I'm so glad my sister recommended this to me and that it was readily available at the library. I loved it! I read it in about one or two sittings and immediately wanted to read the next book in the series. I have to wait, but once I get my chance, I'm taking it!

I love how the book blends cute-wholesomeness with darkness. The two main characters are great, both in art style and personality, and the beginning of the plot has me eager to keep reading. I hope the next book is as good as the first!

this is the first manga i have read in a while!! i think i'm definitely going to continue this series! the monsters are what i liked the best! and i think it's interesting how nagabe twisted the good/human vs evil/other trope.
