So, this book. Goodreads has been recommending it to me for at least a year, but every time I looked at it, I just didn't feel a spark of interest. After seeing so many bloggers and reviewers fawning over the series and the author, however, I decided it was about time I gave this book a try. After a...
When I was young, I watched an anime series called Now and Then, Here and There and it was a difficult series to watch: full of brutality, violence, even rape, and kids actually watched this.
