Just about all of them released in English right now (waiting for the next few to come in from the library. ^^)

I love Boris too. He's a sweetie. Not as fond of Ace or Blood, though.

Jordan Michaels (jemsbooks) No, not fond of Ace or Blood. The rabbit is perplexing as well. Hands down Boris is my favorite character <3

I like Julius as well. Shame that he only got one volume devoted to that love story.

I'm not sure on Peter White myself. The more I read, the more it seems like Peter's a tragic character, kinda doomed not to be with Alice despite his (somewhat obsessive) love for her. Don't want to give away too much in case you haven't come across these hints.

I read that a long time ago. I know how you feel. To this day, I don't know if I like it or not...


message 117: by Emily (new)

Emily | 6 comments what do you think of The Fault With Our Stars? I haven't read it yet, but I'm thinking about reading it.
Also Gakaun Alice is really good! I like One Piece too if you're a Naruto fan that might be a good choice for you.


message 118: by Emily (new)

Emily | 6 comments I'm not reading a-lot recently because I'm trying to work on my writing. I'm seriously addicted to manga and books, it may have become a problem. LOL. I'm not really sure how many books and manga I've read. Almost every time the book suggestions come up I've read something that they recommend. My husband thinks it's funny. I've finished my first novel and I'm almost done with my forth time editing it. It's almost gotten to the point that I'm tired of looking at it. So I guess that's about the time to send it to literary agents. While I'm on the subject, does anyone have any experience with literary agents? I've also just sent in a short story titled "Dreams of Romance" so if you want to, check it out. Earlier I sent this to a writers competition and I'm seriously nervous! Waiting for more Naruto, One Piece, and Skip Beat. I read too fast. :(


message 119: by Emily (new)

Emily | 6 comments OH! I love Fairy Tail too, I'm waiting for more.


message 120: by Emily (new)

Emily | 6 comments What is Legend about? I'm not sure I've heard of it before.


message 121: by Emily (new)

Emily | 6 comments I read Lord of Misrule. It's really good, but there were parts that made me so frustrated that I became angry. LOL Even though I was mad at what was happening, I couldn't put it down! After you read it you'll see what I mean. I won't say anymore. :)


message 122: by Anaika (last edited Aug 12, 2014 12:04PM) (new)

Anaika I just finished Strobe Edge vol.3 and it was decent. I don't like this manga as much as Ao Haru Ride though which I finished last week.I just finished Unravel Me and Fracture me. I t was a very entertaining book, but it also got on my nerves.

*SPOILERS*
It got on my nerves because Adam kept on undermining Juliette saying she was weak and couldn't protect herself, but lets be real she could kill him. I was happy that we got some JulietteXWarner moments, but then Juliette would be like oh I can't be near Adam, but then she would go against her words. Yeah I found that super irritating.

Emily | 6 comments I'm reading honey moon right now...it's cute.


message 124: by Marybeth (new)

Marybeth (narutofan14) I have read a lot of posts since my last post. This weekend i finally finished reading The Treatment (The Program, #2) by Suzanne Young and it was okay but i liked the first book better. While i am at college i will be reading Legend (Legend, #1) by Marie Lu this week while i am on break between classes. I only have a ten minute break on Monday Wednesday, and Friday and on Tuesday and Thursday i have an almost 2 hr break or something like that so since i don't have a job right now i will most likely have my lunch and read during that break at the library. At home i am reading Salvage by Alexandra Duncan and Gone (Gone, #1) by Michael Grant since they are so big i really don't want to carry them in my bookbag since i have other books to carry.

Who's not! True Narutards are waiting patiently for Naru's ending. Though I do hope this is Kishi's ultimate arc. If you're not reading the manga you should start now. Things are getting interesting with Kaguya.

Ha ha ha, sometimes, though not usually while I'm reading them. I tend to be more, "Oh yeah, remember when such-and-such happened in XYZ manga? Good times," long after the fact, and my friends will say, "That was actually ABC..."

message 141: by Ash (new)

Ash | 42 comments I am reading way too much, as usual. I always try to read too much at once & then wonder why I'm so behind on all my group reads. It has been extra difficult to read lately, however, because I have had a nasty, horible sinus infection for the past month that just will not go away, and it includes lovely sinus migraines as well. Blehhhhh! Anyway, I am reading Black Butler, Attack on Titan, just strarted Fairy Tale, just finished Sword Art Online, & as always, keeping up with the latest chapters of Pandora Hearts, Bleach & Blood Lad.


message 142: by Marybeth (new)

Marybeth (narutofan14) i am unfortunately not reading any manga right now. Mangareader.net is not working on my computer right now so i am keeping busy with watching Yu-Gi-Oh. right now i am almost done with Season 3. It's totally getting interesting. I have always been a big fan of Yu-Gi-Oh and since i never actually watched the whole series so i am now catching up. My favorite character is Seto kaiba and he is pretty much the only reason i watch the show but. I am trying to finish Asylum (Asylum, #1) by Madeleine Roux but i am having a hard time with it. I am also trying to decide between The Selection (The Selection, #1) by Kiera Cass , After the End (After the End #1) by Amy Plum and Atlantia by Ally Condie but unfortunately i am studying for a math exam that i am having tomorrow morning so i won't be making any decisions any time soon.

yeah i kind of figured that. Don't tell me anything. i will eventually get to it. I am kind of preoccupied with Yu-Gi-Oh, Full Metal Alchemist, my books, and with this week being exams, studying as well. sadly. i'd much rather be catching up on some reading and Yu-Gi-Oh. I probably wont be doing that until next week. :(
