Comic & Manga Reviews
Lavender Clouds is a collection of slice-of-life comics centered around mental health and overall well-being. It's one of those comic collections that hits hard for those who have ever felt this way. In that sense, I feel like this book couldn't be more timely (thanks, 2020).
I’ll confess that I’m still extremely curious to see where Solo Leveling will take us. What heights will Jinwoo reach before the end - and what event signals the end, for that matter? That made me eager to dive into Solo Leveling Vol. 5.
The Marked #6 starts a whole new plot arc in this series of magic and deception. Still reeling from the loss of their comrades, the surviving Marked begin a discussion – of the past. It is not the story you might expect to hear, either.
Giga Town: The Guide to Manga Iconography is exactly what the title promises – a collection of guides and informative pages, all about the different symbols and icons used within manga. All while using cute creatures to help illustrate the point!
Yes! I fell in love with The Glass Scientists thanks to volume one, so I am thrilled to have gotten my greedy little hands on The Glass Scientists Vol. 2. It is everything I could have hoped for – and quite possibly more.
The Marked #5 wraps up the first plot arc and volume of the series, and it does so with gusto. The Marked portrays the darker sides of magic. Where temptation and corruption can take root. Yet there is always a shining beacon, even in a series like this.
Navigating With You is not much what I was expecting, but it was a delight to read. It's the story of two passionate young women with vast dreams and a commitment to finding something they love.
Top Ten Tuesday: Isekai
I've been reading Poorly Drawn Lines here and there for what feels like ages (I know, I need to be better at staying up with the comics), so I was excited to get my hands on Hope It All Works Out!
What would you do if you were trapped in the last dating sim you played? Depending on the difficulty, you'd probably panic, right? I know I would (and I don't even play dating sims!). Penelope is proving her mettle in Villains Are Destined to Die Vol. 2, as she tackles each challenge thrown her way.
