Numbers are down a bit from August being 38 and 18 vs 59/20, but I am pleased I didn’t fall too far behind in my LN reading. Heck if you count Katanagatari as 3 books I actually accomplished more than usual. ^^;

Here’s the backlog atm, looking pretty busy since I bought a number of books off a friend of mine. Hahaha…ha.

Currently reading: Combatants Will Be Dispatched! volume 4 (LN)

Pile of shame photo time:

The one on the bottom left in the first picture in Suppose a Kid (…) light novel Volume 1, I was just too last to dig out the pile and turn it around. It was my birthday in March so that’s my excuse for the piles growing.  😛

Here’s how the piles look:

Hopefully next month I make more progress than this….
