Video Games
Ace Attorney (series)
It started with a purchase of the first game, Phoenix Wright, on the Wii shop channel ($10! Good deal). Then the following occurred over the course of the month:

• Finished the game (in three days *cough*).
• Completed Justice for All and Trials and Tribulations (Apollo Justice & Miles Edgeworth: Investigations are waiting patiently in queue).
• Spent 2 days figuring out how to put custom ringtones on my phone (For inquiring minds, search for “Cornered – Variation (v3.0)” on this page. Man, that site is great.)
• Purchased an “official artwork” book on impulse (yes, my first venture into the Manga section of the bookstore).

I don’t think I have to continue this review any longer. However, do know that I’m still undergoing a search for a tiny Edgeworth figurine for my office. (I knew I should have bid on that ebay auction when I saw it.)

Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon
Certainly not my favorite game of the series, but I can’t deny it. It’s Fire Emblem, after all. Full review here, if you’re not tired of listening to me talk of it.

Books
Three of the four novels undertook this month weren’t exactly “light reading.” Ergo, I’m a tad behind on my literary ventures. July will be better. (As always, click for reviews.)
Rabbit Angstrom, John Updike
The Giver, Lois Lowry
What is the What, Dave Eggers
