Keeping It Real Chapter 3
So I have to wonder how humans managed to create massively advanced technology in this. Especially considering that everyone lost all the records of 2015 and then the names of major cities. They must have forgotten history too because they … Continue reading
Inheritance Chapter 57
The last couple of chapters got me thinking about dragon eggs. Not about the physiology, that’s pointless when dealing in fantasy because the author’s answer will always just be “it’s magic”. I mean more about them and Gabby. Like, why … Continue reading

Inheritance Chapter 34
This chapter is called “and the walls fell”. Just as long as I don’t have to listen to Def Leopard while it happens. We rejoin Eragon after our lengthy interlude with Roran. It’s been so long I can hardly remember … Continue reading

Inheritance Chapter 32
So here we are, over thirty chapters into this book and not even the hint of Gabby. Keep in mind this book is seventy nine chapters long. This is another problem I have with this series. Gabby’s lack of presence. … Continue reading

Maximum Ride Chapters 77 & 78
Here’s another question for you Jimmy. How are the kids hiding their wings? You made mention earlier when Max got a sweatshirt with holes cut out in the back from Ella’s mom. That’d mean Max and the rest either have … Continue reading
Bree Part 16
Riley mentions that there’s only seven members of this other clan. Which is fine I suppose, it’s quite technically true. After all, Bella never really counts as one of the Cullens. She’s certainly not vey useful until the author bestows … Continue reading
Bree Part 9
So last time this got so painful I had to end the recap, that is to say all the characters were writhing in pain. And really, what better place to end a recap? I just wanted to hold that image … Continue reading
Brisingr Chapters 17 & 18
These Chapters are called ‘intersecting sagas’ and ‘making amends’. Eragon heals a tumor then decides to hold a weekly session where he does requests and then decides he needs a sword. It might sound like I’m compressing three boring things … Continue reading

Eldest Chapters 17 & 18
These chapters are called ‘down the rushing mere-wash’ and ‘drifting’. Did you think that we’d start being able to skip all the dull in between dicking around Eragon does because Chris has added another character? Yeah, so did I. Instead … Continue reading
