Ah, basically...young woman joins a church of assassins so that she can kill the leader(s) of her country, who first deposed her house and then killed her entire family and would have killed her. Oh yeah, and she has a little shadow-cat that literally eats her fear so she isn't afraid of anything.

It's an entertaining book.

I totally know that feeling. My job is super toxic as well. Hopefully I'll be starting a new job soon though so fingers crossed! At least I can still get a bit of reading done in the subway during my commute.

Bah, I feel that's totally acceptable! I've had some manga on my list throughout the years.

Right now I'm reading Star Wars: Death Troopers. It's really exciting! Kind of like a suspense/horror thing which isn't usually my thing or a Star Wars thing so it's a nice change.

I checked out a few graphic novels from the library so I'm working on The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina vol 1 and Gotham Academy vol 1. I'm also reading the Gravity Falls: Lost Legends book. Just been in artsy mood lately. I have quite a few half read books on my kindle I really need to get back to.
