Blue Moon by Laurel K. Hamiltion
B +
Thoughts: The last book in the series that Richard had any real development in my opinion, which makes me sad because he used to be a great characters and I loved the dynamic he Anita, ad other characters had.
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bront
A -
Thoughts: I've been trying to get back into reading older classic types books, and this book was my first attempt. I throughly enjoyed this book after I threw everything that make to cheesy and overdone in contemporary romance, and now having a burning desire to read Price and Prejudice.
Blame It on Paris by Jennifer Greene
C-
Thoughts: Terrible book I got through a club. Romance that that stretches itself beyond all belief and leads you with a sour taste in your mouth.
Doubt! Vol 1-6 by Izumi Kaneyoshi
A
Thoughts: One of my favorite shoujo mangas that loves to make fun of itself and the genre with wit, action, and silliness.
Model Vol. 1-6 by So-young Lee
B+
Thoughts: Dark, gothic Korean comic about a vampire, and artist, and the drama and anguish that ensue. The artwork is lovely and the story is interesting, but having read it a few times Im going to say that it's staying power is dimming for me at least.
Shout Out Loud! Vol. 1-5 by Satosumi Takaguchi
A-
Thoughts: A youthful voice actor father and his newly discovered hockey oriented son learn to deal with each other and their changing relationships with the people around them. Having read this series before I was happy to see that it hadn't lost whatever it was that made me read it in the first place. Another bl series I might add o my collection eventually.
Fushigi Yugi Vol. 1-6 by Yuu Watase
A-
Thoughts:One of Yuu Watase's older series with her signature style and humor and a wonderful read... if you aren't already sick of her work yet. Stronger then Imadoki, Alice 19th, and Absolute Boyfriend, FY and Ceres are my two favorite works by this artist (though if you're going to watch an anime adaption, don't touch Ceres with a ten foot pole, it's HORRIBLE).
Kankan no Madonna Vol. 1-3 by Chiho Saito
A-
Thoughts: As a huge fan of Saito (the same artist that drew Utena) I was thrilled to see she had a series set in the renaissance and after reading the first chapter was completely hooked.
Blood+ Vol. 1-2 by Asuka Katsura
A
Thoughts: Having just watched the compete 50 episode anime I was curious to see if there was a manga version. Though different then the anime it had many of the same action and hycolicical elements that sucked me in in the first place and I can't wait to read more.
Dear Mine Vol. 1-4 by Shigeru Takao
B+
Thoughts: Generic shoujo fluff series that still makes me smile.
Dogla+Magla Vol. 1 by Tarako Kotobuki
A+
Amaaazing series by one of my now all time favorite mangakas. The art is gorgeous, the action keeps the pages turning, and the plot twists leave you breathless.
Fake Vol. 1-7 by Sanami Matoh
A
Thoughts: One of my all time favorite bl series with plenty of action and romance all rolled into one
Angel Sanctuary Vol. 1 by Kaori Yuki
A
Thoughts: Have been meaning to read this manag for awhile as I have the first three episodes on tape. The story and artwork are amazingly detailed and I'm so happy I'm finally getting around to reading it <3
Cantarella Vol. 1-7 by You Higuri
A-
Thoughts: Don't like the generic artwork fool you, this series has alot more depth then meets the eye and where I've been forced to stop reading... man oh man, can you say clifhanger?!
After School Nightmare Vol. 1-5 by Setona Mizushiro
B+
Thoughts: Recammended by a friend and a very intersting read.
Fire And Ice by Anne Stuart
A-
Thoughts: Newest addition to this kickass series and signifigantly better then the last book, which I have a hard time remembering.
Our Bodies Ourselves by Boston's Women's Health Book Collective
A
Thoughts: Text for my Womans Images and Realites class filled with heartwrentching stories, tons of information, and something I'll def be keeping around for years to come.
Beloved Lord by Mallory Burgess
B-
Thoughts: Third book in the Beloved series, my least favorite of the 4, mostly because it made me dislike so many characters that had been biut up in the earlier books.
Beloved Heart by Mallory Burgess
A-
Thoughts: Conclusion to the series set many generations in the future. Took me awhile toi get into the book but the second half was wonderfukl and I loved how it tied everything together. Glad I made the effort to read till the end of this series.
Wild Adaptor Vol. 1-3 by Kazuya Minekura
B+
Thoughts: By the same artist that did Seiyuki with her signature style and humor. A good read though by no means her best work.
Vampire Knight Vol. 1-3 by Matsuri Hino
B- to a C
Thoughts: The series started out good but nothing seems to happen and I complete;y lost all intersted after finishing volume 3.
...the anime is also aweful. Don't watch it.
