50% off manga + 20% coupon for entire purchase is a dangerous combination, especially if you only went in to grab your father's Christmas gift and the new Codex Alera book for yourself.

Spoils of war:

Antique Bakery Vol 1-2
Beauty Pop Vol 1-2
I.O.N.*
Kare Kano Vol 4-5, 9**
Short-Tempered Melancholic*
Planet Ladder Vol 1, 3-7**
Time Stranger Kyoko Vol 1-2*

^Arina Tanemura's art kind of scares me (The eyes! The eeeeyyyyyeeeeeessssss!!!) but we'll see.
**I have the omnibus collecting the first 3 volumes somewhere in the slowly-shrinking backlog.  I shall hunt it down.
***Volume 2 is going to end up one of those that it's murder to find, isn't it?

To do today:  bog manga read in the last few days and beta at least 1 of the 2 yuletide fics that I've been sent.

From what I remember of ION, I wasn't that impressed. Her art doesn't appeal to me (the eyes, dear god! they all look so removed from reality!) and the story wasn't particuraly unique or interesting. An average shoujo, I guess.
