Thor Vol. 1: The Goddess of Thunder
RECOMMENDED: Thor Vol. 1: The Goddess of Thunder is $3.99 at Amazon and Comixology! This volume contains issues 1-5. Carrie really liked this collection and gave it an A:
This series is thoughtful and emotional and feminist and it’s also silly and fun and insane. I just dropped a ridiculous amount of money on more Thor comics and I regret only that there aren’t more of them.
Mjolnir lies on the moon, unable to be lifted! Something dark has befallen the God of Thunder, leaving him unworthy for the first time ever! But when Frost Giants invade Earth, the hammer will be lifted – and a mysterious woman will be transformed into an all-new version of the mighty Thor! Who is this new Goddess of Thunder? Not even Odin knows…but she may be Earth’s only hope against the Frost Giants! Get ready for a Thor like you’ve never seen before, as this all-new heroine takes Midgard by storm! Plus: the Odinson clearly doesn’t like that someone else is holding his hammer…it’s Thor vs. Thor! And Odin, desperate to see Mjolnir returned, will call on some very dangerous, very unexpected allies. It’s a bold new chapter in the storied history of Thor!

Blaze by Susan Johnson is $1.99 at Amazon! This was published in 1986, so expect a bit of old skool crazysauce. Also, what is the heroine wearing? It looks like moss. Readers say the hero and heroine had loads of chemistry, while other readers found some of the plot to be a bit unbelievable.
In her attempts to persuade Jon Hazard Black, the Harvard-educated son of an Absarokee chief, to sell his land claim to her father, Boston heiress Blaze Braddock unwittingly captures Black’s heart with her fiery spirit.
A CAPTIVE OF LOVE…
The gold rush sparked a new American dream for those who staked their claims in the rich soil of undeveloped Indian territories. To Blaze Braddock, beautiful, pampered daughter of a millionaire, it was a chance to flee stifling codes of Boston society. But when Jon Hazard Black, a proud young Absarokee chief, challenged her father’s land claim, Blaze was swept up in a storm of passions she had never before even imagined.
Taken hostage by the Indian warrior, Blaze Braddock surrendered to the dreams of a defiant people — and found love in the arms of a man who had sworn to be her enemy…

The Wager by Rachel Van Dyken is $1.99 at Amazon! This is a contemporary romance with a hero who is trying to make things right after screwing things up. I’m also really digging the heroine’s shoes on the cover. Readers felt the hero’s promiscuous characterization was a bit over the top, while others loved his meddling grandma!
Lose a bet, lose your heart…
What is it about a junior-high crush that can send an otherwise intelligent woman into a tailspin? TV reporter Char Lynn wishes she knew. Jake Titus is too rich, too handsome, too arrogant: a trifecta that once lured Char into the best night-and worst morning-after-of her life. Now they’ve been thrown together in a wedding party. It’s awkward, but survivable . . . until Jake stops acting like a jerk, and starts acting like the man she’d always hoped he could be.
If watching your brother marry your best friend is weird, being attracted to your best friend’s other best friend is downright bizarre. Unfortunately for Jake, Char hasn’t forgotten how he once tossed her aside. Worse still, Jake’s already-nutty grandma is even crazier about Char. Cue meet-cute shenanigans and all manner of meddling, and somehow, Jake’s falling. For Char. Now all he has to do is make her believe it . . .

The Taco Cleanse is $1.99! This is a taco cookbook with a vegan twist. I’m super interested in this cookbook because I will never not eat a taco. It’s not really a cleanse; more like a cheeky nod to healthy eating cookbooks. But readers who aren’t vegan or vegetarian like how easy it is to sub in their favorite meat and cheese products.
Prevent or reverse taco deficiency. Get that fresh taco-y feeling with over 75 seriously tasty vegan recipes.
Tired of the same old cleanse? Instead of feeling rejuvenated are you feeling depleted, anxious, and cranky? (Not to mention . . . hungry?) A group of vegan taco scientists in Austin, Texas, know just how you feel, and now reveal their one-of-a-kind cleansing journey that anybody can follow and stick to—the Taco Cleanse. While the typical cleanse works by depriving you of your favorite foods, the plant-based Taco Cleanse rewards your body with what it naturally craves: tortillas, refried beans, guacamole!
Begin with a breakfast taco, the most important taco of the day. Even if you do nothing else, your mood will brighten in just 24 hours. Keep eating tacos and within a week your outlook will be noticeably improved. After 30 days, cleansers report lasting benefits—and you will, too!
The Taco Cleanse shows you:
How to make everything from the tortilla—flour, corn, and waffle (!)—to the thirst-quenching “Supplements” (margaritas and other beverages) that best complement your tacos
What to put in the tortilla— beer-battered portobellos, mac and cheese, even tater tots
How to remake popular staples like picadillo, tacos al pastor, carne guisada, and fish tacos using plants instead of, well, animals.The Taco Cleanse is cheap, easy, and delicious. Its recipes are authentically Austin, and are sometimes even inspired by Mexico, where the taco was first created. Everything tastes better folded (exactly once) into a tortilla. Just eat one or more tacos at every meal, adding margaritas as necessary. It’s that simple.

I had Blaze when it was new … I remember the crazysauce (which the author tended to bring).
Good lord, I loved those old skool Susan Johnson books when I was a teen! They were so freaking dirty and fun!
Has anyone read the new Thor? Does it have the same terrible font as the old one? I kind of hope it does so I’m not tempted by a new comic addiction…
I don’t think Blaze is wearing moss. It’s either a very elderly muppet, or many bothans.
