Possibly one of the fine works I found in Netgalley in these past weeks. Thanks for the copy. Can't wait to read more from this authors.

This was the first book I've finished after a massive reader's block. I hope I'll find the next volumes because the local library only had this one 😅

I want to know more about Niko and his scar and I hope we'll get to touch upon Fynn's and Zoe's relationship.

A sweet developing romance between a star-loving nerd and his star struck classmate. I liked the character exploration and development, and of course enjoyed that they went to watch one of my favorite meteor showers! This also has one of the most tastefully done sex scenes I’ve seen in a while.

A bit too fast, but this is gooooooood

I love how smooth-sailing the storytelling is. The art style is so cute, and the characters are so adorable. I absolutely love this one! I still can't believe that I shunned this manga in the past—THIS WAS SO GOOD. I'm such a dork for not reading this one sooner. Definitely heading for the volume 2 next!

Disaffected and unmotivated, Fynn kind of just cruises through life. He’s often described as lazy. His favorite activities include smoking and skipping class. When his girlfriend Zoe accuses him of caring for nothing and breaks up with him, Fynn is left at a loss.

Does he care for anything?

When he comes across a stranger stargazing one night, Fynn discovers he can still be intrigued. Niko doesn’t care very much for Fynn’s smoking or lackadaisical attitude. The smoking is bad for the environment and the attitude is just obnoxious.

Niko is absolutely fascinating to Fynn.

While learning to love Niko’s beloved stars, will Fynn perhaps find himself loving something—or someone—else even more?

This is so cute!

I love stories that feature characters who are polar opposites of each other. Especially when the narrative uses those differences to help the characters learn more about themselves and the world—it’s absolutely so satisfying. I adore watching characters grow together.

This story is so quaint and tender. I’m definitely looking forward to reading more~

I saw this cover and I had high hopes for this story.  Another sweet love story.  This isn't Japanese.  It's written by people from possibly Germany or somewhere up in Europe.  I wasn't aware that Europe was writing Boys Love Manga.  I guess the whole world is into it now.

The beginning of the story happens super fast.  Our main character is a slacker and boom, he's being broken up with.  Then, boom, his love shows up and that's that.   It's fine, it does happen in life like that to some people, especially in high school.  How lucky for them.  anyway.  I think they should have just started the story after the breakup.  That would have been background info.  There really wasn't any need to see that.    

The artwork is lovely and I love that the interest in the story is star gazing.  It's so romantic on its own.  I can't wait for the second volume.  I hope we get to see more of this budding relationship.
