The most light, beautiful series I've read. Can't wait to read the next volume!

I enjoyed the illustrations in this graphic novel, and thought the story was kind of cute, although it felt like it moved too slow and before I knew it, the book was over. In this story, Josh has a crush on Nicole, and she fights her crush on him. He comes off as a player, which turns her off and makes her hesitant to get involved with him. However, he genuinely likes her and it's not just about adding her number to the rest of his stash. The whole book seems to revolve around him chasing her and trying to get her to spend time with him and let him be her boyfriend. Interspersed in the story is a fantasy story that she is writing in her dreamlog. She kind of hides her story from other people, and hides the fact that she still enjoys reading fairy tales and using fantasy and fairy tales as an escape.
There's only one other book in this "series" and from what I have read about it, it seems to flip flop the story some on the romantic angle, and focus more on Nicole's writing.

Not a fan.
Maybe reading so many English translated mangas has spoiled me, but this just seemed to fall flat. Nicole is not endearing, her friend Sarah has no depth and Josh is just a desperate weirdo. The only real interesting thing is the dream that Nicole has and continues to write about. I thought there would be more to that, but the whole story dragged on about Josh trying to get Nicole to go out with him.
I know this is part one of a two part series, but I wasn't left with a feeling of needing to know what becomes of the characters. Even Ellon being left in the lurch isn't interesting enough for me.
Too bad.
