I Thought It Was Just Me

by C. Brené Brown
- Rated 5 stars
“Thought-provoking ideas for considering the actions of women's lives that are driven by shame. Would like to see this researched more with men as well. I'm also interested in some of her scholarly work on the topic. I think it could be an interesting theoretical framework for analyzing interactions.”

“I wanted to read more Chinese manuha, but if they are all as depressing as this one, I'm not so sure. Talented artist though.”

“It's embarrassing to admit I'm still reading this series, but in my defense the characters are getting stronger and therefore more interesting.”

Palestine

by Joe Sacco

“These people's stories are important to be told, but the journalist's voice and drawing style grated on me, detracting from the subject.”

Introducing Media Studies, 3rd Edition

by Ziauddin Sardar
- Rated 2 stars
“I had read another book in this series and found it an insightful overview of a particular field of study. This one was more fractured in structure and less helpful, going more for flash than substance. Unfortunately my library only has this older edition, so I'm hoping the revised edition is more useful for scholars.”

Bride of the Water God 5

by Mi-Kyung Yoon
- Rated 4 stars
“The art is still so gorgeous, but why does the plot continue to feel so disjointed? The hero is appealing enough to keep me going until more is revealed.”
