• Silver Spoon – A funny yet deep series about farm school; really hit hard with graduating high school and all, by the author of Fullmetal Alchemist so I highly recommend it
• 20th Century Boys – A classic story of good versus evil, one of the most emotional pieces I have ever read, another one of Naoki Urasawa’s best works

I’ve never heard of The Lost Island of Tamarind, but now I’ll have to check it out after hearing what you said about it! I love stories with good characters and relationships.

@devastate-lasting

220? Manga or not that’s still a lot of reading.

Do you have any favorite Manga you read this year?

Most of the books you mention are…[Read more]

Oof, it’s taken me forever to reply to all you guys, but here I am!

@trahia-the-minstrel

Woah, that’s like a consistent book week right? As a notoriously slow reader, I am in awe.

I’m going to have to check out Mark of the Lion Series by Francine Rivers then! I usually don’t read romance because I find them a bit dull and predictable, but from…[Read more]

@trahia-the-minstrel Hm… Well, pretty much everything I can think of has swearing in it, so I’m afraid not a lot of my reccs will be completely clean. Yotsuba&! is one of my favorite wholesome slice-of-life mangas with no anime adaption, about a little girl, so it should be enjoyable for adults, and probably for kids as well. Other than that,…[Read more]

@daisy-torres How exciting! I’ll be sure to check it out! Best of luck!

@kathleenramm Don’t feel bad, I can hardly read anything besides manga now. But for the sake of this discussion I’ll leave manga out of it.

How Many Books Have you Read this Year? List every one you read!

Out of the 220 books I read, only 15 were real books. And a lot were rereads.

The Summer of the Swans – Betsy Byars

Born Again – Charles…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Ah, the Ninjago line was a joke, haha.

The Fangs in Wingfeather Saga reminded me of the snake creatures in Ninjago, so I thought I’d make a little joke about it.

But yeah, sometimes jokes get misinterpreted when it’s in writing like this, haha.

@avacoulter

Cool cool. It’s rare to find friends that you hang out with in both online and offline.

Newt and Minho are also my favorite characters from the Maze Runner Series! However that’s just from me watching the movies, I’m not sure if my answer would change if I read the books.

I highly recommend reading The Hunger Games especially if you…[Read more]

@autumn-rebecca
Hi! Welcome to KP! It’s lovely to have you!

Firstly I must ask you, do you have any favorite books or authors? Also, what got you into writing?

It’s awful that you are unable to access a library. Are you unable to access libraries because they are not in your area or is there some other reason? It must make it hard to ever read…[Read more]

@avacoulter I literally just watched Markiplier try aerial silks, haha. It looks really cool!

@annabelle I have a younger sister, but that’s it, haha.

@annabelle Yess, plus with pen and paper it’s more transportable.

Wow, that’s a lot of siblings! Are you the oldest or…?

@annabelle Oh, nice! I was homeschooled as well. And I still hand write a lot of things, for some reason.

It sounds like you guys make a good team! How many siblings do you have?

@avacoulter Sounds like maybe you’re up for a novellette or novella, haha.

What other things are you into?

@annabelle Well, I am pretty old, so it matches up in proportion XD

Wow, does your whole family do writing-related activities?

@annabelle Nice, nice! I’ve been playing piano for almost thirteen years now, and my teacher assigns me classical music, but I like playing pretty songs I hear.

Do you have any other projects you’re working on, (or plan to work on) after Identity?

@annabelle Heyy and welcome to the Kingdom! I’m Linyang, though most here call me Lin. Nice to meet you!

Identity sounds fascinating! Are you going to be self-publishing it?

I also play piano! How long have you been playing?

@avacoulter I’ve written/am working on a ton of projects right now, short stories, web fiction, novels, novellas… I like short stories because they’re quick and you can have instant satisfaction of finishing them, but also I tend to only write short story beginnings and nothing else, which is annoying on my part, haha.

@avacoulter Yeah, I agree, there is a balance to find.

Do you write a lot of short stories or have you just been working on this main project?
