First timer in this (and any) reading challenge. Based on my lurking in previous challenge threads I’ll probably be an outlier with my reading habits because I’ve got a weird taste. I’m low on cute/slice-of-life content, and so far most of my reading was 少年 or 青年 stories. I have a soft-spot for weird stuff, but I’m not confident in my level of reading to tackle most of those yet. I also like cringe isekai/power-fantasies and coming-of-age stories. I tend to favor mangas over novels since I’ve discovered I can make the text selectable + I’ll honestly anything that’s pretty. I also have a long history of stockpiling panels & pages from manga and visit subs like R/MangaFrames to look at/share pretty art.

I’ll not miss a day (probably), I got my reading habits down this past month. I might only read a few pages on some days but I’ll fill up this calendar. I also plan to join some book clubs & will update this post afterwards to vary up my reading.

I’ve only finished one manga this year (ザ・ファブル) so far and gave up on a novel (キノの旅) half-way through. But I just finished college with my final exam yesterday so fingers crossed I’ll fare better in the coming months.
