first book I finished last month was The Case Against Socialism by Rand Paul. I loved the book and found it to be very interesting.  I would highly recommend this one . The history of socialism is very interesting and so is his explanation of the world's different tax systems. I felt like I learned a lot and so I gave this book 5 stars!    Secondly, I finished the book The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger 3: The Little Sisters of Eluria by Stephen King and Robin Furth. I really like the graphic novel adaptation of the Dark Tower series . This particular trade is pretty creepy. I don't want to say much because of spoilers but, it's very weird. I would highly recommend this one . I gave ...
