A Book Based on or Turned into a TV Show

Lately, I started watching an anime, a style of Japanese television animation) show called Black Butler. No, the title isn't racist! It's in reference to black magic. It's a horror and comedy show that captured my attention right away. So I decided I would try the manga, a style of Japanese comic books and graphic novels, for it.


Today, I started and finished Volume I.
It was about one hundred and eighty pages, but there are less words per page than traditional books. It was incredibly fun to read. The first volume was remarkably similar to the first three episodes which was a tiny bit annoying since I re-watched them yesterday. Anyways, it kept my attention all the same. 

I also realized the plethora of pictures make manga really fun to read. So if you're interested in trying something new and don't mind a bit of horror (it's much worse in the show- the book is mostly action), then definitely check out this book. 5 out of 5 stars.
