Book Review: Serenity - Leaves on the Wind

Book club this month was read what you want. I wanted to finish book 4 of Game of Thrones but it's sooooo looooong! So since I didn't finish it, I'm making up for it by reading a comic/graphic novel I've been meaning to read for awhile. June 2015: Read what you want Serenity - Leaves on the Wind By Zack Whedon 2014 152 pages My name is Lisa, and I am a Browncoat. I loved Firefly. I liked Serenity the Movie. I have Captain Mal "action figures" and a custom set of Lego minifigures of the crew. I enjoyed the previous graphic novels, and this is no exception - it was a good edition to the 'Verse. It follows the movie and the Wash one-shot Float Out. Don't read this unless you know the story and characters, right up until the Wash one-shot. This volume follows up everything and answers many questions about River, Mal & Inara, Zoe etc. It specifically delves deeper into where River as we know her came from. It brings back old characters you thought you...

Book Review: Petty Theft

I happened across a list of the best graphic novels of 2014, and one sounded interesting because it had to do with single people and books (so right up my alley). Bonus - the public library had it and I didn't even need to wait on a long list to take it out. So, even though I don't really love graphic novels, this was my chance to try a new one that was highly rated and might change my opinion on the genre(?). Petty Theft By Pascal Girard 2014 104 pages Pascal is having hard time. He recently got out of a long term relationship, and screwed up his back running. So no one loves him, he can't run to take advantage of endorphins, he's imposing on a friend because he has no place to live, and his creative career has stalled. Eventually he gets a somewhat unrewarding job in construction, and loiters in a book store on occasion. One day he sees an attractive woman shoplifting one of his books! He makes it his mission to tail her and investigate her crime, but of course he fal...

It's In You To Give: Donating Blood

The Canadian Blood Services has one of the best mottos I've ever seen: it's in you to give. So true! Only 4% of eligible donors in Canada donate blood - that's shocking considering how easy and painless it is! As somewhat nerdy teenagers, myself and some friends were excited about becoming legal adults, not so we could get legally drunk in bars, but so that we could vote and (at age 17) donate blood. My first blood donation was with some high school friends: we took the bus/LRT to the Blood Donation Centre after school. My second blood donation opportunity came when the mobile Blood Clinic came to our high school - I remember a bunch of the tough football guys passing out. I moved to regularly donating plasma during my undergraduate degree at the university (a hop, skip and a jump from the Blood Donation Centre). I didn't pass the iron level test once, so then quit near the end of my undergrad. I moved to England, and even donated once there. I moved back to Canada and...
