My cover collage from goodreads for the monthe of May. Tough month and I found reading manga and comic type books was just easier to manage. Don't think I read a single book that didn't have pictures in it this month! Mostly digital. Fantastic how much we can read on out phones nowadays 📚💙

My spouse saw a dear by the river on the way to work and sent me a picture. Never seen one in town like this

I planted some peas for the first time ever. Wee one helped. Older one just wants to see them creep and swirl on the trellis

Finished reading all 10 volumes of Happy Marriage?!, by Maki Enjōji. Manga. Romance. It was not good. Not bad enough to stop reading it, but not good. He is neglectful and abusive and she sits around thinking "he's such a jerk, but I love him" like it's normal 📚💙

I'm having two new windows put in today and one of the workmen keeps calling me "pal". 😳 This has never happened to me before. What do I do? 🤦‍♀️

The dietician has proclaimed I must keep a record of two weeks of foods, drinks, activities, and stresses with times to determine what it wrong with my guts. After the first day, I have dubbed this my Captain's Log. Much to my spouse's amusement 😅

Finished reading all 12 volumes if Yakuza Lover, by Nozomi Mino. Manga. Romance. Read on the Viz Media website. Very sexy read. The last few books were less sexy and more story progression, but enjoyed the overall story. 🌶📚💙

So, I've been trying out tracking my reading this year to see what all the fuss is about. I have now come across 2 draw backs: 1. It doesn't count books you didn't finish, not even the pages 2. It doesn't count rereading, unless it's a different edition 📚💙

I finished reading all 9 volumes of My Special One, by Momoko Koda. Manga. Romance. If you can get passed the ick of the age gap, it's fine. It switches to a different couple halfway through and they're both adults. That helped 💙📚

I finished reading the first 11 volumes of So Cute It Hurts, by Go Ikeyamada. Manga. Romance. Read on the Viz Media app. There are 4 more books after this, but they are not on the app. Boo. The first few books were a bit too silly, but the story eventually settled in some sweetness 💙📚

I finished reading the first 9 volumes of Insomniacs After School, by Makoto Ojiro. Manga. Romance. Read on the Viz Media app. They don't have the next 20 chapters, but have more after that. I don't want to skip anything so I'll stop there. The art is so full & dense. The story, gentle & poignant 💙📚

Just finished reading book 1 of My Dress-Up Darling, by Shinichi Fukuda. Manga. Romance. I liked the anime so my spouse got me the book as a surprise gift. It's clear the anime is very faithful to the book 💙📚

I read a ridiculous amount of manga in April. A few regular novels, but mostly manga. I'm going to run out of those eventually. The apps I've been using to read them only have so many 💙📚

I finished reading all 8 volumes of Blue Flag, by Kaito. Manga. Romance. Read on the Shonen Jump app. This was not a feel good story. A lot of agonising and a fair bit of preaching. I like my romance with more love than agony in it 💙📚

Just finished reading all 13 volumes of Ao Haru Ride, by Io Sakisaka. Manga. Romance. Read on the Viz Media App. It was good enough to read it all, but I reached the end feeling rather unsatisfied with it all. Probably just me. 💙📚

I finished reading all 12 volumes of Kubo Won't Let Me Be Invisible, by Nene Yukimori. Manga. Read it on the Shonen Jump app. The first 5 books were a mix of raunchy, comedy, and sweetness. The story settled into the sweetness after that. 💙📚
