Pick of the Week: New Titles and Beloved Favorites

MICHELLE: I am very tempted to choose Yona of the Dawn here, because it’s so great, but man that cover of I See Your Face, Turned Away has just hooked me with its simplicity. I’m most curious about that one, this week!

SEAN: I really enjoy the works by this author, so my pick is their new one shot light novel, True Love Fades Away When the Contract Ends – One Star in the Night Sky.

ASH: Both of those appeal to me as well, but I’m going with Mobsters in Love as my official pick. I’ve read other series with similar premises, but it amuses me and I’ve really enjoyed the BL selections from Square Enix thus far.

ANNA: Yona of the Dawn for me!

KATE: I like the cover of I See Your Face Turned Away–so moody!–but I need something a little sillier to get me through finals week, so I cast my vote for Monster Cats.
