So I managed 49 manga up from 42, 16 light novels down from 20 and 7 one shots down from 10. Not bad given how busy life has been! Meanwhile, the backlog has increased from 261 to 349 due to a large influx of new books arriving from a friend. Hopefully that will come down a bit now work isn’t quite some crazy…
