And it's a wrap! Did you manage to get some reading done?

I've started Patience & Esther. It's really sweet so far.

I read three volumes of "Banana Fish", a manga! So started a lot of manga... finished just about none of them, but I did read a lot of things, anyway.

The heat broke just enough for me to be able to focus, so I read Yagi the Bookshop Goat, which is a single-volume BL manga. It was pretty cute.

No further progress, but I'm happy with the one that I did read, because the challenge spurred me on to read something I should have read years ago! Thank you for running the challenge.

[tamsin]

You're very welcome. Getting to something that's been on your list for a long time is so satisfying.

[tamsin]

That sounds sweet. Does the goat work in the bookshop?

[tamsin]

That's a lot of reading done! Do you plan to stick with all the manga you started?

[autumndaze]

Yeah, they're all series I'd like to finish, and plan to finish! It's just a matter of... picking something and going for it lol I have a habit of not finishing manga without some outside impetus.

Yes and he definitely eats part of his paychecks. ^^;;

(He probably has accidentally eaten his paycheck, literally, as well.)

[tamsin]

I'm not sure I'd hire someone who eats the merchandise, but maybe he's really good at sales? *g*

[mekare]

That sounds really cute!

Ah I‘m sorry to have missed this challenge, I would have liked to get back into my art books again. Ah well, there is always next time.

[kalloway]

It is, and was just what I needed after weeks of being too hot to even read. ^_^;

[tamsin]

Are your books about art works or about how to do art?
I'm happy to bring the challenge back if there's interest. Maybe September or October?

[mekare]

Mostly about art works and those are the ones I‘m interested in reading. I bought a couple of huge tomes on Chinese art that I have partially read, ut I really want to get back to.

[tamsin]

That sounds really cool. I don't know much about Chinese art, but I'm sure there's plenty of interesting stuff to discover.
