This book was a step out of my comfort zone. I’ve never really read any thrillers or murder mysteries, though I did often watch ‘Murder She Wrote’ with my mom when I was younger. The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle (or 7 deaths if you live outside of the USA) has certainly got that same … Read more
Aaron Nakahara has been on my radar for quite some time already.

Philipp Urlich does incredible speed paintings in which he creates massive landscapes and grand story-telling situations. Check out some … Read more
