There's not a lot I can say about the BSD manga without spoiling so feel free to skip all the individual volume recs!
4.5 ⭐️ This was a great volume as always! Oh, Ranpo, my boy!!!!! I've missed him. The reveal at the end.... Fukuchi wtf... and Akutagawa??? There's not much I can say without spoiling since I'm so far into the series but just check it out!
Bungo Stray Dogs, Vol. 19
5 ⭐️ Dude, this was a wild ride. Akutagawa, my love.... READ BUNGO!
Bungo Stray Dogs, Vol. 20
5 ⭐️ Dude wtf. The plot is so thick right now and it just keeps getting crazier.. Tachihara..my shayla..
Bungo Stray Dogs, Vol. 21
4.5 ⭐️ Lots of twists as always! I love that Dazai and Dostoyevsky are like perfect matches for each other, I see them as two sides of the same coin and that's cool to watch play out.
Bungo Stray Dogs, Vol. 22
4.75 ⭐️ I'm getting scared. Dazai's a beast as always. I really hope to see more of Kenji and Tetchou interacting. Not even gonna mention the cliffhanger...
Bungo Stray Dogs, Vol. 23
5 ⭐️ This volume was sick and twisted and I truly don't know what else to say. I'm so wrapped up in this story, it's unbelievable.
Bungo Stray Dogs, Vol. 24
5 ⭐️ Holy. This one's got a little kick to it... this was rough. Arguably the worst cliffhanger ever to be left on. WTF. My heart is all twisted up and I'm genuinely emotional over these characters.
Bungo Stray Dogs, Vol. 25
4.25 ⭐️ Okay, was this a little ridiculous? Yes, but did I still eat it up? Also yes. *Trigger Warning: this book does contain mentions/depictions of domestic violence (not from the MMC)* There's several quirks of this book that a lot of other review...
Unperfect
4 ⭐️ This was a fascinating read. *Trigger Warning: this book contains themes of physical and sexual abuse and trauma* The first few chapters were a little slow for me, but the second time I picked this book up, I could hardly stop reading. I don't e...
Room
4.25 ⭐️ This was such a bingeable romance for me! This is the 3rd book I've read from this series and I won't deny that they're formulaic and predictable, but they're cute and that's what I read them for! I've been picking these up when i just need s...
Hello Quarterback
4.75 ⭐️ I don't think you could claw this book out of my cold, dead hands. *Trigger Warning: this book contains themes and depictions of domestic violence and substance abuse* I was definitely not expecting to enjoy it this much, I was just craving a...
Meet Me Halfway
5 ⭐️ This is a follow-up novella to "Meet Me Halfway" and it was such a short, sweet little read. They are perfect, I love them so much.
Merry Me Darling: A Short Holiday Novella
2.75 ⭐️ Okay. I have a lot of conflicting feelings about this one, and I wrote a more extensive review that I will leave below if you are interested. *Trigger Warning: this book contains themes of stalking, violence, death, grief, and homophobia* The...

Continued some of an ARC that already came out... and fell into a KU hole.. help..
4 ⭐️ Okay, was it insane? Yes. Did I eat it up? Also yes. Some things about this were definitely wild and laughable. Probably a little ridiculous too. And, to be honest, sometimes the sex scenes carried on for so long and over so many chapters that I...
Ruthless Desires, Volume One
April
4 ⭐️ I can't say I didn't enjoy this series, because I did, but it was just so...long. I didn't really mind the length until about half way through this second volume where it felt like it was dragging along and repetitive. It was still wild, laughab...
Ruthless Desires, Volume Two
2 ⭐️ This was interesting. Yes, it's the 'woman escapes abusive man and finds real love' trope and I do eat it up. I have a few longer thoughts that I'll leave below if you're interested. The short version is that there was some weird vibes and non-e...
Wretched Love
May
4.75 ⭐️ This was an ARC read from NetGalley! If you are looking for a quirky fantasy about a mysterious supernatural world, then this might be just for you! This novel follows Green, an ordinary man who experiences a bizarre phenomenon leaving him wi...
Strange Animals
4 ⭐️ I finished at least 75% of this book in one day. I love the short chapters and the writing made it easy to binge. I also love the concept of accidentally finding a buried secret on an old VHS tape and the 3 siblings who wound up on entirely diff...
