Our Book & Comix (comics, manga & graphic fiction) Club meets every 4th Wednesday of the month. Every once in awhile, I can't get the funding for manga (it's expensive!), so be sure to call to make sure we're having the club on the night we're supposed to, etc. You can see from our list below we have had to skip some months. But we have plenty of manga on the shelves to choose from! Email me with the series you'd like to see on our shelves. For our book selections, wWe read the latest paperbacks, and some great award winners and classics.
Best of all, if U attend 3 club meetings, U get 2 keep the third book or comix selection. Yeah, KEEP it! It's yours because U committed 2 the club, & that rox!But hey, if you can't make it into the library for our manga club, but love manga,
Check out the online manga from Viz here.
If you can't make it into the library for book club, try the recommendations from Librarina.For New Moon readers, join their Online Book Club.Here are some links to information about previous manga club selections:
