  Do you like Monster High, Ever After High, or both?  Either way, Here's a crossover book between my two of my favorite doll franchises! Was this story good? Well... The Legend of Shadow High by Shannon Hale and Dean Hale starts off with Frankie Stein and Draculaura from Monster High who hear rumors about a high school monsters historically went to called Shadow High. They find a map and try out some spells to take them to this  Shadow High, but they end up in Ever After High instead! When their sudden appearance causes chaos and gets them in trouble, they are taken under the wings of Apple White and Raven Queen, and they become friends. Well, the new friends find out that Raven's mother, the Evil Queen, wants to also get to Shadow High and take over the World of Stories. The World of Stories happens to be the world where all fictional characters (monsters and fairy tale characters mostly) live, separate from our world by the Fourth Wall (get it?). They have to stop the...

  I unfortunately can't watch the anime right now because I don't have a subscription to Crunchyroll. But reading the manga is equally a fun experience! Spy x Family by Tatsuya Endo takes place in a location that seems to be inspired by Germany during the Cold War in real life. This fictional country is divided in two: Westalis and Ostania. Our MC is a spy with the codename Twilight and is from Westalis. He is tasked with a mission to get information from a shady government official from Ostania named Donovan Desmond, who only makes public appearances at his son's elite school. Twilight has to carry out the mission by adopting a kid, getting married to some woman, enrolling the kid into the academy, and pretending to be a parent in order to get information on Donovan. Twilight adopts the name Loid and adopts a telepathic girl from an orphanage named Anya. Anya immediately becomes attached to Loid, which is really cute to watch. Like all kids, she is a handful, but also real...

  Laziness Does Not Exist by Devon Price is a nonfiction informational self help book on rethinking the way we get motivated, do work, do things, and get rest.  Dr. Devon Price talks about how American culture in particular has become so obsessed with us doing work or anything at all to the point of breaking because we often times do not want to be seen as "lazy". Well, it turns out laziness is a lit in it of itself, and they use every chapter of this book to deconstruct the myth of laziness, from it's roots in religion to capitalism to racism, classism, sexism, and especially ableism. Throughout the book Dr. Price weaves several studies and anecdotes on stories of people they've interviewed to their own personal life stories on how overworking is not good for our health in the long run and what can we do to recognize our own biases, listen to our gut feelings, and take more breaks.  This book is pretty much in the similar vein as Do Nothing by Celeste Headlee (a bo...

TW: Things catching on fire mentioned  Another great Nancy Drew mystery! I gave it 5 stars . In this book, Nancy Drew is staying at the historical Lilac Inn for the wedding of her friend, Emily. When she arrives there, things start to get weird. Things vanish and move around, and some parts of the Inn's infrastructure seem to be malfunctioning. The Inn is rumored to be haunted, and Nancy is trying to figure out the logical explanation behind all of the mishaps. At the same time, someone stole Nancy's personal information and is pretending to be her, and Nancy starts getting accused of things she didn't do. So then Nancy has to figure out who her imposter is and put a stop to them.  Like the previous novels, the two seemingly separate mysteries happen to be connected at the end, and there are a ton of red herrings that will through you off course as you try to figure out the mystery with Nancy and her friends. I should mention that in the second half of the book there is a...

  For some reason, it took me a really long time to read this book. The first time I tried reading it was way back in high school, and I only got halfway through it and I got caught up reading other stuff. Then I tried reading it again in August this year and, if you've been keeping up with me, I got caught up reading other things. I finally read the whole thing a few days ago. It was totally worth it!  Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library by Chris Grabenstein is about a boy named Kyle who loves to play games from the quirky businessman, Mr. Lemoncello. After submitting an essay at the last minute for a writing competition, Kyle and several of his classmates in his English class at school get to stay overnight at Mr. Lemoncello's new library in their hometown before it officially opens to the public! But it's not any normal overnight stay, because Mr. Lemoncello and the librarian, Dr. Zichenko, turn the library into one big escape room. Kyle and his friends have to wor...
