Review: Blade Breaker

Blade Breaker by Victoria Aveyard
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I guess I loved this book enough to want to order two copies? Well, not intentionally, but when I got this book, not only was it sent to my old address by mistake, but I'd somehow managed to place orders for both a signed and an un-signed copy. The un-signed copy, I've sent to an old friend from my Wattpad days. The other, I read and savored over the course of several days - and while I could only read a few chapters at a time due to the generally busy nature of my schedule, those chapters that I could read, they read super hella fast. 

Thor: Love and Thunder - Taika's Still Bloody Got It.

 **NO SPOILERS FOR LOVE AND THUNDER, BUT SPOILERS FOR PREVIOUS THOR AND AVENGERS MOVIES ABOUND WITHIN. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.***

Sounds like Marvel fatigue is setting in for a fair few fans, to the point where even when the apotheotic maestro of Ragnarok, Taika Waititi, returns with his latest Asgardian adventure, it's become a little too popular to rag on the movie just to rag on it.

I have to say, to the fans who've been dumping on this movie, kindly go eat a hammer. Taika Waititi's back and better than ever, and I'd like to say that his newest movie actually improves on Ragnarok in a few key respects.

Maybe it's not a perfect improvement. Maybe it does have its flaws.

But for Thor 4: More Thor (great, thanks for making me quote Gina Bloody Peretti), Love and Thunder is an unabashed cosmic rock-n-roll adventure with some genuine heart, and this time, Waititi even does a better job of sticking the balance between comedy and tragedy.

Taika's got another alien rainbow for you to taste...
