A case of Mountain Dew, Mothman, and a plate of pepperoni rolls. Text: West Virginia Day is tomorrow, so don't forget to set out some pepperoni rolls and Mountain Dew for Mothman.

2. Finished Boruto NNG and caught up with Boruto TBV. I was originally a hater but after reading I’m letting Kishimoto cook. It definitely has an odd Sci-Fi twist now, involving inserting alien dna into people, cloning and dead gods. Definitely a different vibe than Naruto but I’m kinda digging it?

Next up is a 2-for-1.

1. Caught up to the current chapter with Kagurabachi. A really fun series with a great art style. Series is kinda a slow burn but I dig the world building recently. Definitely interested to see how they continue to flesh out the magic system and lore.

Kuma from One Piece smiling, exactly how I’m feeling after catching up to the current release of One Piece.

And within about a month I have caught up with the current chapter of One Piece, another ~25 volumes. I finally get why people are ride or die for the series, it’s just such a fun journey the whole way through. Perfect series if you love following the story of like 100 characters all at once.

Been a while since Ive updated this but I have been busy! After moving about a month ago, I started reading the One Piece manga instead of watching the anime. In the past month I have read Volumes 50-75 and have been really enjoying the manga's pacing. Take an image of Robin instead of a cover.

#2 is Renegades: Lord of Excess by Rich McCormick. No suprise it’s another Warhammer book lol. First book I’ve read from Rich but I’m a fan so far. He manages to capture the paranoia and vanity of the Emperors Children very well, as well as how easily a world can fall to chaos in the 41st millennium

Cover of John French’s novel Ahriman Undying.

First up is Ahriman Undying by John French. It’s the fifth book in the series and is honestly my favorite yet. The story is told in a very nonlinear way that the author somehow makes sense and paces very well. Ahriman is as op as ever but tbh that’s why we love the guy lol.

Don’t know if this will be a thing or if I’ll keep up with it but I wanna make a thread of all the books I read/listen to this year. After a disappointing showing last year I need to step it up.
