October Wrap Up!

[@WeirdTangent]

I recently learned _The Love Hypothesis_ is fan-fiction based on Rey and Kylo Ren from Star Wars - I feel like this isn't mentioned much though, so I don't know who knows that!?!

[@LochsLibrary]

0:50 I JUST FINISHED THIS AND OMG

[@taranginisinha7082]

The anime i would recommend is Erased... Such a short anime but at the same time too much happens.. it's great and also another one i would like to recommend is Sonny boy. It's unlike any anime i had ever seen. Felt like a fever dream ...an acid trip..it was mind blowing!!

[@thecoolpineapple93]

Webtoon you should read: Unholy Blood, it ended yesterday, 90 chapters and will have 2 epilogues, probably you will like it.

[@katedunstan6327]

Love that you have started getting into anime 💕 I would recommend: - Full metal alchemist - Kurokos basket ball (love haikyu with my whole heart, so this one is a good shout for another sports anime) - Fruits basket

[@readbysolyda9148]

I definitely felt the same way about The Hex Ex. I feel like I was expecting too much from it but was a bit of a let down. The Love Hypothesis was too cute ☺️ Definitely one of those books l’ll be rereading many years to come

[@johnsaxongitno4life588]

[@jacullyhunter3975]

Did you enjoy The great alone? What did you think about the ending?

[@angelaholmes8888]

@@jacullyhunter3975 the great alone is a good read but it's not my favorite when it comes to the author my favorite is the nightingale

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

I need to read the love hypothesis so badly 🥲

[@angelaholmes8888]

Yeah me too unfortunately so many people have it on hold at my library so it's going to be awhile

[@readbysolyda9148]

Highly recommend!! Healthy relationship story is where it’s at! 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@jaydas8976]

It’s such a great book, I’d highly recommend it

[@Kay-winters]

I started reading nevermoor I’m liking it so far Edit: I am reading Jackson diary have read up to the newest episodes (I have also read heart stopper)(both in a day)

[@kerisbookishcorner2864]

I LOVE Attack on Titan. Just wait til everything starts coming together and tying in as you watch! I have fully fallen into a black hole of anime where I can’t stop watching whenever I start a new one. Black Clover is another one I love, and My Hero Academia and Assassination Classroom are also good in my opinion. I’m all caught up on them and feeling really sad now lol I’ll have to check out The Love Hypothesis, I’m not a big romance reader but I do often enjoy the fake dating trope…

[@ally5000]

time to pull out my goodreads to add more books to my tbr list 😙

[@thebookcasebandit]

If you're after a cute, cosy romance, check out Second First Impressions by Sally Thorne (if you haven't already 😄). It's seriously like a hug in a book!

[@lyd7136]

A must-read webcomics: Under The Oak Tree! It’s another arranged marriage story and the premise is a bit offputting, but give it a few chapters and you’ll be hooked 🔥 I read it on Manta Comics and I believe there’s a free trial so you should definitely go ahead and check it out!

[@beccierae]

Yup you said it right. I loved the Cassidy Blake series

[@laurencisneros1144]

If you're ever confused about the animes you watch I'd recommend reading the manga, especially for AOT - it starts to make sense once you read it. There's also only going to be 4 seasons, the second part comes out soon and will be the final as the manga is now completed as well. AOT is basically a dark fantasy, dystopia of a world where the remainder of civilization has to live in a city surrounded by walls because there's nothing on the outside except really big and tall human like beings called "titans" who roam around eating people. Their origin when you start out with the story is unknown, just that they're believed to have been around forever and that there isn't much known about them or how they operate, just that they seem to have a diet of eating people. There's a monarchy who runs the city which live in the center and then the outer districts that surround the palace, as you go further out the population is more condensed and the economic conditions of each district are poorer as you reach the outer walls. Everyone inside struggles to get by, some are worse off than others. There's 3 branches of government within this system but the group that this story mainly focuses on are the Scouts, which is basically a branch comprised of soldiers who are trained in battle and vertical maneuvering gear, they keep the titans on the outside of the walls at bay by killing them and running scouting missions where they'll either look for supplies or attempt to map out terrain to see if there's other people out there or resources as the majority of people in this walled city believe they're the only ones. One day 2 titans that are bigger than any anyone has ever seen break through the Southern most district on the outer wall, causing chaos, destruction and the deaths of thousands of people, including the family of the main characters in this story. You then basically follow this trio the whole show/manga as they work to become Scouts themselves and figure out the origin of these titans as well as the many struggles they face in a politically charged environment, there's a lot of people and groups fighting for power, conspiracies and cover ups and of course a lot of titan fighting/killing. Just be aware before going in that there's a lot of violence in this show, they don't censor scenes where people get mutilated, stabbed, eaten or crushed, so you see it all. Because you're following the story through the eyes of these 3 kids, you only know what they do, so it is going to be confusing as you go through it and make sense as they find out more about the world they live in. There's also a lot of characters they slowly start to introduce you too and a lot of them stay a part of the story as it progresses too, but be warned there is NO happy ending, a lot of people and characters die. Sorry about this essay of a comment lol, I hope it made it more clear for people in terms of what the AOT anime is about, it's really good if you like that dystopian, strong male lead with tons of political intrigue and plot/character development.

[@ropecrewman36]

I finally started watching Attack On Titan last week!!!! I need shows like Usagi Drop and Looney Tunes as pallet cleansers, though. It is both exhilarating and exhausting at the same time.

[@itske9033]

The remarried empress is an amazing WEBTOON. They just finsihed the fist season so you can binge it in one go. I also just started covenant which looks promising too. Phantom Paradise is amazing, and finished.

[@Camille-ew5yx]

You should check out The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. and Asobi Asobase. Both are SO FUNNY, they're one of my comfort animes. The Love Hypothesis is also one of my favorite October reads! I'm going to pick up Aurora Rising because of you're recommendation :)

[@srijabiswas4989]

Please watch Horimya! its a beautiful slice of life anime

[@laraot1508]

I think you’d enjoy the anime called free, it’s another sports anime (those are always great lol)

[@josh9066]

Try reading Flora on Canvas on webtoon

[@Amanda-qt6lc]

The ex hex was such a disappointment. I've got love hypothesis, just need to pick it up.

[@ervinsmoviecorner8748]

Welcome back and almost 70K subscribers, Ashley!🌸🌸🌸🌸

[@laurel217]

Webtoon: Midnight poppy land (you neeed to read this!) ✨ Anime: Kuroko no basket (about basketball. Since you like haikyuu, you might like this one too) and Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba (about demons, but you might shed a tear or two) 👍❤ And a book recommendation if you haven't read it: All systems red (a very short sci-fi about an antisocial but very lovable "murderbot") 😆

[@silentlhady17]

Hi, Ash! Here's my webtoon's recommendation: Cursed Princess Club by LambCat - ongoing final season; comedy but has a deep story. healthy relationships and character developments The Witch and the Bull by Moonsia - ongoing; 2 seasons released; gorgeous art and story. slight enemies to friends (to eventual lovers hopefully) My Deepest Secret by Hanza Art - finished just this month; a wild ride. plot twist is it's middle name. went a bit downhill after the climax of the story and the ending was okay but still, recommend this one Nice To Meet You by wishroomness - ongoing season 2; cute. that is all i can say

[@jacullyhunter3975]

I swear I have the same thoughts about AOT, I have no idea what's happening most of the time but I know I LOVE it 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@sangeetadixit7710]

Death Note anime show is so good too. I watched in 2 days 🙈 Light Yagami is the most complex character I ever had the pleasure of watching. Almost like Zuko from avatar?

[@hannalanabanana6081]

SUBZERO is the BESTTTTT😍😍😍😍😍

[@_vrocks]

I’ve dabbled in anime in various genres but my FAVORITE anime, maybe because it was my first, was Bleach ❤️❤️ I was hooked from the start.

[@garnetcess4652]

[@BobBob73271]

[@amyya6978]

I have an anime suggestion "Fruits Basket" on Crunchyroll. I also really like "Black Butler" manga and anime.

[@mirandoom]

Books: The Bear and the Nightingale is a great adult fantasy based on Russian mythology! Anime: You like twist and turns and feeling things? Watch Orange. I can’t really say much about it, but do yourself a favor and give it a go.

[@emilygrasso273]

i am also a new dabbler in anime but my recommendation would be Death Note 100%. I am still in the middle of it but OH IT IS SO GOOD!!

[@reder1155]

[@xXKandy2HolicXx]

You should watch Laid Back Camp it is a slice of life about high school girls going camping. It’s doesn’t sound like much but it is so good. I promise.

[@lindsey1412]
