A Man and His Cat 1 | Umi Sakurai

I was across the country visiting family for a few days and when I returned I was exhausted but wanted to start on #14books14weeks so I picked this one off of my stack. I have never read manga before and heard such great things about this title. It was definitely cute but I won‘t be reading the rest of the series. Light pick.

Jas16 @bette My copy is a little battered but I would be happy to send it to you if you would like. 2d
Bette You are so kind. Thank you for the offer but a friend gifted it to me. I completely agreed with your review: it was fine, but I won‘t be continuing the series. Thanks again. 😊 2d

I'm so happy to be reading the next in the series. This time Kanda and his friend rescue a cat from a dilapidated building. However, Fukumaru is not liking the new cat and they are fighting each other. Will the cats get along? Love the graphics and the story. Looking forward to reading the next one.

On the fence on this one. I honestly value the creativity and the world building, but on that last note, I feel something is missing. It's like a series of disconnected events. I'll read the other books in the series to see if they satisfy me more.

Talking about satisfaction... I'll enjoy a nice cup of green tea, with a delicious tart... Miam !

I love how in the opener, Anya has low key been helping them out so much without saying anything or giving anything away so I'm wondering if at any point the adults will figure it out.

Yor is amazing and the fact that we see her in action, continuing from last volume, is fantastic as she gets her continued moment to showcase her skills, when most of the volumes have all been Twilight.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4.5/5)

Just as I wasn‘t a fan of Nightfall‘s plotting against Yor, I disliked Becky‘s attempted home-wrecking even more. This volume was still lots of fun, and the chapter focusing on Bond was definitely the best part of this book!

Didn't love either of these. Seaside Stranger drags for me and I don't love that both of the men are in their 20s but look like they're in their mid teens in the drawings. Tamon's B-Side was cute for several volumes but it's getting a little TOO dramatic and repetitive. Which is fine, it's just not for me.

Closing the book, she lay down on the bed. A day well spent is a life well lived. Thinking about the line she‘d read somewhere, she would drift off to sleep.

1: I do have my own little library now. But too many to count.
2: tagged above. I love the Sarah Scribbles series. They're very relatable.

After cleaning pretty much the whole house, I deserve coffee + some reading time.
But before reading, here's a short review for tagged and pictured book: I still very much enjoy this series. The 3rd book is quite entertaining, I like keeping on learning about art, about Japanese art school systems. Plus, love to see the progress of the main character. It's really great to see the main character's journey and resilience.
