Now that I've tried all three versions of The Apothecary Diaries, I think the best version is the anime, because it's a 1:1 adaptation of the light novel that makes improvements. However, my favorite version is the manga, because that was my first exposure. The light novel is my least favorite.

#Nowreading the first volume of The Apothecary Diaries #lightnovel. I've read the manga and seen season one of the anime, so I'm excited to see what the differences are. From what I hear, each volume is equal to approximately 4 volumes of the manga.

Well, I was going to post that I'm #nowreading The Centaur's Bride by Tamsin Ley, but I'm no longer #currentlyreading it, because I read the whole thing last night. It's pretty tame for a monster romance #book. It is the first thing I've read with horse shifters, though.

#Nowreading The Magician's Lie by Greer Macallister. All I know is it's recommended for people who like Water for Elephants and The Night Circus, which are both things I enjoyed.

#nowreading The Clockwork Three by Matthew J. Kirby. I have no idea what this #book is about, only that it is a stand alone children's #novel.

Now that I have the Barnes & Noble exclusive edition of volume one with extra content, it's the perfect time to get caught up on the Apothecary Diaries manga with a reread.

Tried R.E.P.O for the first time today, and I absolutely love it.

#nowreading Dahlia by Tabitha Barret, number 5 in the Spell Library series. I sometimes read Spell Library when I need a change of pace or want something funny. I actually completely forgot the series existed since I haven't read any of it since 2021. #booksky
