This series is almost too charming for words. It's edging up towards the top five favorite mangas that I've ever read. In this installment, Kuranosuke and the Amars pull off a stunning fashion show and receive a flood of orders for their custom made dresses. Now they are faced with an even bigger challenge: how to run a growing business with no experience. They have no room for failure. The only way to save their beloved home from the redevelopment land sharks is to make enough money to buy it themselves. I am 100% invested in every aspect of this story- the entrepreneurship, the friendship, and the gentle, confused romance.

Another delightful installment of what is quickly becoming one of my favorites series. The Amars are learning on the go about the hard work needed to start up a new fashion brand. Tsukimi is becoming entangled in one of the most awkward but innocent courtships of all time, with Kuranosuke's older brother. Kuranosuke finds himself unsure of how he feels about this- was he always meant to be the fairy godmother who transformed Tsukimi into a princess, only to see her pair off with some other prince? Can he work a similar magic to transform the whole fashion world so that it recognizes the genius that he sees in Tsukimi's designs?

This book delivers on the promise of the title. I think I read the whole thing in less than 20 minutes. I hope it gets picked up by a lot of people with a desire to learn more and support their communities.

A very fun first sampler issue of a new magazine from Lion Forge with resources for new D&D players. This issue has a whole game module, which follows 5th edition rules, and could be playable with a new D&D group in a single session. Plus gorgeous illustrations, a map, and an article on modifying classic monsters with creative add-ons.
