While the art in this graphic novel is great, the storytelling is hampered by some odd stylistic choices. The first chapter is heavy with narration, leading to a slow start that unfortunately sets the pace for the rest of the book.

This is a DNF review at 30%. Regrettably, while positioned as a biography, Tiger Slayer reads more like a general history textbook. The narrative is so bogged down with unnecessary background information and tangential fluff that the actual subject of the biography is completely lost.

This is a comprehensive and very well-researched look at the history of witches and witchcraft. I was surprised by the sheer volume of historical facts the book contained and really appreciated its broad international focus.

This book is clever, witty, and an absolute blast—I was laughing out loud from beginning to end. Beyond the fantastic humor, it’s a genuinely compelling story with excellent pacing and a heartwarming theme of acceptance.

What a fun blast of Halloween nostalgia! This would-you-rather book is perfect for middle grade readers, but I had a fantastic time answering the questions as an adult, too.

Diana Wynne Jones is such a marvel of a writer. This book is packed with magic and Jones's trademark whimsy, and the setting feels both wonderfully strange and also completely real.

When it comes to books, this one is my guilty pleasure. It is my all time favorite book. It has everything that I love: whimsy, magic, intrigue, self-discovery, humor, anthropomorphic houses, and a happily-ever-after ending.

An absolutely stellar book that champions environmental awareness. This whole book is incredibly educational and inspirational. My first thought when I started it was, “Omg, I might have missed my calling in life as an environmental engineer.”
