A little bit about what you'll find reviewed here

A little bit about what you'll find reviewed on this blog: I believe the best books involve characters you wish you could read more about long after the book is finished. Recently, I've been searching for hidden gems from the past. I read mostly fiction, and I'm a bit of a prude. I don't normally enjoy books with sex or excessive language.

Who I am:
I raised two wonderful girls, and I'm super proud of them. I enjoy reading (of course), sewing, cross stitching, photography and writing. I live in the high desert portion of Washington (which I didn't know existed until my husband and I decided to move here) and have really enjoyed my time out here. I am excited to see what God has next in store for my life!

Vision and the Scarlet Witch - Steve Engelhart & Bill Mantlo

This collection has Giant-Size Avengers #4 (1974) & Vision and the Scarlet Witch #1-4 (1982).

Vision and Scarlet Witch have gotten pretty popular since the MCU and the Disney+ show. One of my daughters wanted to learn more about them, so we bought this for her for Christmas. I asked to borrow it, because I've enjoyed reading these older comics in between other books.

It was an interesting ride, but I wasn't prepared for how strange it got. The tree marriage and the encounter with the cow have really stuck with me. Maybe if I knew more of the backstory, it would've made more sense, but overall, I ended up confused. It wasn't bad, I just didn't enjoy it as much as the other collections. I believe that comes down to having more time to immerse myself in the story, and I wasn't able to do that in 125 pages.
