News: CSBG NANA Project Debuts!

Inspired by an unexpectedly passionate exchange in the comments of one of Danielle’s recent reviews, CSBG’s Danielle Leigh, Michelle Smith, and I have started a monthly roundtable in which we will discuss the manga in-depth.

If you are not yet one of the converted, check out my post, Why You Should Read NANA for additional information on the series.
