Some new books, huzzah!

After the Fruits Basket volume, I'm on a manga binge. Ack, I can't help myself!!! I've started a separate blog to keep track of all the manga I've been looking into and am interested in.

Went to an old store I haven't been on in forever and bought 3 new series for $40, about $15 cheaper than I would have gotten on Amazon (yikes). I bought MeruPuri, Bride of the Water God, and The Devil Does Exist. I'm really excited because I've been looking into the last one for a while but never brought myself to buy it. Well, now I have, and I just have to wait for it to arrive....I hate waiting. >_>



I really need to get covering those books...they're already tearing on the edges and some of the pages are turning yellow now, too. Also need to reread them, especially since I have to wait 2-4 months between each new one. Geez, and the Saiyuki series I read is still ongoing in Japan, so the next release isn't until June, over a year from the last one! What the freaking A!
