WG: Catching up on reviews (reviews? what reviews?)

This week's Weekly Geeks left me scratching my head. Our assignment this time is to list the books we haven't reviewed yet, and get other readers to ask questions. Not difficult, right? Just list the books and wait for questions!
Here's the thing -- I haven't reviewed anything the whole year. Possibly nothing since July last year. I think the last reviews I did were for a same task when Dewey posted about it way back then, and even then I didn't manage to answer all the questions. (Awful, aren't I.) But I still want to participate this time, so here's the list.
I've decided to be kind to myself and post only the titles of the books I read this year. Here goes:
June

[manga] Descendants of Darkness Volume 4 by Yoko Matsushita
