Are you an online manga reader
Did you know manga was online and free to read?
I didn't, well I did but not to this extend.
I have been asking the teens and kids for fav titles and manga authors to add to the library, and yes I have bought lots of new stuff (almost $3000 worth) it will hit the shelves over the next few weeks.
I digress, One kid asked for Naruto, and I said we have that (turns out its all missing off the shelves , sorry my bad, but I don't have time to stand there watching who touches what.) I'm getting some more if your a naruto fan! But its online - free - for you to read!
My friend Ms Doyle also recommends OneManga and says 'my students love this site -- they can read some of their favorite manga online, another favorite is crunchyroll where they watch anime'
