Musing Monday & Manga Monday

Created & Hosted by The Purple Booker 
Musing Mondays asks you to muse about one of the following each week…
I’m currently reading…
Up next I think I’ll read…
I bought the following book(s) in the past week…
I’m super excited to tell you about (book/author/bookish-news)…
I’m really upset by (book/author/bookish-news)…
I can’t wait to get a copy of…
I wish I could read ___, but…
I blogged about ____ this past week…

This week's question: 
I’m currently reading…

My Answer:
I've been in a reading slump for a while. 
I have always been a huge fan of billionaire romance which seemed to be just what I needed. 
I'm over half way done with Royal Ruin by Jessica Peterson and can't put it down. It's exactly what I needed to pull me out of this funk.  

Synopsis
SUBJECT: Engagement Contract (Marked Confidential) 
From The Desk of His Royal Highness Prince Christopher 

Emily—Thank you for joining me for dinner tonight. And for agreeing to my proposal, as ludicrous as it is. Desperate times call for fake engagements. At least in my family. 

I am attaching the contract we discussed. Our lawyers asked that I highlight the following clauses: 

• The engagement shall last ninety days 
• Both parties are to appear genuinely in love at all royal appearances 
• Beyond required public displays of affection, there shall be no contact of any kind between the parties 

The first half of your payment will be deposited into your account upon the signing of this contract. Be sure to note your ring size. We would like to make prompt delivery of the family emerald. The Queen and I thank you in advance for your discretion. 

Cheers, 
Kit 
P.S.—Sorry to hear about your divorce. Your ex sounds like a proper knob head. 

P.P.S—You looked stunning tonight.

Manga Monday
Created by Alison Can Read
I don't see it as a current weekly on her blog but she does have a great list of manga's that she's read or reading. Be sure to check her out. 

I haven't been reading nearly as many manga this year as I would have hoped. It's been tough finding one that captures my attention enough to be hooked. I'm almost done with the Harley Quinn comics or at least current so I'll need to start a new one. 

Currently, I think I'm going to give 
Say I Love You by Kanae Hazuki a shot. It sounds different and maybe it's just what I need to drag me out of my funk. 

Synopsis

Mei Tachibana has no friends—and she doesn’t need them! Ever since her “friends” betrayed her in elementary school, she’s sworn off friendship entirely. All it leads to is betrayal and heartbreak, and she’s well enough on her own. But everything changes when she accidentally roundhouse kicks the most popular boy in school! However, Yamato Kurosawa isn’t angry in the slightest— in fact, he thinks his ordinary life could use an unusual girl like Mei! He won’t take no for an answer, and soon Mei and Yamato embark on an unwanted friendship that will change both of them forever.  

Anyone else reading a Manga /comic this week?
