![]() Kugou's feelings gradually developed due to actually spending time with Usui, so he got to see how cute Usui is (and my goodness, he is really cute ^^). Instead of any of the characters randomly falling in love after being confessed to or even raped (we all know how often that trope is used in the BL realm!), To be honest I think what I liked the most about this, is that despite only having 40-something pages, the romance was perfectly paced. I knew right from the first page that there was going to be a happy and satisfying ending, and of course I wasn't disappointed in the least. ![]() It is very predictable right from the start, (honestly if you don't automatically know what the supposed "twist" is going to be, then I seriously wonder about you), but I like that. (I just love men with pierced ears, and all 3 of the main characters do!) Of course the art is totally delicious, the characters are all good looking, manly men that have impeccable fashion sense in my opinion. ![]() ![]() As everyone else has already mentioned how great the title story is, I feel that I should stress how much I love one of the other oneshots in this (as it doesn't have it's own page here on MU), Kanjou Spectrum. ![]()

There is a thing she will think over and over in the days to come, as she imagines how her son died and tries to make sense of something so innately senseless.

Fungi provide a key to understanding the planet on which we live, and the ways we think, feel, and behave. Most fungi live out of sight, yet make up a massively diverse kingdom of organisms that supports and sustains nearly all living systems. But mushrooms are only fruiting bodies, analogous to apples on a tree. When we think of fungi, we likely think of mushrooms.

Iqunga by Dudu Busani-Dube Mpho Bernadette 's review liked it Had I not re-read the first three books and went through her storylines on the Hlomu Series website, this review would have gone completely differently, and in all honesty, I would have been completely lost. The past part, also reveals how the brothers first killed. This consultation (based on my understanding) is the catalyst to the troubles they are now facing in their lives, which is being cursed with Iqunga. The details as to what was said during the consultation are not specified and will probably be revealed in another book. When their grandmother was pregnant with their father and his twin brother, their grandfather went to consult with a traditional healer, and when he came back, his wife gave birth to the twins, and the grandfather immediately died.

And there is a sense, in the case of Obama, in which his life did depend on it, sociologically and psychologically. To pull this off requires not just vocal ability but an intensity of observation of other people-a quality of attention, of absorption-so fierce it’s as if one’s life depended on it. He can do men and women, old and young, foreign accents and street slang. Again and again he will encounter a character and deliver the material that appears within quotation marks on the printed page in the character’s voice. His regular speaking voice is by now in all our heads, but in the spoken version of the book we also get something that has had to be put away from public display: Obama’s uncanny gift for mimicry. It’s worth listening to the audiobook version of Barack Obama’s Dreams From My Father, because not so long ago Obama had both the time and the inclination to spend many hours voicing the recording himself. ![]() |
