Gordon is low-key cheating on his pregnant wife 🫩 alright Jimbo

Also, this sentence before Chapter 3 starts:
“They’ve got him cornered.
They’ve got him outnumbered.
They’ve got him trapped.
THEY’RE IN TROUBLE.”

Batman’s so fun lol

Reading this to revisit some concepts 🤓

This is epic. Bruce has already blown up a cop car, while Gordon has beaten a dirty cop bloody and left him stripped out in the cold...

Gotham isn't for everyone 🥶

I’ve finished this issue. Waiting for other issues to be published to properly review and rate it (I don’t rate individual mangas/comics).

#1 Teen Titans:
✔️Dynamic, fun start. We got to know the characters, that all had diff personalities, and also got fan fav like Dick.
✔️ Jason’s characterization seems well done.
✔️ Curious to read more
❌ I find the art style for the faces a bit ugly ups😭

Reading this ARC and y'all, it's not very good. Hope it gets better asap

It’s a lot more promising than it looked at the beginning. Hope the finale doesn’t disappoint

Started reading yesterday night and couldn’t put it down. Very entertaining, although I think it is somewhat predictable…? Let’s see 🙂‍↕️

Mmmm ok

Run, Math, run… run from Nero

I read the first 27% in less than 24 hours when I was traveling, and dull moments called for it. Now I'm back home and haven't really taken time to read it. It is a 5☆ until now, though... yay

Why am I reading this again?

Am I a fan of romance? No. Did I see this available on NetGalley and found the title funny? Yes. So now I'm reading my first romance.

Kal is described in the premise as "smart", he isn't. Not on his planet and not on Earth either, it seems. I like Lola's chapters, though. So it balances it out

I thought this was gonna be a thriller. Yet, it's just a dystopian book about a reality show? Although it's not very dystopian, as in, it could be a reality show rn for sure (but it seems like this is in the future). I'm very interested. It does feel like watching a reality show where decency is abandoned and supeficiality and deception is rewarded.

Finished this one after a few days (didn't update it on here)! It was SO GOOD. Just the first three chapters made me feel such a range of emotions!

I'm conflicted if I should rate the volumes individually (which I usually don't do) since there are only 7 volumes out in Eng. Or if I group some vols together to rate it.

Anyway, this was a 5☆!!! There's a reason why this is regarded as one of the best mangas OAT!

Chapter 21 was 38 pages long, and all of them were worthy and peak! I'm so into the relationships being forged as well as the political intrigue being build up

I'm reading it and loving it, and then I went to check the reviews.... people hate this book?? Mainly because there's no romance, many pages, long chapters; boring is also an adjective used.

I'm astonished. Not saying those people opinions ain't valid, but... the writing + story are so gripping, I can't really understand. And I'm usually very critical of EVERY book, including my fav ones! Weird...!

Kel is kissing everyone left and right (prostitute, twink, FMC), but not the person I want him to. I like how Kel describes kissing Lin as "surprisingly pleasant, but knew enough about himself to realize he was seeking something he had not found yet." Lin also didn't care AT ALL.

(It was a convenient kiss, which I rolled my eyes at, until their indifferent reaction after the kiss was described, no big deal, move on)

Five star potential. Although this has a romantasy tag, no romance in sight, which I'm more than pleased. The characters can grow and be fleshed out without the romance (that will certainly happen eventually, I'm guessing) weighting them down as their own people.

609 pages and only 25 chapters.... Cassandra Clare, I'll find you.

In all honesty, I'm really loving it so far, and you don't even feel the length of the chapters at all !

bizarro

There was a lesbian kiss, bordering on SA, (it's the guy's sister) not cool tho 🧍‍♂️

Thank you, NetGalley 🙂‍↕️ this is terribly cute

Ótima escrita e muito intrigante! 😯

This is fun!
I've reached that moment of the holidays when everything is more interesting than reading (I mean, seeing BTS concert hello???), so I've started a million books but haven't continued on with any.

This book got me hooked in, finally! It's a mulan hidden identity type of book (which I love) and is being well done! I like these characters too :)

"(...) and the barrio was left to wither (...)"

The "barrio" kills me. 😭 holy cringe. Just say neighborhood, suburb, town or whatever.

NetGalley pick. Graphic novel. I feel like I always have a problem with graphic novels’ art styles. It always feels more amateurish for some reason (especially when we compare to mangas). Obviously not a fair comparison, for a number of reasons, but is inevitable for me to make since it’s what I usually read in this format.

Anyway…. Let’s see how it goes. I’m trying to read more graphic novels

Finished Volume #11: 3☆
It's not bad, but it's hard to be interested in it. I'm not sure if it's because I made such a long pause between this and the last Volume... but all the Light and Near back and forth is annoying! It also feels so repetitive, and it's almost like they are overcomplicating the explanations for us! Just be concise and straight with it.

Anyway... I'm still curious for the final installment.

I have my suspicions... please, Freida, be original and don't do the twist of the "hot good guy is actually bad" once again
