So much is failing, so much is interrelated in the technosphere of ever-greater dependence and estrangement.

It's a mud puddle to plough through at extra slow speed. The second 25% is torture, 1-star in every sense. That it didn't happen saved the book and made it possible for me to forgive a lot of what did happen, although not everything. I'd have absolutely loathed either option, and both would've made this book my first DNF in years. None of which happens! There is no love triangle, thank goodness, and the Alder King stays a bastard till the very end, thank Marissa Meyer. As I mentioned in my old review, certain things in the sample made me worry about two things: the possibility of a love triangle and the possibility of a redemption for the Erlkönig. It's the part at Adelheid Castle after the Erlking forces Serilda to be his queen, this is no spoiler as it's already in the first book. You could divide the book into four parts, the first 25% is as I described in my old review of the ARC sample (the final published book was purchased by me, so it's not an ARC), and on reread, it still holds up and gets 4 stars. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() So, hope you weren’t excited for a new, fresh team idea. Not to mention her entire team from the first issue is killed in the fight. Huntress, during a fight with Per Degaton (who is actually very well done), is sent back through time to 1940. This issue does an entire heel-turn from the first issue. I’m hoping that changes with this 12-issue mini. Sure, a character might die, or a city might be different, but nothing changes. Things get wild, universes collide, timelines shatter, but everything’s back the way it should be at the end. “Safe.” Even when he’s writing some giant, universe-shaking status quo “changing” piece like Flashpoint or Doomsday Clock, it always feels so… safe. That’s the best word I can think of to describe Johns’ work. When I was a kid reading his comics, something about that nostalgic resurgence of all the great Silver Age heroes, the ones I saw watching Super Friends growing up, rather than the confusing new characters I’d never heard of (Who’s Blue Beetle? Why is Green Lantern’s hair black and not brown? Wally West is great and all, but Barry Allen is the real Flash!) really hooked me. I used to be a MASSIVE fan of Geoff Johns’ work. ![]() ![]() ![]() What they don’t expect is to find a lasting friendship that will help them through they own individual issues. Together, these three women buy a beautiful tea set. With her successful florist business, her past returns and shows her what she wants for her future.Īlison is a married mother of two, who is seeking to help her family in a time of crisis. Maggie is a divorcee who has built her new life alone. She has issues at home however as her absent mother decides to make an appearance. Jenny is an excited bride to be, who seeks the tea set for her vintage styled wedding. Rather than any of them being disappointed they buy the set together so that they can all benefit from it. So this book is about three women who all attempt to buy the same set of vintage teacups. Honestly, I bought this because I am a sucker for a vintage teacup – sad I know! ![]() And book number seven is…The Vintage Teacup Club by Vanessa Greene. ![]() |
