Loved every minute of it. It made me smile, made me cringe and cry. Such a great story.

I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea; it was a very slow and sweet story. However, tragic backstory angst just isn't my thing.

I love Kou Yoneda’s writing so much!!! And I just want a physical version so fucking bad. Why do people want to be assholes and only see for $100-$300

I read this like 10 years ago and I couldn’t remember anything of it, so I decided to re-read it now and boy, it got me emotional. Like, real tears pouring out of me.

First half of the BL is quite normal, just two people having a physical relationship, but the more time they spend together, the more they care for each other. Until one of them has to move due to work. And when the “break up” happens, it just fucking destroys you.

I don’t really know why but perhaps it got me emotional ‘cause we all have our walls and loving someone means exposing yourself. And that’s hard, man. You fall but you trust the other person will be there to catch you, and sometimes that just doesn’t happen.

Anyway, I did enjoy it but I’d say the last chapters were my fav.

Read if for the #JPLitReadathon.

I loved the story. So much angst and back history which impacted the relationship. It was difficult to follow who was speaking though. The speech bubbles were not always connected and the bubble shapes seemed to change for the person speaking. I am not sure how the title relates to the story but that is okay. I am always looking for one volume stories and this was a nice one.
