Welcome to Litsy!

This was cute, a bit messy for me but cute. And I say messy because a lot happened but there was no sense of time so I didn't and couldn't figure out how much time had passed from one chapter to the next to try have time or a plot.

Not sure if I want to continue the rest of the series but this was cute and fun.

I love Sarah Scribbles - and I don‘t think that‘s ever going to change… it‘s the millennial humour that makes me chuckle! A gift to have spent a decade watching Sarah hone her craft - I especially enjoyed her essays in the back about her journey into adulthood and her experiences as an comic artist in a male dominated field (and how that‘s changed over the years).

🤣

The struggle is real

Couldn‘t believe my eyes when I saw this on the new book display - I thought it‘d be reserved! I‘m happy to be the first reader 🤩

I wanted another slice of life like Our Not So Lonely Planet or Confessions of a Shy Baker with tons of food illustrations (because I love them 😍) and a hint of romance, and that‘s exactly what I got! We also get a look at the characters‘ insecurities and their hopes and fears for the future, which adds a nice dimension as well. Bonus points for including recipes in each chapter! #Manga #SliceOfLife #Food

Excellent manga that tells a powerful, often heartbreaking, story about bullying, in its various forms from perpetrator to bystander, and its lasting effects. When a young man bullied a classmate in elementary school because she couldn‘t hear, he changed her life as well as his. Now in high school he regrets what he, and others did, and hopes to make things right. Other themes include suicidal thoughts, forgiveness, jealousy, & guilt. Great read.

What a sweet slice of life, depicting a mother watching her son work through the intricacies of figuring out his identity. She doesn‘t push or pull or try to direct him one way or another. Even though it seems pretty clear where he‘ll end up. She just sets up a welcoming place for him to land when he gets there. I LOVED it! 🥰

This was pretty dang cute. The KITTENS 🥺 There are only three volumes in this series (at least according to Goodreads) so I will finish it up sharpish. Thanks @JenlovesJT47 for the rec 😻
