Poor Maki-chan! Classic queer struggle amplified by the homophobia of Japanese culture and traditional gender roles.

Je m'attendais pas à ce que certains sujets soient évoqués si durement, tout ça en côtoyant une certaine douceur sur d'autres pages.
Et comme dirait l'autre "Les filles les plus belles, les garçons à la poubelle"

I went into this book blindly, not knowing what I was getting myself into. It has left me with a feeling of my gut being punched. I love that each chapter is a different point of view of the characters. It helps you connect with them and it really feels like the author took time to flesh out the characters too. 

Forbidden love, and intense emotional stories! Touches heavily on topics that aren't spoken about enough in literature or in society in general.

Wow, this was very heavy! The storytelling, the visuals, the writing was all amazing.

 I love how this story highlights what heteronormativity can do to young queer women.

I definitely plan on reading more of this!

Horribly real and heart wrenching story. A lot of important and complicated topics to view in such different lights.

The art is lovely, the multiple POVs deepens the yarn of the story. I'm pulled in and weeping beside the characters, and I'll definitely follow the entire mess of this until the end.
