    Rogue Untouched is a novel imaging what teenage Rogue’s life was like before she joined X-Men. Rogue has always been a favorite of mine since I was a kid. And I loved young adult Rogue in this. It’s how I always imagined she would have been as a teen and young adult. I wish this book has existed when I was a teen as the Rogue I got as a teen with the movies was a bit of a letdown. But this book made up for that.

Not to mention a certain Cajun. I also loved seeing Gambit before the X-Men as well. On the run from the thieves and assassin guilds. He’s not gambit in this one he’s more Remy but still the same flirty Cajun and I love it. As Rogue and Gambit have always been one of my favorite ships since before, I knew what a ship was.

This one wraps up the storyline but it does leave it open for more.

Black Widow: Forever Red review

Rating: 4.5 stars

I’ve literally had Black Widow Forever Red by Margaret Stohl on my shelf for five years. My mom bought the book for me when it came out in 2015 because Black Widow is my favorite Marvel character I’ve always loved her comics. It set on my shelf and I forgot about it. But after watching the MCU in chronological order during the shutdown and not liking the ending I wanted more marvel and more black widow and I finally picked this up and I was not disappointed.

Black Widow Forever Red gave me all the a Black Widow feels, it was prefect. I loved the bit of back story we got of hers. There’s a twist in this book that i didn’t see coming. A twist I don’t remember from the comics.

    

One of my favorite lines from the book is about Natasha having friends in low places and I actually guessed the friend she was talking about but if you’re a marvel fan it’s one that easy to figure out.

I am looking forward to the Second book in the series and plan on picking that one up soon.
