Grpahic novels/manga, don't really know the difference, but I picked up this joint called AYAKO yesterday & am thoroughly enjoying it thus far. It's about 700 pages and I'm up to 575. Of course, it's not heavy reading at all, but can consume at least 4 or 5 hours if reading (at my pace) straight through. It has the feel of a personal movie reel running in your head.

I'm looking to build my personal library, some parts books like this, some parts biographical, poetry, and more; pretty much all-inclusive.

Cover of book, AYAKO

Graphic novels are pretty much the only thing I read aside from a actual book or so but I haven't picked one up in a while, the last one I bought was Joker, pretty dope I liked how it was in the perspective of a henchman's henchman, and of course Watchmen.
