This was a soft pick for me. Not usually my jam but I read it for #Bookriot #ReadHander challenge (task 14) and read it in one sitting. An interesting concept, it was compelling made me think about good and evil and right and wrong.

I had such a sudden urge to reread Death Note the other day, even though I‘m not a huge manga reader and I‘ve barely thought about this since school. It just popped into my head and I flew through jt and really loved it. Maybe I need to do a whole reread?
My first manga! This series was recommended to me since I like mysteries and thrillers and I enjoyed it. The main character is a little cocky though

This is my first manga and it is taking me a bit of time getting used to the format. 🙃 Unrelated, I‘m heading to Dublin for the first time and wondered which bookstores are a must see? Anyone have some recommendations? I‘m all ears!!
This was original and I really enjoyed it. I couldn‘t quite figure out why it‘s been banned. The premise is certainly violent, but it wasn‘t at all graphic, especially for something geared towards adults. Maybe the rest of the series gets a lot creepier. #BBRCAdultSeinen/Josei #Bookspin @LibrarianRyan @TheAromaofBooks
The hubby wanted to watch a movie... he chose Death Note.

Just wanted to share some recent manga I've acquired ✨
Stopped at B&N yesterday and purchased Death Note! After watching the series on Netflix, I just knew I needed it! Have you watched or read it?
Trying my hand at manga and rewatching Schitts Creek for the millionth time and swooning over David and Patrick.
One of the best bookish gifts I have received was when someone on a litsy swap sent me a gorgeous deathnote notebook. It has ALL of the rules in the front, and names on some pages. Absolutely gorgeous! But I can‘t bring myself to write in it! (Just incase 😉)

This was my first manga, and I definitely enjoyed it. Light finds a death god's notebook and discovers that any name he writes in it causes that person to die, so he sets about creating a better world where criminals are all dead. However he also starts using this power to ensure that he won't be caught, by killing the people who come looking for him. It's interesting and really well done, and I'm having a good time.
Here's my second #tbr for the #mangafreakathon! I was trying to avoid omnibus titles but #horror ones usually are?! With these I hope to get witch, evil laugh, monster, fav. villain, moon, forest, mask, running, and knife? Hmm, let's see #spooktober
Starting an anime club at my school by the request of some students. This is my personal collection of manga... I need some kid friendly recommendations (age 10-14). #recommendations #manga #graphicnovels #anime #help
I finished the first volume way faster than I expected. Looks like it's helping with the reading slump 😁
Aside from a few aspects I didn't enjoy, regarding how the police are handling the Kira investigation, this was a great start. It's setting up the world pretty well and the story is very entertaining.
I'm going through a bit of a reading slump and I just picked up this manga in hopes of getting over it. The first chapter was super fun and I realized that I've forgotten many details from the anime. We'll see how it goes.
It was an awesome book read all 386 pages in 1 day
Loved it
If you like comics I would suggest it to you
Still reading part 3-4 now
Really really good! The anime is good but so far I'm liking the book better.
One thing I've become increasingly aware of is the way in which authors add information about their world. If it's done badly it can really kill my emersion in the story.
It's been so long since I read #manga but I just got an urge to do so tonight. I remember loving 'Death Note' in my early twenties, so it'll be interesting to see if it holds up a decade later.
Death Note, the original Burn book...

I see why this is so popular. After Light Yagami finds a Death Note (a notebook belonging to a Shinigami death god) everything changes. Write someone‘s name in the book & they die—either by heart attack or a method the writer suggests. Light doesn‘t want to use it for evil. No, he wants to use it for good & so starts killing off criminals on his way to building a new utopia. When he becomes the hunted things get even more complicated. A good read.
It snowed this morning, the sun set at 4:36pm and the temperature is currently 26 degrees Fahrenheit and falling so yes, I am in my pjs, under the blankets and enjoying some reading therapy. I bought my husband the complete Death Note series a year or two ago when he started getting into anime (because a book is always better!) and he loved it. This week he gave me Volume 1 and told me I should read it. The howling winds outside say, “good idea!”
I'll soon be making posts about medical journals since that seems to be all I read nowadays!! So glad to have a little time to read some fiction today! Decided to give Deathnote a try since I've heard good things.
I'm so sorry, I've fallen completely off the radar again. My job has been keeping me completely swamped lately. If it weren't for audiobooks while driving/cooking/cleaning, I'd have no time for books at all, sadly.
On the bright side, my thoughtful other half knows I've been dealing with a lot lately, so he brought me home a little pick me up gift tonight! Awesome Deathnote socks!
I hadn't read this since high school, but it's every bit as dark, clever and morally ambiguous as I remember. Glad I hung onto it all these years, even though I got rid of the vast majority of my manga collection.
Spending the evening revisiting an old favorite series. #manga
My first manga read. I wasn't expecting much from it. Thought it would be childish. But the story is nothing like that and I found the story line interesting. Overall a good experience. Hoping the next book will also live up to expectation 👍👍
Help Littens!!! So I've never read Manga before but I've read comics. This series seems really interesting and I'm contemplating buying the whole boxed set or just volume 1 first to see if I like it?
Boxed set=$65 vs vol. 1=$9
"L Do You Know Gods of Death Love Apples?" My favorite illustration so far
I finally got back into my reading groove in September!
This series has repeatedly been recommended to me. I finally got around to it, and now I wish I'd gotten to it sooner. It's off to a great start!
I have loved this series for as long as I can remember ☺️ really great psychological, crime, thriller. It really messes with your mind at times, but that's what I love about it. #deathnote #manga #mangareader #mangabooks #mangalover
This was my first manga. I must admit that I watched the Netflix movie first, but the manga is so much better! I love the dynamic between Light and Ryuk. I found the rules for using the Death Note fascinating. I will definitely continue reading this series!
Enjoying sunshine, blue skies, and Death Note this morning --- one of these things is not like the others 😊
Even though my expectations are not high, I am still looking forward to the live action adaption of Death Note (manga series) on Netflix this August 25th. I would've preferred a series rather than movie, but I'll take what I can get 👍
Here's a link to an article about what the mangaka thought about the adaption:

Deathnote
Deathgods and death apparatuses in this fantastically suspenseful manga series 💀📖🖊 👍 📚 ❤ ☺
#death #junebookbugs #deathnote #manga
Yeah, this is a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ read for me. The art is fabulous, the story is interesting, and there is never any confusion as to who is talking or the order of things. It is amazing.
Light finds a Death Note, which gives him the power to kill by simply writing a name. He begins to use it to create a better world, but will the power ultimately corrupt him?
Can't say enough, how much I love this series! ❤️❤️❤️
I can't even tell you how excited I am to finally read this! I'm giving it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ already LOL #currentlyreading #manga #supernatural
