Recs if you like Kamisama Kiss, Vol. 1 (Kamisama Kiss, #1)...

Shoujo and Josei series everyone should read.

A variety of books recommended by a librarian (appropriate for students aged 11-16 as well).

Manga that were in Shoujo Beat Magazine supposedly (I'm doing this in alphabetical order in English)

I love manga and shoujo and josei are my favorite demographics. Consider this list a potential starter pack in shoujo and josei

Manga that defined my girlhood

a list of a 99 manga's incl. ; some classic must reads , all kinds of genres to try , old and new

try out all of them to maybe find some new faves

these are some of the mangas i’ve found to be Must Reads. more so, i want a community of people who have read those and are interested in talking about it. 🫶

for all my manga lovers

Top rated manga / manhwa favs from someone who considers themselves a connoisseur of sorts. Ranging from cute and family friendly to deraged. Of course not in order. I am only adding the 1st volume per series but TRUST you have to read on...

books I read

After following the amazing antics of OfficialHellsBelles on Instagram, I have made a list of the books and authors mentioned.

Also read Jaysea Lynn’s For Whom the Belle Tolls! 💜

Updated note: several books are missing, but I requested them from the librarians. I also skipped all the Sarah J Maas books.

Action/Slice of Life/ Romance/Horror/Emotional/Hungry/Cute/Nonsense/Hot/Ugly/Sassy/Inspiring okay this is harder to describe. I honestly had trouble starting manga because THERES ALOT. Yet I will share wise advice that seem impossible but did help me. It's not about finding the type of genre, but it's finding your favorite things you enjoy in a creative world inside a manga.
