I think art & design books will be a common genre on this website. It’s a personal interest, as well as a professional one. If I were to niche myself, that’s exactly where I would be. Today’s review is one that I read a while ago, and it will likely be my last review of… Read More REVIEW: GO: A Kidd’s Guide to Graphic Design
Earlier in May, I caught the Orwell bug and read Animal Farm in three days. It was enjoyable, but also confusing since I don’t know the history it was hinting at. 1984 seemed to be more palatable and was often referenced during my time in my degree studies. When I saw this on NetGalley, I… Read More REVIEW: 1984 (The Graphic Novel)
Back again with another NetGalley book that I should’ve read and reviewed long ago but didn’t. At this point, I should stop requesting books (which I have, but still have a backlog of it) so I don’t have to face a menacing pile. I’m nearing the end of my semester, so I’ll have some time… Read More REVIEW: And We Call It Love
As a graphic design student with a long-term appreciation and love for art and books, this was calling my name. I’ve been reading more non-fiction books, mostly about art, design or self-help, which will definitely be a regular thing on my blog. I don’t really have a niche, and don’t plan to have one since… Read More REVIEW: 100 Things to Know About Art
Today’s book was one that I instantly liked from the first page, and made me cry for 25 minutes straight. It’s hopeful and harsh, violent yet sweet. It’s conflicting, just like their two worlds. … Read More REVIEW: The Sound of Violet
I used to hate the Kindle app, but now I have a newfound respect for it. When I used to download books from NetGalley, I’ve always resented downloading to Kindle because: 1. The formatting on certain books goes out of place. 2. The text on graphic novels are ridiculously tiny.3. I only have the Kindle… Read More REVIEW: Lost and Found
I like knowing things. To me, there’s an appeal about knowledge, information, facts but obtaining such knowledge is different story. I’m not one who likes watching videos about how things are made, scrolling through wikipedia and jumping from article to article till 3AM. I like reading books about such topics, but not extensive, tiring, thick… Read More REVIEW: Awesome Achievers in Technology
I don’t often read sci-fi, so today’s one is slightly out of my comfort zone. It’s not something I reach for, but after this, I’m excited to explore more in the future. Killer Domes and the Chosen Oneby Gibbo Gibbs get it here BOOK SUMMARY As the old world burned, the elite departed to colonise… Read More REVIEW: Killer Domes and the Chosen One
Every second week of the month, we read a poetry collection. I have a lot of those and there’s definitely going to be more on my blog in the future. I do fear that I fall into some sort of poetry niche, since I enjoy reading different genres and need to switch it up, else… Read More REVIEW: do you suffer?
I realised as a book reviewer, I’m filled with nothing but regrets. Today, we review a book I regret not reading earlier. This was a book I downloaded from NetGalley back in 2019, when I first started reviewing. Suddenly I was overwhelmed, fell into a slump, multiple slumps, and now in 2021, I am kicking… Read More REVIEW: The Humiliations of Pipi McGee
