Monochrome Manga Club First Impressions | Obey Me and Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint

Image
    It's Manga Monday! Today I'm sharing my first impressions of Obey Me and Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint. I thought I'd have a dedicated video to these selections in case anyone wanted to read and talk about the selections with me here. I also announce the February selections, in case you want to read those and talk with me about them. Let me know your thoughts on these volumes in the comments below, but please no spoilers past volume 1 ^-^ If you'd like to read the selections and chat with me about them, join the Monochrome Manga Club Discord .

Book1CoziesClub: My Thoughts on Chaos at the Lazy Bones Bookshop (Halloween Bookshop Mystery 1)

Image
Chaos at the Lazy Bones Bookshop by Emmeline Duncan My rating: 4 of 5 stars Really enjoyable and entertaining cozy mystery. Included several things that I personally enjoy such as knitting, tea, and books to name a few. Looking forward to the next one! View all my reviews

Books: My Thoughts on The Ashport Archives: Search for The Phoenix

Image
The Ashport Archives: Search for The Phoenix by Stephanie A. Gillis My rating: 4 of 5 stars Very entertaining read! The reveal wasn't surprising to me, but I don't think it should've been since there were clues dropped along the way. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens in the next installment.

Books: My Thoughts on Fearless Magic (Star-Crossed 3)

Image
Fearless Magic by Rachel Higginson My rating: 3 of 5 stars Entertaining, but the same things that bothered me in the previous installments continue to bother me here. Big supporter of the way the love triangle is turning, however I feel like it will turn back the other direction before this series is done. I did listen to this one completely by audiobook and while I'm entertained and there's nothing wrong with the narration, I do think the presentation is adding to my frustration with certain characters.

Books: My Thoughts on Eruption

Image
Eruption by Michael Crichton My rating: 3 of 5 stars Unfortunately, this was a disappointing read for me. I had some personal issues with things that occurred in the story and I know that won't affect most people that read this. It was an easy read and the short chapters make it so you can read as little or as much as you want to in a sitting, but there were just too many things that bothered me. View all my reviews

Light Novel: My Thoughts on 86—EIGHTY-SIX, Vol. 2

Image
86—EIGHTY-SIX, Vol. 2 by Asato Asato My rating: 4 of 5 stars Really enjoying this series! This installment covers some of what happens in the second season of the anime. It wasn't new material to me, but I enjoyed it none the less. Looking forward to the next installment! View all my reviews

Books: My Thoughts on The Hunt for Atlantis (Nina Wilde & Eddie Chase 1)

Image
The Hunt for Atlantis by Andy McDermott My rating: 4 of 5 stars I really enjoyed this. It was exactly what I was looking for - an adventure with lots of action scenes. Looking forward to continuing with this series. View all my reviews

Books: My Thoughts on The Never Game (Coulter Shaw 1)

Image
The Never Game by Jeffery Deaver My rating: 3 of 5 stars I read this after watching the adaptation and while I was entertained by this story, it kind of felt like it was missing something. The pace was a lot slower than I expected as well. Listened to this one entirely and I thought the narrator was fine, but maybe that also lended to the slower pace I felt? I'm still interested in continuing with this series, but won't be jumping into the next one right away. View all my reviews
