Pick of the Week: Chi-licious

Welcome to Manga Bookshelf’s Pick of the Week!

Buy this book – This week, we recommend another new arrival, volume two of Chi’s Sweet Home, published by Vertical, Inc. Chi’s Sweet Home is the story of a stray kitten who finds a new home for herself with a loving family in a (supposedly) pet-free apartment building.

The series is funny and sweet, with the cutest artwork you’ll ever see. It’s also surprisingly poignant and provides some startling insight into the complicated relationship between human and feline.

Volume two addresses kitty frustrations that many humans will relate to as well, and offers up the same light humor mixed with deeper emotional underpinnings (for those who are looking).

Expect a full review of volumes one and two here in the near future. In the meantime, check out the second volume of this adorable series for yourself!

Keep up with all of this week’s new manga with help from Boston’s own Comicopia.
