Nina the Starry Bride 1 by RIKACHI (manga)

Thank you to NetGalley and Kodansha Comics for this beautiful ARC!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Nina the Starry Bride 1 by RIKACHI

5 stars out of 5!
🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠

I thought it was going to be stupid. But, I'm a little bit in love with this series and now I'm going to have to read all the rest and tell everyone about them. But not too much, we don't want to spoil anything, do we??

The art is amazing, and everyone is beautiful in their own way. I'm a little bit in love with Azure.

Anyway, this manga is about an orphan: Nina who is plucked off the streets because she has the same coloured eyes as a dead priestess who is also a princess. Alisha, is the princess who was killed. This is about her journey on womanhood and learning how to embrace yourself.

I really enjoyed this and anyone who enjoys Manga will surely enjoy the book as well.

Fantastic read.

Haru: Book 1: Spring - by Joe Latham

Thenk you to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for this ARC.

3 out of 5 Stars.
🌠🌠🌠

Story and Illustrations by artist Joe Latham.

This is a graphic novel about the characters 'Haru', a bird who dreams of flying, and their friend Yama, a boar, who are used to being on the outside. But when Yama finds a seed they are swept into a journey to save their world.

It's a seed, right? Esentially a seed of evil. Lmao.

First, I'd like to bring up the art. It's cute, but not terribly eye catching, which is one of the reasons I couldn't give this graphic novel a 4 or a 5 out of 5 like I usually would. I'm usually an easy win with graphic novels, but this honestly bored me. Cute, yes, but exciting and adventurious feeling? Nope. Just didn't take me there.

I feel bad, but I'm always Honest.

There was hardly any information at any time and they barely talked, considering one of them was supposed to be super talkative? The pig, right? Anyway. I made myself finish it, but felt no differently after.
