Done pretty well this month manga is up from 42 to 44 while light novels are up from 21 to 22. One-shots also increased from 10 to 14! The backlog as usual has increased from 640 to 687, so I probably should put some actual effort into drilling that down… when I catch up with J-Novel Club after being ill…. Onwards to September!
