Image
Welcome to my November reading and crafting vlog! I've decided to rename these Disis19 Diaries, because that's what these videos really are - diary entries as opposed to following me around while I do things. This vlog will encompass what I finished reading so far in November as well as what I've logged for Light Novel November.  There's some knitting and a yarn haul in this one too ^-^  ~Mentions~ Bungo Stray Dogs, Light Novel 1: Osamu Dazai's Entrance Exam by Kafka Asagiri, Illustrated by Sango Harukawa Solo Leveling Light Novel 3 by Chugong, Narrated by Ki Hong Lee Crunkled Sock Pattern is from Kay Jones of the Bakery Bears Podcast.
