The twins definitely have a difficult personality, especially if you're not one for loud, bossy characters. The art is still utterly fantastic in its detail, so on I go to the next volume!

The twins kinda annoyed me, but the story is still beautiful.

Mori continues to impress with her ridiculously detailed art and human stories.

Like volume 3, this volume focuses less on Amir, the bride we originally started with, and more on the people Dr. Smith meets as he travels (except even he is featured less in this volume as well). The twins, like Pariya, are loud and energetic and may be a bit much for people who preferred Amir's genuine and kind spontaneity but they're supposedly featured in the next volume as well so it seems like it will unfortunately be awhile until we focus back on Amir.

Not my favorite one in the series so far. I did like the twins, but there was far too much shouting going on. I didn't feel as invested in this story as I did in the others.

The story shifts again! love that the twins are portrayed as headstrong, annoying, and yet so romantic. It’s a fine narrative needle to thread, but Kaoru Mori does it!
Kaoru Mori has truly outdone herself. The drawings of wolves!! The exquisite nature of her under water drawings!! It is stunning to see someone draw with such talent.

I'm at volume four now, and finally I can call one of these stories an actual romance (using the term as romance writers use it, or so I understand). Twin sisters Laila and Leily think their dad's taking too long to find them husbands, so they scheme to track down their own. They end up getting engaged to the twin sons of a family friend, and the whole thing is hilarious. I'm in the local library at the moment, having just finished reading, and I had to keep stifling my giggles as I did so. The girls are... very determined, shall we say, and that's amusing, but hands down the funniest part is their father, and the grooms' father, negotiating bride price. A close second is Laila and Leily's mum putting them through what is essentially bridal boot camp, as she makes sure that they really do have the skills to run a household. Mr. Smith's there as well, basically in the background as a means to introduce the twins, but the book doesn't really need him to do anything else.
Apparently the next volume is the wedding of these two well-meaning little monsters, and I can't wait to read it.

I was apprehensive to continue with the series after reading the last volume and it's story being predominately about Mr. Smith. But then we get to meet the twins! And I LOVE the crazy twins and their story line. I am all for an out of control, boundary testing, take charge of creating their own crazy adventures type of character ... and in this case, the author gave us two! These new characters and their storyline had me reinvested in the series and excited about the story progression again.
