Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews. It's an opportunity for everyone to share the new books that we've acquired.
I've never read manga before, but I LOVE the Ouran High School Host Club anime, own the series on Blu-Ray, and have had my eye on the box set of all the manga volumes since it was released last year. Thanks to an Amazon gift card and some reward points available to redeem, I finally got it. I love how all of the individual volumes are packaged in one cool case, and there's even a convenient carrying handle on top of the box. I can't wait to start reading these because I absolutely adore these characters!

The anime was incredible, so I'm excited to see how the manga compares. I'm sure it's going to be awesome, too.
DeleteI look forward to hearing what you think of Magna/Graphic Books. I'm a bit hesitant to read them myself.
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge fan of the Ouran anime, so I just had to check out the manga, too. Ally is the manga/anime expert in the family, so I just ask her for recommendations, lol.
DeleteThe Madman's Daughter is one of the best books I've read this year. It was also the very first book I read in 2013. LOVED IT. I cannot wait for the second book! Enjoy your books!
ReplyDeleteHere's my haul
I've wanted to read it for ages, and I couldn't resist buying it when it was a Kindle Daily Deal. Glad to hear you loved it!
DeleteRead the first couple of Ouran High School, the boxset looks great. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I wish the anime had been more episodes; I'm hoping to find out even more about the characters in the manga.
DeleteYay, your first Manga! I've heard awesome things about Ouran but I have yet to read it. The box set looks beautiful though! I hope you enjoy :)

Thanks! The anime is awesome, so I'm sure I'm going to love the manga, too!
DeleteI'm excited to see what you think of your Manga box set. It's beautiful! Jaclyn @ JC's Book Haven.
ReplyDeleteI'd been pining for the set since I first saw it, and I'm thrilled to finally own it! :D
DeleteGreat haul!!! I wasn't the biggest fan of "The Madman's Daughter" but I hope you like it better than me!
ReplyDeleteIt's so cool that the box set has a carrying handle :D.
Thanks for stopping by :D.
The set also came with a cute little notepad featuring all of the characters on it. I just love how they went all out with the details for the packaging!
DeleteI never would've thought you like Manga! Cool fun fact about you, Lee!
ReplyDeleteI became obsessed with the anime series (and still kind of am) after Ally introduced me to it, which then made me want to read the manga. I knew nothing about anime or manga until Ally started educating me about both, lol.
DeleteThe Madman's Daughter sounds so good! I need to read this :D
ReplyDeleteMy Showcase Sunday
When I saw it on sale at Amazon, I couldn't resist. I'm looking forward to reading it!
DeleteI'll have to let my HS anime fans know about those manga. I bet they'd enjoy them. I read The Madman's Daughter and have very mixed feelings about it. I hope you are less conflicted when you read it. Come see what I got this week at Ms. Martin Teaches Media and Inside of a Dog. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that The Madman's Daughter didn't quite work out for you. I hope to have better luck with it!
DeleteHopeless. Sigh..... I love that book.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading!
I couldn't pass up the sale price! I still have to read Slammed, too; it's been sitting around on my shelf for ages.
DeleteWow, that boxed set looks incredible^^ I enjoy manga sometimes so I really must look up that series! Thanks for bringing it to my attention!
ReplyDeleteI've heard GREAT things about Madman's Daughter and Hopeless so I hope you enjoy those ones as well :) Happy reading!
The story lines in the Ouran anime were fantastic, and I can't wait to read them in their entirety, plus the ones that didn't make it into the anime, in the manga.
