Review: Upright Women Wanted by Sarah Gailey

Hey all, Dani here. Today was not a good day at work, and it's because of this whole COVID-19 thing. Things only seem to be getting worse, and so many in the US are clamoring for everything to be opened up again.

Hey all, Dani here. Today's review is a special one for me, especially during National Library Week.

Review: The Life and (Medieval) Times of Kit Sweetly by Jamie Pacton

Hey all, Dani here. Greetings and a hearty huzzah to you all. Well, I have finished two full weeks back down in general assembly at work. It's going okay, but I'm definitely escaping into reading as much as I can. Well, reading and Animal Crossing.

Hey all, Dani here. Did I take a day to try and write up as many blog posts as I could? Yep, that is absolutely true. Which is why I'm going to have to be pretty generic and vague in the intro section here, because honestly I don't know what is going to happening in… Continue reading Manga Review: Black Clover Volume 19
