Today I am going to be talking about 3 new releases that I read recently, because I enjoyed them, and think you should pick them up.  Beyond The Clouds, by Nicke This is one of the most stunning manga I have ever read! Theo, an orphan is taken in at a mechanics shop, and his only love is stories and books.  It's his escape, and how he deals with the horrors life has dealt him.  He spends his spare time in a junk yard looking for "treasure"  This boy is just TOO PURE and has the BEST IMAGINATION. This leads him to discover a young little girl with wings.  One of her wings has been torn off, and she is suffering when Theo finds her.  What he doesn't know, is that this young girl has a dark side to her.  Theo protects her, and does everything he can to bring light and life into her world again.  He even is attempting to rebuild a new wing for her.  I fell hard and fast for this series.  I teared up more than once....

She also discovers that she is nervous to be reacquainted with Leo after a long period apart. After some friendly advice, she decides to dress up for their reunion. We will chat more about this when we talk about Leo. Lante grows in his desire to protect Saraphi after she stands up for him. She believed him when he said he didn't do what he was accused of, and we got his back story as to why that was important to him. Lante then takes the next step in guarding Saraphi by talking with Leo, the King. Leo , starts to feel jealous because he can't be the one at Saraphi's side all...

Hi Friends!  It has been a little while since I posted here on this blog.  I am sorry for my unintentional absence.  I am currently working on the look of this blog, as I still feel this is a work in progress.  In general with this blog, what I am hoping to do at a bare minimum is to check in on Sundays with a look at what I have read during the week. Of course I am hoping to have more content outside of that, but that is the minimum that I want to set for myself for now until I can better get into the swing of things.  The other thing I am hoping to better find with this blog is my writing voice.  I have felt for a while now, that as I write, it feels like anyone on this earth could have written it.  There isn't enough of myself in this at the moment, and I desperately want to see that change in the next little while.  If you are interested in some specific goals, feel free to click  here  to see a tour of my reading journal, a...
