I didn't recognize your new dark avatar at first. BTW, where did you get the reading list from? This forum? Or did you compile it yourself?

My dark avatar is a representation of accepting my so called 'dark-side' and the things that I hate about myself but are part and parcel of me. These include things like the 'inner critic', harboured negative emotions such as shame, my sexuality, anger and so on. If left unchecked, my dark side leads me to do bad things. But making it an ally and integrating it, I am able to become whole and achieving good in my life. So don't be scared! :D

I have hundreds of books in my collection both digital and hard copy. I choose the books from my collection that represent my immediate needs such as spirituality, recovering from porn addiction, making money, developing communication skills, increasing my confidence and overcoming shame.
 

@TheLinari, check out my new reading list. I'm going to add some new novels to alternate because at night I need something light.​

I've just finished reading my first manga. It's a slice of life as they call this genre. Did I enojoy it? A bit. It took me 6 or 7 sitting to read it. It's about a boy who is a perfectionist, like me. The manga wasn't very gripping. The boy wanted to win a Kanji writing competition. He took second place and felt devastated. Maybe I'll read another installment.
