A little bit about what you'll find reviewed here

A little bit about what you'll find reviewed on this blog: I believe the best books involve characters you wish you could read more about long after the book is finished. Recently, I've been searching for hidden gems from the past. I read mostly fiction, and I'm a bit of a prude. I don't normally enjoy books with sex or excessive language.

Who I am:
I raised two wonderful girls, and I'm super proud of them. I enjoy reading (of course), sewing, cross stitching, photography and writing. I live in the high desert portion of Washington (which I didn't know existed until my husband and I decided to move here) and have really enjoyed my time out here. I am excited to see what God has next in store for my life!

Dr. Stone #2 - Riichiro Inagaki

I read the first volume of this last June and decided I needed to put it on my list. I also recently got a chance to check out a few of the manga I was interested in on Netflix (in anime form), and I checked out Dr. Stone. I found Taiju a bit much. He's very high energy in the manga, which is fine, but listening to him shout all the time on the show was too much for me. I decided reading the manga might be a better idea.

In this second volume, the fight against Tsukasa continues. Also, there are more people alive, and Senku and the others want to meet up with them before Tsukasa gets to them. Gunpowder is the key, but will it be enough to stop such a strong opponent?

This story just doesn't stop impressing me. I love the science used, but I'm such a nerd, that's not surprising. I love the way it's used and the way Senku thinks multiple steps ahead. I'm a bit jealous of that. I've never been good at that, which is why I suck at chess.

I'm ready to dive into more of this, but I haven't quite decided how I want to do it. With Berserk, it was easy to break it up into one tome a month, but these are smaller, and there are more of them. I'm going to put some thought into it and see what I come up with. One thing's for sure - there's more Dr. Stone in my future! Get Excited! Good Manga!
