30-Day Anime Challenge – Day 20: Anime Character That Gets on Your Nerves

Day 20: Anime Character That Gets on Your Nerves Okay, I have a tie for this one. Bulma from Dragon Ball & Dragon Ball Z; Sakura (kid) from Naruto Bulma drives me fucking bat-shit crazy. I have no complex or profound reason as to why either. I simply find her personality to be unbearably unpleasant.…

Sir Besty got me some books to celebrate a good thing in her life recently (she’s the best 🖤), so I’ll be sharing them as they pilfer into my the mailbox. This chunky, beastly murder weapon is a trilogy I’ve been dying to get! Sam Sykes is an amazing adult fantasy author (and a fucking riot of a human). After searching for this series for years, when I came across the monstrous omnibus edition, I snagged it ASAP. Minus the phalange workout I’m gonna get from holding it, I can’t wait to read it! If you haven’t checked out Sam Sykes stuff, I highly recommend you do so! 🖤 . . . . #fantasybooks #newbooks #bookmail #bookhaul #bookstagram #bookspines #bigbooks #ilikebigbooksandicannotlie #bookjunkie #bookaddict #bookgeek #readaholic #igreads #bibliophile #booklr
Creative ruts can feel terrible, but I’ve also learned to appreciate them as a sign from my mind yelling at me to take a break. Now that I’ve done just that, I’ve been feeling more inspired than ever with all the things I love! 🖤 One of those things include reading fantasy books again. I’ve been taking my time savouring Half the World by Joe Abercrombie. I adored the first novel in the series, Half a King, and I like how this one is centred on a different main character. It’s an interesting dynamic and I’m curious to discover how it’ll all wrap-up whenever I get to the final instalment. . . . . . #books #fantasybooks #bookstagram #booklr #bookworm #booklife #booklove #bookish #bibliophile #bibliophilelife #bookjunkie #igbooks #booknerd #readaholic #currentreads #currentlyreading #reading #amreading
Books to read before they are due back at the libs in a week. This will be my first book by Sandhya Menon and I’m looking forward to the light, fluffy, cuteness of the narrative. I could definitely use it after reading the brilliant yet emotionally hefty Miracle Creek by Angie Kim (excellent if you like stories about immigrants, children with disabilities and the impacts on family life, and legal thrillers). . . . #diversebooks #weneeddiversebooks #ownvoices #southasianlit #diverseya #yacontemporary #yabooks #bibliophile #bookblogger #bookaddict #readaholic #bibliophilelife #libraryaddict
This is one of those sci-fi serials that wasn’t as popular when I bought them, however, it’s gathered quite a mighty following over the years. I love adult sci-fi and I do want to read this one day. Yet, that hype does have me feeling a bit hesitant. Have y’all read this series? What did you think? 🤔 . . . #bookstagram #books #scifibooks #booksofig #bibliophile #bookjunkie #bookaddict #booklife #bookish #bookworm
If you’re in the market for a manga series that is SO marvellously inclusive of LGBTQIA+ characters with gay/lesbian, bisexual, asexual, aromantic, non-binary representation (and more) without following harmful narrative tropes or fetishising those identities, then you must read Devils’ Line by Ryo Hanada. It’s one of my top ten fave seinen manga because of its characters and how even the most minor individuals have a radiant level of depth to them. Also, the entire story is an allegory of society falling into uncivilised mob-mentalities when it comes to things they are either too ignorant about or feel uncomfortable with (such as LGBTQIA+ people or POC, for examples). The anime was a hot mess of crap that did not do the series justice at all, so I’ll never recommend it. But the manga is so well-written and I just can’t get enough of it. Aside from its rep, it’s an adult crime dark fantasy manga about Devils or vampires who are trying to coexist with humans. The vampires also don’t follow typical moulds. For example, they have limited lifespans and can procreate with humans creating biracial offspring. It’s super dark yet super fantastic!! 🏳️‍🌈💙 . . . #devilsline #devilslinemanga #seinen #seinenmanga #デビルズライン #まんが #おたく #bookstagram #diversebooks #queerbooks #lgbtqia #bookrecommendations #bibliophile #bookworm #bookjunkie #otaku
This is my FAVOURITE book EVER!!! It’s central theme is the Buddhist belief in impermanence (among others). It is equal parts breathtaking, deeply thought-provoking, comforting, and utterly heartbreaking. I’ve never read a book filled with such intense evocative elements before, including being humble in the face of great and terrible adversity. I love it SO MUCH and am tearing up just talking about it. 💙💙 . . . #japaneseliterature #tabinekoripoto #旅猫リポート #文学 #文献 #diversebooks #ownvoices #bestbooksever #bibliophile #bookjunkie #reader #readaholic #bookworm #booklife #bookblogger
