reviewed Batgirl Vol. 1 by Kelley Puckett

Review of 'Batgirl Vol. 1' on 'Storygraph'

Cassandra Cain is unique in several ways; she not only starts off completely mute, but also illiterate. This does not stop her from kicking butt, though.

She has a great father-daughter relationship with batman, and an almost mother-daughter one with Oracle.

She is by far my favourite Batgirl, but this fell one star short because of the storytelling being so choppy. This book is a compilation of all the comics, and it seems like all the comics were written so that if you missed one, it would not matter much. This might just be me, but I like a longer storyline.

Review of 'Six of Crows' on 'Storygraph'

Six of Crows is by far now one of my favorite books. It is very fun and exciting, and the characters were very different from other current YA books out there. A major character, Kaz, walks with a limp, and the rest of the cast is very diverse. I wont spoil anything, but I really suggest reading this heist book.

Pros:
-Diverse Cast
-Great World Building
-Amazing Writing Style
-Characters Seem Real
-The story is exciting and fun.

Cons:
-Slightly cheesy romance(likely just me-I am not one for romance anyhow)

SMALL SPOILERS

-Slightly cheesy cliffhanger.
