Slowly making my way through the Hills of Silver Ruins, A Pitch Black Moon, I’m about midway through book two so far and I’m absolutely loving it, I’ll have to find time to do a proper reaction post, lord knows I’ve been yelling at my all of two? Three friends who’ve even heard of this series and definitely one friend who is just beholden to my yelling and giving me emotional support in this time of fanboy need. (Lol hi miukuromi).

Was genuinely not expecting to fall back as hard and intensely as I have in this series but before I knew it, I’d absolutely pulverized my way through all of Taiki’s arc over the course of the first half of this month which is..l I’m gonna say impressive for me considering my greatly diminished focus capacity and how busy I’ve been latley with work being in the thick of the Busy Season for us!

I’ve doubled if not tripled my Doujinshi collection for this series (including grabbing some absolute treasures of books from ‘95 and ‘97!) and have finally been hunting down the shinchosha paperbacks of the novels, (only missing two of the fifteen now, the second volume of Youko’s first novel and Dreaming of Paradise, the short story collection!) and most recently have picked back up on my effort to typeset the fan-translations of the novels to bind for my very own!

I don’t know when I’ll be able to print and finalize my designs, there’s a lot of moving parts and things I want to include since this has been like, the one big project I’ve wanted to undertake since I got into book binding and..l I want it to be, if not perfect, as good as I can make it! I want it to be as close to my dream release as possible with what’s available to me and within my means of accomplishing.

All this to day, I’m hoping to post a little more frequently here in the vein of fannish ramblings because I am just absolutely beside myself with uncontainable feelings about this series ~~and my OTP~~ and all the cool stuff happening in the new book!
