CL - Book Genre Challenge Swap Feb 19

Need to get out of your comfort zone in reading? Find "read x no. of books" to be too mundane to be a challenge? Looking to try a book in a new-to-you genre? Or looking for an excuse to read a book off your Mt. To Be Read? Every month, we'll explore a different genre by reading a single book and sharing our thoughts with our partner. This is a returning swap, it used to be hosted in Carpe Librum earlier, by @KateKintail Welcome, & Welcome back :)

February genre is a modified "genre" Graphic Novel/Manga Manga is a very special kind of books, for which one has to familiarize oneself with right-to-left reading! For this swap, pick any graphic novel, which, some people think, is a lofty name for comics. So, yes, pick up a comics of your favourite series, or, if you think comics are for kids, a revelation awaits you!
