    , , , , , ,

    ISEKAI’D BY: Truck-Kun! Konoha Satou has a dark history. After all, she spent her teen years writing self-indulgent fantasy romance fics-like her Dark History. But since she’s become its most despicable villainess, remembering every last detail is now a matter of life-and-death. Having avoided the first couple of death flags, Satou’s suddenly left in the

    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

    Noss & Zakuro Vol. 01

    In Shadowsville, a supernatural land that exists between this world and the next, there lives a pair of spooky vampires. Well, not that spooky—the beautiful Noss (the Nosferatu) and her adopted daughter Zakuro don’t even suck human blood, since that’s gross and mean.

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.
