psocopteraMostly to emsariel and wayman, who were curious:
Less than a week later, I have 4 out of 5 requested manga volumes (picked up yesterday) and the fifth came in today. So, very rapid gratification on the manga requesting front. On the other hand, one of the Ranma volumes is hideously mutilated, or rather very cleverly mutilated, in that a number of pages have been sliced out from the spine, so that if you're just flipping through the book appears to be in good condition but if you're actually reading along you notice that hrm, there seems to be a page missing here. Oh, and here. Oh, and.... grrrrr. What kind of asshole rips pages out of library books? If you are so in love with that page, well, it is called a photocopier, dumbass! Are there vengeance demons specializing in abused library materials? There should be. Grr! Anyways, other than that, v. efficient. Of course Ranma and Blade of the Immortal probably not the hot stuff right now... I'm not sure what *is* the hot stuff (wonder if any libraries bought copies of Endless Nights?).
