Man, Dandadan always finds new ways to up the ante, I’ll give it that! Dandadan Vol. 12 is a heavy-hitting volume that isn’t afraid to push each character to their limit. There’s an alien invasion in the works, everyone is at their limit, and both grandmas are too far away to help. That could spell disaster, right?
Spy x Family is one of those series I can count on to cheer me up, and Spy x Family Vol. 14 is no exception. I kid you not, this volume had me laughing out loud, especially when it came to taking a closer look at Anya’s grades. Also, can we all agree that Mr. Henderson would (probably) approve of this cover?
So, I recently discovered a magical series called Secrets of the Silent Witch, and I am hooked. I started by watching all of the anime currently available, then started reading the manga. Then I decided that I actually wanted to read the light novels, since there’s far more of that. So yeah, I’m hooked. No turning back now.
Every series needs a volume or two that wrap up previous plots, and for Witch Hat Atelier, that’s volume 13. That’s not a bad thing, as a lot has been going on. This volume helps to wrap up some loose ends from the current arc, while driving home the dangers of forbidden magic (duh).
Have I mentioned how I’ve recently become obsessed with Secrets of the Silent Witch? I first got addicted through the anime, but have since started reading both the manga and the light novels. It’s that good of a series, I promise.

I have been a huge fan of The Apothecary Diaries since I picked up the first manga volume, just in time to get caught up before the anime aired. Now I’m stuck waiting for the next volume and season to drop, so I decided to dive headfirst into the Light Novels.
Whew. After that cliffhanger ending, I was biting my nails while waiting for Spy x Family Vol. 13! It was a rough wait, but it was pretty worth it. This volume quickly wraps up all that tension before throwing readers into a few slice-of-life style chapters, which is a refreshing break from all the rushing around.
I wanted to love Kaina of the Great Snow Sea Vol. 1. The title and cover made it look like this story would be my ally. While I agree it has a lot of potential, it failed to suck me in before I finished the first volume.
Every time I dive back into this series, I’m reminded of why I love it. My Next Life as a Villainess is such a silly and lighthearted series. Even while Katarina is dodging Doom Flags, it never feels like the world is actually going to fall apart.
