• Reading Log 2025

  I know, I know, I said earlier this year I’d cut back on the reading. I didn’t reach a thousand, but I clearly didn’t stick to my goal. I blame the economy for not giving me a job to fill my time. Currently stands at 839 Any who, reading is better than drugs and I…

  Technically, the fourth volume hasn’t come out yet so it doesn’t have a proper title, but I thought Knights was a good stand-in until it vol 4 (#16-20) gets released.
