Bookhunter

Bookhunter by Jason Shiga

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


A quick, but action-packed read. Even more awesome than I'd hoped! :D Agent Bay's hard-boiled edge totally makes the story. A must-read for all library staff who enjoy comics & graphic novels

Rosario+ Vampire

Rosario+Vampire, Vol. 2 by Akihisa Ikeda

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


This series is growing on me. It's cute. Some of the innuendo might bother some parents, but it's pretty innocent for the most overall. The same parents might be bothered by the monster slaying also - or that there are monsters to begin with. Its general themes are fitting in, sticking up for friends, fairness, and getting through high school.

Hirugashi When They Cry

Higurashi When They Cry, Vol. 2 by Ryukishi07

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Psychological horror in manga form. Very well done. :) Are there curses, demons, ghosts? Or is it all in the victims' minds? I'd recommend this series to fans of Japanese horror films (or even the American remakes) as well as Japanese horror fiction or other psychological thrillers.
