In mid-June, I had briefly chatted about how I was going to be undergoing a heart procedure to treat one of my illnesses, which would then have vastly improved my health. That procedure took place on June 25th and, unfortunately, it was not a success. Today, I wanted to provide y’all with a small update…
Holy shit, y’all! I am feeling rather mind-blown right about now, knowing that I’m currently writing my 1,000th post for BiblioNyan! When I began my blog 54 years ago, in a galaxy as far away as the Seven Hell’s, I never imagined that I would make it to this particular place. Shit, I never thought…
Hey all, This is going to be a super quick post where I pop in and let you now that I’m signing off BiblioNyan until after my heart surgery. Thank you SO, SO much for all of supportive words from my previous announcement of this absolutely frightening gig. A couple of things have changed since…
I was looking over my anime watchlist and my TBR for manga and light novels this morning and I realised that there are a shite ton of stuff that I want to consume. Yet, rather than turning to newer titles, I keep re-reading and re-watching olden comforts. Of course there is absolutely nothing wrong with…
One of my favourite things about watching anime is getting to look at the food that the characters eat. I’m not sure what it is about this medium, but the food almost always looks so scrumptious and mouth-watering, more so than they would in actual photographs. Looking at the plethora of dishes kicks my endorphins…
Good morning and happy Sunday to all. June has been a pretty random blogging month for me, as it probably has for a lot of folx out there. Lots of things happened this month so far that really put life on hold for more dire circumstances and occurrences. Even though I’m finding my way back…
Comics are some of my favourite things in the whole world. It’s a medium that has some of the very best narratives to offer and almost always has something to say about the fucked-up parts of society. Throughout history, comics have provided a platform for the voices of marginalised experiences where other platforms sought to…

View this post on Instagram Silence is violence. It enables genocide. It incites oppression. It is the food for systemic racism & anti-Blackness. I fight for Black lives & I’ll never be silent. What do you fight for? A post shared by Shāfiya Mū 👽 They/Them (@thedjinnreader) on Jun 2, 2020 at 11:48pm PDT [This…
Okay, I am so ready for the local libraries to open up their doors soon. As someone who tends to be a stress shopper, my Kindle library has been growing like a weed on steroids. Granted, I never buy an e-book unless it’s on sale for a couple of bucks (I may stress shop, but…
Good evening, friends. I wanted to pop in briefly and share some announcements and thoughts on a few things. Firstly, I wanted to share that I shall be celebrating Pride Month over on my diverse books blog, The Djinn Reader, all month long. In addition to highlighting Queer books, particularly ones by authors of colour,…
Manga has been my practically been my sole resource for reading lately (reading rut wise). With the world going to shit over and over again recently, it’s been mighty difficult to concentrate on novels. So, I’ve turned to Japanese graphic novels and old-school comics for refuge and the experience has quite possibly been life-saving, particularly…
