Was bedeutet eigentlich "Streetwork"? Die junge Künstlerin Anne Zimmermann, ausgerechnet zum ersten Corona-Lockdown neu in Berlin angekommen, wollte es genauer wissen und begleitete über mehrere Monate mehrere Streetworker:innen des Gangway e. V., der seit 30 Jahren auf den Straßen Berlins unterwegs ist und dort "Straßensozialarbeit" vor allem mit Jugendlichen macht. Ihre daraus entstandene Graphic Novel enthält Geschichten und Anekdoten aus dem Arbeitsalltag der Held:innen der Straße. Der berührende, oft auch überraschend humorvolle, aber immer authentische Band eignet sich nicht nur hervorragend für junge Menschen, die überlegen, die Jugend- und Straßensozialarbeit zu ihrem Beruf zu machen, auch wer zum Beispiel schon immer wissen möchte, wer sich etwa um die Obdachlosen in unserer Stadt kümmert, erfährt hier einiges.
Der mehr als wunderbare Finalband, dieser ausgereiften, erwachsenen "Yuri"-Reihe. <3 Ich freute mich sehr, dass die Bände nach und nach vermuten ließen, dass die Beziehung bzw. Verbindung der beiden Frauen in Richtung Aromantik/Asexualität (in unterschiedlichen Graden) gefestigt wird. Die Nebenfiguren sind sehr wertschätzend und unterstützend, man möchte eigentlich mit allen gemeinsam eine große Packung Donuts verköstigen und dabei über die Anforderungen und Freuden des Erwachsenenlebens plaudern. Egal, was die Mangaka noch herausbringt, sie wird in mir wieder eine begeisterte Leserin finden!
Dass nach Shio Usuis "Doughnuts under a Crescent Moon"-Reihe eine neue Girls Love Reihe der Mangaka auf mich warten würde, habe ich doch sehnlichst erhofft. In ihrem neusten Werk begleiten wir zwei Frauen, die beschließen, einander zu heiraten, wenn sie nach 5 Jahren immer noch Single sind. Die Zeit ist herum und beide erinnern sich an das Versprechen und der Manga nimmt uns mit in das Alltagsleben einer Journalistin und einer Köchin, die eigentlich kaum unterschiedlicher sein könnten. Beide versuchen mit der Situation locker umzugehen, doch das Umfeld schaut ganz besonders auf diese "Freundinnen-Ehe", die vermutlich für einige kuriose Blicke und Gedanken sorgt. Zudem schreibt Kurumi in ihrer neusten Kolumne ganz öffentlich darüber. Als Lesende bemerken wir von Anfang an, dass Ruriko bereits zarte Gefühle für Kurumi entwickelt hat. Ich bin den beiden so gern gefolgt und wünsche mir für ihre Geschichte noch sehr viel Zeit. Der absolute Cuteness-Overload dieses Bandes speist sich eigentlich komplett aus der liebevollen Interaktion der beiden, die füreinander da sein wollen und sich umeinander kümmern.
Do you remember a time before the corona crisis? For Brits (and lots of other Europeans) that too was an era defined by crisis, thanks to the ups and downs of almost half a decade of Brexit discussions.

Jonathan Coe's novel begins at the very beginning of the 2010s when Brexit was barely imaginable and follows the lives of a group of characters from across Britain's many middle classes during the turmoil-there's plenty of that in their private lives too.

Coe is a remainer and it shows but he understands and can even sympathise with his political opponents and this is a pretty fair depiction of England's division. More importantly than that though, it is hysterically funny - I literally lol-ed more than once while reading it (not least during the most awkward sex scene I have ever had the (dis)pleasure of encountering).

A novel for those who seek the solace of other crises in difficult times or for Germans who want reminding that others this side of the Atlantic have it worse.
A classic I ran across on my neverending to-read pile and finished within a few hours. The simple writing style made it enjoyable and easy to read, even if it was first published in 1900 and the language is somewhat rigid. It becoming a classic is well deserved - though I must say I'm not interested in the volumes that follow after this first one.

Justin Roiland grew up in Manteca, California, where he did the basic stuff children do. Later in life, he traveled to Los Angeles. Once settled in, he created several popular online shorts for Channel 101. Some notable examples of his work (both animated and live action) include House of Cosbys and Two Girls One Cup: The Show.

Justin is afraid of his mortality and hopes the things he creates will make lots of people happy. Then maybe when modern civilization collapses into chaos, people will remember him and they'll help him survive the bloodshed and violence. Global economic collapse is looming. It's going to be horrible, and honestly, a swift death might be preferable than living in the hell that awaits mankind. Justin also really hates writing about himself in the third person. I hate this. That's right. It's me. I've been writing this whole thing. Hi. The cat's out of the bag. It's just you and me now. There never was a third person. If you want to know anything about me, just ask. Sorry this wasn't more informative.

Born in the sleepy suburban town of Modesto, California, Abed Gheith grew up surrounded by He-Man toys, Jim Henson properties, and Superman comics. At a young age, he was always using his imagination to play outside by his lonesome. While other kids were getting broken legs and playing sports, he was coming up with ideas and stories and pretending he was an action movie star. Fast-forward to adulthood, Abed moved to Los Angeles at 23 with his friends Justin Roiland and Sevan Najarian. Together, they created the cult Internet sensation House of Cosbys for Channel101.com. This led to writing two episodes of Rick and Morty with his brother, Rashad. Nowadays, Abed works as a story consultant on shows for Disney and Cartoon Network, and in his spare time writes comic books. He is the inspiration for the character Abed Nadir on the NBC sitcom Community and occasionally co-hosts on a podcast called Gone Riffin' with Rich Fulcher.

R.Y. Gheith is a writer who spends an unhealthy amount of time reading comics, playing fantasy online games, and planning his next step toward musical pop stardom.
