pickBest volume yet in this series!
Kankei finds an inner strength he didn't know he had when he is kidnapped and tortured. He has so much character development in these 200+ pages. This one is gruesome, full of action, but still packed with an excellent story as well.

Wow! So much story, and so many new characters are introduced in this volume. We learn a lot more about the Ghoul Investigators, or doves, which is how we meet Juzoo. She's featured on the cover and is so delightfully weird. 😁
Each new installment gets better and better.
pickI should do something today besides just binging this manga, but most things can just wait until tomorrow, right? 😉

Long lost family shows up in this volume. We start to learn more about the different wards, or areas where Ghouls live, and how each has its own pros and cons. This one has more backstory than action, which I can appreciate because the story is getting more complex.
pickVolume 3 picks up right where the action ended in the second one. Kankei makes a choice that could change things for him, but when Hinami needs support, it makes the decision easier for Kankei. Still torn between the human and ghoul worlds, Kankei is starting to learn what he must do to keep his friends safe.
Another great installment with some brutal battles.

The suspense just keeps building! Kaneki is torn between two worlds and trying to figure out how to embrace his new life. I loved the way this one ended.
This series has more than horror and violence. There are themes of acceptance, found family, and social injustices.

Some of the teens at my library recommended this horror manga to me and I'm so glad they did! This first volume opens with a bang. Ghouls live among humans, but must eat human flesh to survive. But what happens if someone is half human, half ghoul?
Love the action and the characters so far. Plus, the artwork is really well done.
pickI honestly don‘t know how to review this book - loved the use of Chinese & Malaysian mythology juxtaposed with Taylor Swift playing on the radio but felt like I was missing some information (like accidentally reading a sequel first - but I didn‘t) but the overall vibe was great - and I‘m interested in seeing if Rupert manages to pay off his debts.
A thousand traumas you say…
So far my decision to borrow whatever Libby had by Cassandra Khaw is going marvellously.
