This volume packs in loads of action and loads of heart. The artist made colour choices that make the pages a real pleasure to look at, and the story moves at a perfect pace.

More Memoir Than Self-Help
3 stars
I love Mazzanoble's voice and it comes across so well in this book. This book is packed with stories from her life but the connections to D&D don't feel as substantial as I hoped. There are fun references to the game throughout but it doesn't quite land as either an introduction to or advocate for D&D.

Apollo finished reading Under the Poppy by Kathe Koja
Apollo reviewed Under the Poppy by Kathe Koja
Tragic, Character-Focused, Unsettling
3 stars
I had Under the Poppy on my to read list and in my collection for longer than any other book but happily finally sat down to read it this month. It's a dark, troubling novel with a heavy emphasis on characters saddled with trauma and desperate situations. The writing is evocative and pulls the reader into the world with a dire gravity.
