Once again, another great little novel in the Chibi Vampire saga. I continue to enjoy this series and really recommend it to others. A great little comedy with a little twist.

I continue to enjoy reading this series. I wish I could have had them all in a row and finish them in one great read. I now want to really continue on with this series and even check out the anime.

bookshelves: manga, youngadult
This story was most interesting. I also enjoyed all of the historical aspects to it as well. I really did not know that much about the Meiji period and find it fascinating to learn more about it. The character development is great and I really can't wait to learn more about Kenshin. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/24125695 to: Bleach, Vol. 3: Memories in the Rain (Paperback) by Tite Kubo
bookshelves: manga, youngadult
The continuing saga that is Bleach continues to intrigue me. This particular story was sad but revealing. The emotions that go into each of these stories is apparent and makes me want to continue to read the entire series. This really is a great series that everyone should read. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/24125706 to: Chibi Vampire Volume 2 (Paperback) by Yuna Kagesaki

Another cute installment in the Karin saga. It is obvious that there is something between Kenta and Karin, but how long will it take them to figure it out. This really is a cute and humorous little series. I highly recommend it. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/24125983 to: The Dreaming, #1 (Paperback) by Queenie Chan
bookshelves: manga, youngadult
This was a most interesting manga. First of all, it was set in Australia in the bush. Not only is the location different from most manga, but the story too was different. It was eerie, but vastly fascinating. Basically, the story revolves around mysterious disappearances at a boarding school in the middle of nowhere. I did guess some elements, but I really am most interested to see where this story goes.

bookshelves: manga
Another interesting installment to the Hellsing tale. The story gets more bizarre as time goes on. I am intrigued to see where the rest of the story will go. The artwork is interesting, but sometimes difficult to follow. All in all, a most different tale that you should read.
