Everything I Need to Know in Life I Learned from Joss Whedon by Valerie Estelle Frankel
3.0
This book is pretty good if you are already familiar with Whedon's work. I love Buffy (it's my favorite show of all time), I like Angel very much, I loved the first Avenger's movie and really liked Cabin in the woods. I haven't watched some of the other shows, movies and comics this book talks about, but I still enjoyed it very much. I know feel the need to rewatch Buffy and Angel again (for the Nth time). I'm watching Firefly because of this, and I'm interested in Dollhouse as well.
So basically, if you're a fan of Whedon's, you will enjoy this.
I recommend it.

Consider the Fork: A History of How We Cook and Eat by Bee Wilson

3.5/5
I really liked this book. I read it for the read harder challenge, microhistory. I found it to be very interesting, and I learned a lot about the history of every day cooking utensils. If you love food and cooking you might enjoy this. I also recommend it to history lovers.

2.5/5
This story had potential but it felt flat. I was underwhelmed by the graphics and story. If you're a fan I still recommend it.

Finally this is getting interesting! This is one of the best so far. I want to know how all is going to end.

The story is interesting but I got bored. I will continue with the next volume because I still want to know where the story goes.
The Funny Thing Is... by Ellen DeGeneres
2.0
2.5/5
I don't know what it is with me and comedians books, they just don't do it for me. I always 'read' them on audiobook format, because they're read by the comedians themselves, and I really like that. I have seen Ellen perform her stand up show and she's hilarious, so I don't know why I can't get into her books. I did like this more than her newest one so there's my silver lining.
I laugh a few times, it wasn't too long or too short, it was just meh.

The Little Android by Marissa Meyer

It starts a bit slow but gets better towards the end. I liked it, but I don't see the relevance to the other books in this saga. You can read it, but it's not necessary.
The Queen's Army by Marissa Meyer

So far this's my favorite story from the lunar chronicles. It tells us the back story of Wolf. It was very interesting and made this character more complex than in Scarlet (I read this after Scarlet and before Crest). I recommend it.
