I saw this tag in The Strawberry Post and thought the questions were fun. As always, I’m pretty late in the game but here we are. 1. Adaptation Snob: Do You Always Read the Book Before You See the Movie? Not always. Whichever comes first is fine. Perhaps it depends on how invested I am…

What I Read in February 2022 – A month for Shoujo and Josei Manga
I could probably read a couple of articles and write, “Here’s what I read this month!” but I know nothing would come out of it. Apart from what’s going on in my country (elections–not my favorite topic to talk nor write about) or in Ukraine and Russia (I’m not equipped to broach this subject), I…

What I read in January 2022
It’s been a while since I did this, I even forgot how to do it. After my December project fiasco, I decided to just take a break (as if I haven’t been doing that in a while) and just recalibrate. There are moments when a person needs to have a soliloquy and ask himself about…
