[@cari_iii]

omg, seaside stranger 💕 i hope you love it! the art is incredible. i really want to read bean counter and dangerous convenience store! i still have yet to tackle babel.. It's been on my shelf for so long.. the new shelf looks amazing💚 love it

[@thewhelmedlife]

Thank you!! 💕Babel is a bit of a complex read even though it's pretty easy to read writing-wise, the story gives you a lot to think about so take your time with it. I know I will haha Definitely recommend Dangerous Convenience Store since it's now completed, be prepared for the smut though lol and I can't wait to read Seaside Stranger ☺

[@cari_iii]

@thewhelmedlife yes I'll definitely go slow with it! and oh good to know about the smut level hahah 🤣 good to be prepared lol

You did such a good job rearranging everything! Looks great! I reread Sherry magic every single June if you have time, no pressure.❤❤❤ great Haul!!!

[@thewhelmedlife]

Thanks, I tried my best and OMG, that'll be the perfect time to read Cherry Magic. We were just talking about a June TBR too 😆

Great haul and YAY for new bookcase! I also mass bought Cherry Magic recently. I haven't seen the anime, but I've heard great things about it across the board so I felt reliably sure that it would be a win for me :D Have a great week!

[@thewhelmedlife]

What are the chances haha, Cherry Magic is definitely a win. You have a great week too!

[@miyayume_eclectic_dream]

I liked waching your collection. Cherry Magic, have you watched the live action series and movie as wrll? Or just manga and anime?

[@thewhelmedlife]

Thank you 💕 I've watched just the anime so far, the next adaptation on my list will be the Thai drama when I get a chance 🙂

[@miyayume_eclectic_dream]

If I my suggest but read as far as 4 volumes [yes there is a reason for it] of LILLABY OF DAWN

[@miyayume_eclectic_dream]

@llve-zzzsh sorry 🙈 I noticed now my sentence implies to only read 4 volumes. I wanted to sugest to try this manga but to read at least 4 volumes befor you make up your mind about the manga. The vol 4 ends with partial revelation that made me stare at the page for several minutes and I decided to colect it in that very moment.

[@thewhelmedlife]

@@miyayume_eclectic_dream thanks for the rec! I saw this on Hoopla recently and my library has exactly 4 volumes so I'll give it a read sometime ☺

[@thewhelmedlife]

Hi!!! I had to come back to this comment cos I just read all 4 volumes of Lullaby of the Dawn 😯. I really enjoyed it and will be collecting it as well, thanks for the rec!!

[@miyayume_eclectic_dream]

@@thewhelmedlife I am sooo glad! ✨️ Spoiler FREE: I find it unique as it is not just a love story but has worldbuilding one has not expected. I like that the village opinion about "chosen one" changed because of that ONE person. And I also got so very angry...

[@thewhelmedlife]

@@miyayume_eclectic_dream yes!! A lot of BL I read tend to be romantic/character focused so this was quite interesting and unexpected but still enjoyable. The pacing has also been great! This was a spot-on rec, I can't wait for the next volume 💕
