Ayakashi Hunter’s Tainted Bride Vol. 1

This is a Cinderella story, for sure. This girl is fucked over to hell and back because of a jealous cousin vying for the hand of the next head of the family. MC gets attacked by an enormous orangutan (heavily implied to have been raped), gets marked for life (literally tainted), and then suffers abuse

Boyfriend, Sometimes Girlfriend Vol. 1

This is actually quite cute and very sapphic. Hetero sapphic? I’m fascinated by the kiss to lady dynamic and how it tries to approach the gender change. It also is more realistic about how boob are and features an in-depth bra fitting chapter which is just very nice. This is for the sapphic/bi folks out

Bride of the Death God Vol. 1

“You’re gonna die in seven days.” Most people would break down in tears upon hearing such words from the Grim Reaper himself. But when Aibi, a terminally ill teenager, is given her fate, she simply smiles, thanks him for the warning, and even calls him kind—leaving the Reaper utterly baffled. No one acknowledged their existence

Black & White: Tough Love at the Office

Shockingly intense yuri. It very much earns the Toxic Yuri tag. Two women who are so very similar compete with one another to climb up the rank in their corporate office. They absolutely hate one another’s guts and somehow this ends up in a contest to see who tops. 100% they are just into each

Be My Worst Nightmare

This third volume ends up going into another doll-dream situation, this one much more dire. Older brother bumps into a kid and starts mother hen-ing the guy, then it turns out the kid is a sex worker and has been sucking dick for attention. Needless to say, our bro ends up trying to save the

Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill Vol. 1-3

ISEKAI’D BY: Summoning! Mukouda Tsuyoshi was nothing special in modern Japan, so when he was summoned to a world of swordplay and sorcery, he thought he was ready for the adventure of a lifetime. Too bad the kingdom that summoned him only got him by mistake! Not only was he not one of the three

Welcome to the Menagerie.

Here is where M logs their media activity. Partly because Goodreads is forgettable and keeping physical logs is harder. Sometimes M writes a lot. Sometimes M doesn’t write enough. It doesn’t matter. This is just a for-fun little blog so that M can remember what they thought about whatever they watched or read or played or. Whatever.

What is M?

I read. Voraciously. I have subscriptions to those book things on digital retailers. I consume books at nearly all hours. The hours I don’t spend reading? I’m writing. I’m drawing. I have a problem. I have a problem in that I love to read things that are in the same vein repeatedly. Book journals don’t work and as much as I text my friends screenshots of book passages, it doesn’t scratch the itch. Now I’m going to be doing… tiny… tiny book reports.
