While I wouldn‘t say these books completely knocked my socks off, they were sweet and cute and charming. I mean, come on, vegetable people! 😍 And the art—utterly adorable! #bookblanket

Really well done. The art was beautiful and colorful. The story was sophisticated. About high school age characters but had a grown-up feel to it. The paternal grandma was very funny. Jae‘s uncle was funny, too. I predicted Jae would be the one she ended up with. Although the hate-to-love trope gets annoying. Lots of aha moments. Lovely ending.

I was hoping to post this yesterday to keep on track with my #100DayProject2025, but after I sprained my ankle🙄, my day kinda went off the rails. Anyway, this was a sweet story about a cat and a man, both in need of each other, and their early days together. I haven‘t read manga in a while and it took me a minute to get the hang of it again! But once I did, I really enjoyed this. Looking forward to the next in the series. 💜🐾 3/50

MemoirsForMe Oh my! Hope your sprain is getting better. I guess all that dancing on tables after retirement might not be the best idea. 😁🤭😉 2d

PurpleyPumpkin @MemoirsForMe Oh I WISH that was how it happened! It was much more prosaic, I caught the corner of a patio stone when I came down a step. Grr!!! 1d
RoyallyReading I've been noticing a rise in manga series that involve cats. My local library is full of them. I've seen at least 6 - 8 different titles with “cat“ in them 😹 1d
MemoirsForMe Whatever story you want to tell is ok by me! 😂 😉 Keep feeling better! 1d
PurpleyPumpkin @RoyallyReading How interesting! I‘ll have to look into other cat series. I started collecting these books some time ago and just got around to reading them now. 😅 I was surprised to learn that there are now 13 books in this series! I‘ve got the first 5. Lots to look forward to I guess!😁 14h

julieclair Wow! That‘s an impressive cross stitch project. 👍 I love the idea of using post-it arrows to mark your place on the chart. I need to try that. 2d

I thought the art and character designs were cool, but in terms of the story, I felt the pacing wasn't for me. We follow a comic artist who feels like their art (and life) is missing purpose, a spark, *something*. Then they encounter an alien who reveals that Earth is going to be destroyed. It's pretty much a rollercoaster of events after that. If you like fast paced stories with a *saving the world* theme, I think you'll like this.

I am late for #hyggehourReadathon. I‘m reading my #bookspin book and listening to folks in the neighborhood still setting off firecrackers. 🙄
