Empire of Silence – Book Review

April 11, 2021 by hpholo Leave a Comment

I finished reading Empire of Silence a little over a year ago, but it was one of those books that I enjoyed so much, my only reaction at the time was *excited pterodactyl noises.* (Admittedly, I don’t actually know what an excited pterodactyl sounds like, nor what sort of noise it would make after discovering […]

Grave Mercy – Book Review

December 19, 2020 by hpholo Leave a Comment

Nun assassins, y’all. I’m not sure why the marketing didn’t just splash that all over the front of Grave Mercy, as once I heard that description, I was all over this book. For those who need more, here is the description from the book itself: Escaping from the brutality of an arranged marriage, seventeen-year-old Ismae […]

Redline – Anime Review

November 27, 2019 by hpholo 1 Comment

While watching Promare’s spectacular animation, I was reminded quite a bit of Redline, and then when writing my Promare review, I realized I’d never actually reviewed Redline. So I’m here to remedy that. Redline is a 2009 anime that follows the gloriously pompadoured Sweet JP as he and his Trans Am compete to win the […]

Promare – Anime Review

November 27, 2019 by hpholo Leave a Comment

Pssh. Right, like a Trigger movie would come to our local theatre and it NOT be a Mandatory Date Night. Promare starts with a literal bang, as half the world’s population spontaneously bursts into flames, thus marking the Great World Blaze and the appearance of the Burnish – people with fire-manipulating powers who set the […]

Food Wars (S1) – Anime Review

April 21, 2019 by hpholo Leave a Comment

After subjecting Jacob to the emasculating experience that was Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!, I decided to have some mercy and suggest Food Wars, which has become famous (infamous?) for its fanservice. Food Wars (aka Shokugeki no Soma) follows amateur chef Yukihira Soma, whose dream of becoming a full time chef at his father’s […]

Mary Poppins Returns – Movie Review

January 21, 2019 by hpholo 1 Comment

In Mary Poppins Returns, there’s a song titled “A Cover is not the Book.” It’s about various whimsical figures who are not what they seem on the surface, but it might as well be about the movie itself: What looks to be an expensive, nostalgia-reliant cash grab is…well, still an expensive, nostalgia-reliant cash grab, but […]

Self-Publishing for Profit – Book Review

February 18, 2018 by hpholo Leave a Comment

These days, “How to Self-Publish” books are a dime a dozen. Chris Kennedy’s Self-Publishing for Profit is $6.99 on Kindle, but it’s easily the best $6.99 you’ll ever spend if you’re looking to break into self-publishing. Kennedy’s writing background is similar to that of many indie writers, which is to say, he’d never really been […]
