(Abu)Normal Ch. 1-20
I’m fascinated by this manga. Here we have Eiko Abu who studies the people around her with an intense fervor in order to become closer to what people would consider normal. It’s her hobby and what she strives to do in everything… however, only knowing the interpretation of normal from others, she doesn’t possess the…

The Prince in the Basement
Do you need any more reason? Aside from the fact that this is an extremely Trans Tale.

The Stepford Wives
For Joanna, her husband, Walter, and their children, the move to beautiful Stepford seems almost too good to be true. It is. For behind the town’s idyllic facade lies a terrible secret—a secret so shattering that no one who encounters it will ever be the same. At once a masterpiece of psychological suspense and a…

I May Be a Guild Receptionist, but I’ll Solo Any Boss to Clock Out on Time
Bro, so, uh. This opening has absolutely no reason to go this hard. It legitimately looks better than the actual episodes. I. I admittedly. Have just sat and watched it a few times. The fuckin dinosaur and everything. Honestly, I really want to read the manga now because I. I want to see what else……

The Descent
I’ve seen this one a few times, actually, so I rewatched it because I don’t think I ever saw the Descent 2 and wanted to revisit it. I remember young me, 12 years old, thinking, oh god. Juno is hot. It’s a good movie, led by an all-female cast. I love cave creature movies and…

Why Don’t You Eat Me, My Dear Wolf?
I threw the smut tag on here but it’s not until the final chapter (thankfully). This is a really soft, gentle manga.

Outbride: Beauty and the Beasts 1
ISEKAI’D BY: Truck-Kun! Noel is endgame for me. That said, I totally think Mashiro reacts appropriately to being resurrected to be a breeder with four dudes, one of which tries to fuck her like, right away, until another one barges in and basically says, “that’s not fair, bro, we gotta talk about who gets her…

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.
