    Cat + Gamer Vol 5 cover

    Cat + Gamer Volume Five by Wataru Nadatani

    Riko’s life was turned upside-down when she decided to adopt a cat and explore life outside of her insular, video-game-centric world. How much different will things be now that she has TWO cats? Surely, twice the furry friends mean twice the fun, yes?

    First Test cover

    First Test: Protector of the Small by Tamora Pierce and Becca Farrow, Adapted by Devin Grayson

    In this graphic adaptation of the beloved novel, a young woman takes advantage of her country’s recently liberalized laws to become a knight. But just because the laws have changed doesn’t mean that people’s attitudes have, and Kel faces enormous challenges on her way to becoming a brave fighter for justice!

    Memento Mori cover

    Memento Mori by Tiitu Takalo

    In some ways, the Finnish healthcare system did right by Takalo: she survived her unexpected cerebral hemorrhage.

Finally, with the help of her art and her loved ones, she was able to find a new normal.
