Star Wars: Crimson empire
It's been a very long time since the last time I read Star Wars comics and I enjoyed reading again comics from that universe. This book is the last chapter of the Dark Empire saga and of Emperor Palpatine story after the last movie. The usual heros (Like, Lia or Han) are not there but the story is very enjoyable. The art is great.
Doctor Who: The only good dalek
This the 1st Doctor Who graphic novel from BBC books. I was aware of it till it landed on my local comics shop shelf. This is also the 1st 11th Doctor graphic novel. The story is great. A scientis succeed in gentically turning a Dalek into a good Dalek. The Daleks are are intent to extarminate this good Dalek which they see as an abomination. The art is also great. Crossing fingers for more Doctor Who graphic novels from BBc books :)
Doctor Who: annual 2010 + #13-16
The annual includes 4 stories. 2 were cute, 1 I didn't understand at all and the 4th was continuation of the story from the regular issues. Issues 13-16 are the last arc in the story. In the end we learn that the doctor's companion who dies and somehow becamea 5th dimenssion being, in the one behind everything that happend it can be created. A very good Doctor Who story.
Night world vol.1 by LJ Smith
This volume includes 3 books: Secret vampire, Daughters of darkness & Spell binder.
I love LJ Smith writing. It's easy and fun to read. The idea in Night World is the same as in The Vampire Diaries. Vampires, Werewolfs (hello Prof. Lupin), witches and other magical people are leaving among us humans, look at us a vermin and food, all that without our knowledge. In all 3 books teenage magical people fall in love with human teenagers, discover that humans are people after all and start to live not according to the harsh rules of the "night world". The stories are cute. I have only 2 remarks:
1. I wish there were more stories about each couple telling what happened to them after they got together.
2. Note to self: don't read more then 1 book at a time or they astart looking the same.
Other that I'm looking forward to getting the next 2 volumes.
Wexford: The monster in the box
Boring !!! I love Brit detective stories but this book is boring. in the 1st half Wexford tells Burdon his suspicions since he was a rookie that Eric Targo murdered 2 people, and remembers his early love life. The 1st new body appears only in the 2nd half and there is no mystery who the murderer is. All this is mingled with the life of Muslims in the UK. So not interesting. The most annoying thing is that Jewish cop Hanna who goes out of her way to be pro-Muslim, as if the same muslims don't see her as an infedil and want her dead because she is Jewish. GRRRRRR

Smallville: Dragon
I like the Superman story very much but don't read the comics because they are endless and interconnected with other comic characters. I'm reading enough different comics titles as it is. The Smallville serie is great and so are the books. In this book Clark is still in highschool secretly pinning over Lana. Drinking mint tea laced with kriptonite dust fullfil his wish to be with Lana, but makes him forget who he realy is and loose his alien powers. Luckily he regains his memory in the 90th minute and isa ble to save Lana from an ex-con turned into a lizard man by the same water that affected Clark.
When lightening strike by Meg Cabot
This is the 1st book in the 1-800-WHERE-R-YOU series telling the adventures of Jess Mastriani from the moment she was strike by a lightening and started dreaming about the where abouts of missing people. In the TV show 1-800-missing that was based on characters from the book, Jess already graduated from hughschool and joined the FBI. In the book she is still in highschool and being an FBI agent is the last thing on her mind. A very enjoyable read.
