Berserk (manga) - author passed before finishing the series. Could end in a frustrating place story wise.
Akame ga Kill!

Some of the dialog is pretty corny.
Seeing other Marvel characters with a Symbiote is cool. More focus should’ve been given to how those character take advantage of their new abilities.
Kinda ends on a cliffhanger?
Good interaction between Carnage and Venom.

The One: The premise of this book is interesting. Everyone has a biologically perfect match. The twist is that a hacker messed with the results to get back at the scientist that discovered the gene. So at the end, you're not really sure which couples were actually "meant to be." With that in mind, some of the individual stories were lame (Mandy, Jade), and others were more interesting (Christopher, Nick, Ellie). All of the stories had slow points that could've been handled better. The slow points issue was exacerbated by the annoyingly short chapters. In conclusion, it's a quicker read (audio book ~10hr, "I don't like audio books"), and has some interesting concepts. Could be worth your time.
This is esports (and How to Spell it): 👍👍
Batman The Killing Joke: Basically a Joker origin story. Doesn’t have as much Batman as I expected. Quite enjoyable.
Superman Red Son: Better than the animation (not to say the animation is bad). I really like how they tied everything together in the end. How Lex ends up being Superman’s distant ancestor. It’s a more complete story than the animation.
The Last Wish (Witcher Series): The first book is pretty fantastic. I like how most chapters are self contained stories. Adds to Geralt’s mystique and does away with unnecessary text. As a side note, the show does pretty alright compared to the book. Especially considering they had the video game fans to think of too.
