This light novel may be one of my favorites. I love the world building and the way the author tells the story. This #mangatheme reading month has really exposed me to some different and yet highly entertaining stories! I'm finding I truly connect with the writing of these authors. #bookspin @thearomaofbooks

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!!! 9mo

I read Naoki‘s first book years ago & loved it. Naoki provides insight into the world of a nonverbal Autistic person. I read a lot of books about Autism since my middle child is on the Spectrum. I am also currently doing a leadership graduate training program with a focus on Autism. So I read & listen to lots of experts in Autism, which is helpful. But there is nothing that can replace what the experiences are of an Autistic person. #bookspin

TheAromaofBooks Great progress!! And I love this cover!! 3y

October #bookspinboard,2 books & 1 bailed book for LMBPC. Not much progress for the month since I was preparing for my thesis proposal defense (which I passed, woohoo). But a lot of time was spent editing & such. 5 more weeks left in the semester & then a month off, then 2 more classes & I‘m done (which is still surreal)

Julsmarshall Congratulations on passing your thesis proposal defense! 3y
TheAromaofBooks Great progress this month!!!! 3y

September #bookspinbingo board. Oh how I would love to read all of these books but alas life is too busy, but I will try to read a few. In addition to kids back in school, graduate school, I have been accepted into a graduate training program. I will be doing seminars on leadership in neurodiversity and clinical rotations so I‘m very excited but also about to be even busier.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! Good luck!!! 3y

#bookspin list for September, I have been in a reading funk for the month of August. I have had too much going on between working on my thesis, going back to school, kids back to school, & everything in between. I am hoping I can do a little more reading to have some down time this month

TheAromaofBooks So aggravating when life interferes with reading!!!! 3y

I LOVED this book! I‘m loving Japanese literature!

Breasts and Eggs paints a portrait of contemporary womanhood in Japan and recounts the intimate journeys of three women as they confront oppressive mores and their own uncertainties on the road to finding peace and futures they can truly call their own. #japaneseliterature #japaneseauthor #japanesebooks

While I was reading I found many connections like poverty, environmental destruction, and etc. The protagonist is trying to help with these problems, while also uniting their people. Throughout the section of the story that I was reading there were many occurences where the protagonist had to sacrifice an important object/person to help fix a problem.
