I heard about Akira through a friend a few months back but had put off reading it for a while. But I was surprised to find that, after I read the first volume, the same author also made Domu: A Child's Dream, which is one of my favorite horror/sci-fi manga ever.

I read the first chapter of Domu yesterday actually. I meant to look up when it came out, before or after Akira but have yet to do so. It seems like an earlier work to me, but interesting nonetheless.

Fingersmith was an awesome book. Did you like it?

I am liking it, although I am still quite near the beginning of the book right now. The main character has been trained for her "maid" job, she's gotten off the train and is headed to the rich girl's mansion. I am excited to see what is going to happen next once she gets there.

Becky | 99 comments Its really good I want to read more of her books. There is also a bbc series of Fingersmith, it's really good. The book doesn't disappoint in my opinion.

Lára  | 185 comments Started with two new manga series:
悪魔とラブソング 1
Nabari No Ou, Vol. 2 (already read the 1st one)

and finishing 魔界王子 Makai Ōji: Devils and Realist

I´m on 魔界王子 devils and realist 9 Makai Ouji Devils and Realist 9 .
Such an interesting manga. Really wasn´t expecting it´ll keep me until the (almost) end. I was almost sure I won´t get past Vol 4 :D I might even consider watching an anime!
It´s a truly nice surprise ^^

I just finished the book - - - - So many plot twists! And I absolutely love that she refers back to small off-handed comments 250 pages later, more than once. The haphazard chain of events after part one all the way to the end were quite cleverly executed, I really did enjoy this book thoroughly.

I also previously read her Tipping the Velvet about a month ago; I really liked it although I must admit the story made me quite sad for some time because the story is so bittersweet. I am going to read her The Night Watch next.


message 309: by Lára (new)

Lára  | 185 comments Except A Devil and Her Love Song (a great manga!) I´m now re/reading Vampire Knight. I took some quizzes about it and in every single one got 9/10 correct answers. That´s unacceptable! I must fix this -.-

I haven't read Tipping the Velvet, but saw the Bbc series which was good. Fingersmith was amazing, Waters is an amazing writer.

Marybeth (narutofan14) I was finally able to finish up some books that i was reading last week and now i am reading Deception (Defiance, #2) by C.J. Redwine and The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender by Leslye Walton . I am also re-watching and reading Vampire knight and trying to finish up Season 4 of Yu-gi-oh but it is slow going.

message 315: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm reading Shingeki no Kyojin, Tokyo Ghoul: Re, and Kuroshitsuji. It's so agonizing to wait for new chapters!!! But SnK is updating in a few days, I'm so excited. :D


message 316: by Lára (new)

Lára  | 185 comments Re/reading Kuroshitsuji. Missed Sebastian, Undertaker and all of the other characters. Besides the manga is so funny that I just had to get back to it. Sebastian´s face expressions are hilarious.

They are!! XD I love the part where they're just starting out and Ciel pours his tea into Seb's hands, haha.


message 318: by Marybeth (new)

Marybeth (narutofan14) I finished The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender by Leslye Walton and didn't really like it that much. i am now reading The 5th Wave (The Fifth Wave, #1) by Rick Yancey which i am enjoying and hope to have finished by the end of next week so i can get on to my other books during my spring break. I also started Shiver (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater this morning which is a reread for me.


message 320: by Lára (last edited Mar 06, 2015 03:00PM) (new)

Lára  | 185 comments Haha Kuroshitsuji surely is an entertaining manga.
Volume 15 - Sebastian working as a priest. Must be a tough time to call a demon for support. Hilarious, I approve!

and I´m really starting to like Soma more than any other character (excluding Undertaker and Sebastian, those two are still my favourites), coming to school on an elephant and all - very amusing.

also, the goth guy, Violet, is gorgeous ;)

A priest? I thought Seb was a teacher.

Uh huh yes, he teaches Ethics as a main subject, but he also works as a priest. ^^
It´s even shown that he confessed one of the boys that were bullied to do Edgar Redmond flag´s (Maurice Cole) work and it´s even shown that people can usually find him in chapel. I don´t think Yen Press translated it as a priest, I think it was a pastor or something like that

I don't think he was a priest there, I mean, anyone can confess to anyone in a confession box, right?
