My Picks

Gettin' Through Thursday by Melrose Cooper &NNeka Bennett

Empress of the World by Sara Ryan

Making Comics by Scott McCloud

These three books are my current picks at the bookstore. I'm suppose to be publishing these on the website but the FTP server isn't cooperating and I don't know the password to fix it. Instead I'm publishing them here. The first book is a picture about a low-income family dealing with day before payday when there's no money left for anything. The second is a young adult novel about a girl discovering that she likes other girls. It's very sweet and deals with the subject matter in a very mature way. The final book is the third "how-to" book from Scott McCloud, probably the most popular North American comic book theorist. This book discuss the issues and theory about actually creating comics. It's a must for anyone interested in comics.

The coffee shop I usually go to gave me green tea instead of Earl Grey. Green tea doesn't taste good with milk and sugar. Oh well...
