Mystic Orange (Rumell) (rkrespectedmember) What is Read OMG Challenge. And yeas I am doing Reading Chalenge.


message 2: by Mystic Orange (new)

Mystic Orange (Rumell) (rkrespectedmember) Less than 30.


message 3: by Harper Nicole (new)

Harper Nicole (harpernicole) I think I have decided to do it. Just for fun. I will probably set it for 100, like Emily. I was looking at my shelves and the books I have read are mostly from this year, and a lot of the time I was re-reading. But, I am starting high school this year, so THAT could rock my world.


message 4: by Harper Nicole (new)

Harper Nicole (harpernicole) Right. You will have to give me tips!


message 5: by Laurel (new)

Laurel (laurelstories) | 52 comments I would probably set my gr challenge low just like last year so I wouldn’t be pressured especially now that I’ll be applying for college. And I have to focus in my studies because if I wasnt able to be in the honor roll, they would forbid me to use my phone or buy books

Are you still going to be homeschooled for high school?"


Yup.


message 8: by Mystic Orange (new)

Mystic Orange (Rumell) (rkrespectedmember) I wish I was studying at a boarding school.


message 9: by Harper Nicole (new)

Harper Nicole (harpernicole) Oo, I am excited for biology. I have been warned.

I think I might be ahead, of my goal!


message 14: by Harper Nicole (new)

Harper Nicole (harpernicole) I am behind. :( I don't read several books at once, and the book I am reading is not a real page turner either.

ElsaMakotoRenge (mantaicysnowflake) | 164 comments 400 for me, but to be fair I read fast and I like manga:)


message 31: by ElsaMakotoRenge (new)

ElsaMakotoRenge (mantaicysnowflake) | 164 comments Just Japanese comics. Like Sailor Moon, Non Non Biyori, Fullmetal Alchemist, etc. Right now I’m fangirling over the Madoka Magica series, it’s SO good!:)


message 32: by Harper Nicole (new)

Harper Nicole (harpernicole) I have a friend that reads manga.


Erin O'Connor {If The Review Fits} | 512 comments I read one manga book in my life, it was terrible!


message 34: by ElsaMakotoRenge (new)

ElsaMakotoRenge (mantaicysnowflake) | 164 comments Maybe you just read an icky one! I’ve come across some manga I hated and I love quite a few series:)

Lol I was on a major roll all through January but I’ve been slower this month...😂

What kind of genre(s) would you like?:) I’m absolutely obsessed with Madoka Magica right now so I shall immediately recommend that series! I just am not sure what to suggest without knowing what sort of genre you’re looking for.
Some of my personal favorites:
Sailor Moon
Madoka Magica
Non Non Biyori
Translucent
Yotsuba&!
Fullmetal Alchemist
A Silent Voice
Hibiki’s Magic

I did find Translucent and Hibiki’s Magic cheap secondhand, so I’m not sure how easy it is to find those. The other series I mentioned should be fairly easy to find.:)


message 39: by Ayamesalami (new)

Ayamesalami the genres i like is thriller, contemporary (THAT ISN'T HEAVILY FOCUSED ON ROMANCE), danganronpa (it isn't a genre but if u know it you'll get it), murder, fantasy (IF DONE CORRECTLY) and yeah
theres more but these are just the genres that i prefer in graphic novel or manga form


message 40: by ElsaMakotoRenge (new)

ElsaMakotoRenge (mantaicysnowflake) | 164 comments You have a wide range of liked genres there!:) I don’t feel competent to make recs on some of those but for fantasy I’d definitely suggest Fullmetal Alchemist (adventure series with well developed characters) and Madoka Magica (very short magical girl series...but do get past chapter 3-or episode 3 if you watch the anime-before deciding if it’s your thing or not!). You’ve probably heard all about Sailor Moon before so I’m sure you already know if you would like it or not lol.:) Yotsuba&! and Non Non Biyori are slice of life, so if you like contemporary without a bunch of romance I think you’d like those.

I’m only on volume 5 of Yona of the Dawn, but so far it’s shaping up to be an excellent fantasy series.
While there are some other series (Like Death Note...) that I know would fit your genre preferences, they are still on my want to read list, so I can’t recommend them. Yet! I’m not going to suggest series I’ve not checked out myself, lol.


message 41: by Harper Nicole (new)

Harper Nicole (harpernicole) Ugh. I'm 6 books behind. Humph.


message 42: by Harper Nicole (new)

Wow Deepthi! That's awesome!
I have to read 4.5 books a week for the rest of the year to reach my goal. Not sure if that's gonna happen.


message 45: by Harper Nicole (new)

Harper Nicole (harpernicole) Nope. Wouldn't for me!
