Becca’s Bookopolothon WRAP UP!

For this weekend, I read 3 mangas and one graphic novel. I enjoyed something from all of them! I have them all 3 stars and above! 


Inuyasha Vizbig 3 (5 Stars) - I ABSOLUTELY LOVED this!!!!


Inuyasha and Kagome continue their quest to find the Shikon Jewel shards, as well as meeting new friends...It continues the action, comedy and touching moments the other volumes had! I read this as the first book for Becca’s Bookopolothon- fantasy. I’d say there’s more emotion/longing between the two main characters, Inuyasha and Kagome in the manga than in the anime. Sesshomaru is still present and I love his character so...❤️! Jaken is 😂😂😂 too!


I also love the art from this series!


Fence volume 1 (4 Stars) - I enjoyed this! 


I read it for Contemporary for Becca’s Bookopolothon! I’ll pick up volume 2! 


I really enjoyed this! I wondered if it would be my thing because it’s a sports graphic novel but I really found it focused much more on the characters than the fencing, which was nice. Nicholas, the main character attends a fencing school, where he has to face his “golden-boy” older brother, as well as a mysterious opponent. I think they’ll be a gay romance between these two, which I’ll be living for...


I love the coloured art too. I normally read manga which are black and white, rather than coloured so I really enjoyed how it was in colour.


Spice And Wolf vol 1 (3.5 Stars) - Read for “First In A Series” for Becca’s Bookopolothon!


This was a reread. We follow Laurence, a travelling merchant and the start of his adventure with Holo the wolf. I enjoyed this, although some of the money talk went over my head. I’ve watched the anime, the 2 seasons of it that were made, so I understood it well enough as this volume is a part of the anime. 


The art style is super cute! I laughed a few times too, so it’s also comical.


Not for young children, as there’s nudity, as well as them not understanding it all.


Deadman Wonderland vol 1 (3 Stars) - I read this for “other (outside your usual genres)” for Becca’s Bookopolothon. It was a VERY quick read! 


We follow Ganta, a young boy who’s charged with the murders of his class at the beginning of the book! He’s therefore sent to Deadman Wonderland, a prison theme park...will he survive? You’ll have to read to find out...


I probably won’t pick up the next volume. It was okay but not a new favourite or anything.

The Forest Of Adventures (The Knight Trilogy #1) by Katie M John

Hi ForeverBookers,  I have a new book to add to my list of favourites! The Forest Of Adventures is a great book if you love romance, adventure and history/fantasy as it has all of those elements.  This book is mature in some aspects so I'd say only age 16+ readers should read it. It doesn't get graphic but sex is still brought up.  We see from Mina's perspective throughout so the main girl in this story, who's seventeen years old. She's at college when she sits next to a boy, Blake Beldevier. He's a very charmingly mysterious guy. Mina is already in a relationship with Sam. A guy she's known from years before this book starts but she's attracted to Blake. When Sam sees Mina walking with Blake one afternoon at college, he gets angry and has a car crash. The rest of the book centres around this accident and Mina's relationship with Blake as well as other characters, her mother for instance who has always wanted Mina to marry Sam when she...

A Court Of Silver Flames (ACOTAR #5) by Sarah J Maas Review

Hi ForeverBookers,  How have you all been since the beginning of 2024? I haven’t checked in much, I know, but I’ve still been reading! Last night, I finished “A Court of Silver Flames” (“ACOSF”),  by Sarah J Maas, which I ABSOLUTELY ADORED! It was so, so, so, so, SOOOOO good!!!  It tells the story of Nesta, rather than Feyre, the character which the other “ACOTAR” books have all focused on. I honestly didn’t think I would like it much because I’m a total Feyre and the man she ends up with fangirl and I REALLY didn’t like Nesta in the other books or what there was of her, anyway, but OMG was I WRONG! Never judge a book, until you’ve read it, is all I’ll say… “ACOSF” is told from 3rd person POV which I thought I’d hate, because I like being inside the main female character’s head and seeing and feeling exactly what she is. Nesta, while told from 3rd person POV though, has a huge breakthrough with the reader, I believe. She was a very hateful character in the first b...

Brighid's Quest (Partholon Series #5 Review) by PC Cast Review

Hi ForeverBookers,  This book was good.  It took me about 150 pages to really get in to unfourtunately, and even then I really only enjoyed the last half of the book.  This tells more the story of centaur huntress Brighid, although we do see others stories' within this book as well.  Spoilers below! The first 100 or so pages have nothing to really do with the overall plot. It's just Brighid and Cuchulainn (Cu) going to find the femorians that killed Brenna, Cu's lost love. Cu is hell bent on redemption at first but when he gets to know the "new femorians" he doesn't want to hurt them as most of them are only children without parents. He wants to bring them back to find their own redemption at Macallan Castle with Clan Macallan. The new femorians are given the power of restoration by the Goddess Epona. This kind of does come into play right at the end of the novel but I didn't think we needed everything the author gave us to understand what Cu and Brighid w...
