1. What are you currently reading?

nothing much tbh (just DMBJ, as always, and I've had a slow week on that) 

2. What have you recently finished reading?

• Demon Venerable Also Wants to Know vol. 1 by Cyan Wings: still love this one
• Punch Drunk Love by Moscareto: modern BL. got vol. 1 from Libby, ended up mainlining/pirating the entire webtoon.  It's not high entertainment and I wish people were nicer to Seon-woo about his quirkiness and taste but I still overall enjoyed this.
• Saiyuki vol. 2 by Kazuya Minekura: yeah I'm starting to see why this made all the then-girlies (now mostly not girlies) feral circa 2001.
• Golden Kamuy vol. 2 and 3 by Satoru Noda: this is so good
• The Man I Picked up by C. J. Michalski: this would have been better if all the short stories were set in the bar. The other short stories were weird.
• Happy Crappy Life vol. 1 by Hanada: an extremely rare DNF from me. I think trying to sell me on "slapstick comedy" when there's a huge plot line about one of the character's rape trauma being belittled, made fun of, ignored, and "well you like anal don't you," and the one half of the ship even forced the other half to apologize to his rapist. It is uh. well it sure is something. Something not even a little bit for me. Manga volumes read fast enough that I usually try to finish at least one volume even of series I intend to drop but uh. nope nope nopity nope.
• Just Like Mona Lisa vol. 7 by Tsumuji Yoshimura
• Marriage Toxin vol. 3 by Joumyaku and Mizuki Yoda
• Yona of the Dawn vol. 34 by Mizuho Kusanagi

3. What will you read next?

Novels: I've really not been feeling well, so I haven't started The Raven Scholar yet, but I really need to.

Graphic Novels (physical from the library): I Wanna Be Your Girl vol. 2 and 3 by Umi Takase

Graphic Novels (digital from Libby): I have a few things due in less than a week: I Can't Say No to the Lonely Girl vol. 1 by Kashikaze, Happy of the End vol. 1 by Ogretsu Tanaka, and Twitter Birds Never Fly vol. 2 by Kou Yoneda.
