Library Wars: Love & War, Vol. 5 by Kiiro Yumi

4.0

I know, I know, I said I was going to savor this volume until the next two in the series arrived. But to be fair, how many bookworms have said that only to divert from the original plan!?

Until proven otherwise, Kiiro Yumi's fifth volume in the "Library Wars: Love & Wars" series is by far my favorite. Yes, it is most likely due to the intersection of themes that are dear to me (the library, allying with the Deaf and hard of hearing community, friendship and love, etc.), but I am not ashamed of that! Other readers near and far may agree.

Fans of the series will continue to see their favorite characters open up, and share their vulnerabilities. Whether you enjoy Kasahara, Shibazaki, Dojo, Tezuka, Komaki, etc. you will see another layer to what makes them "them", and what inspires their inner drive. They will also see some of the best moments of self-advocacy and courage from new characters, that in turn will inspire the reader to do the same for themselves when the time calls for it.

Alas, I must now wait for volumes 6-7, and while they cannot come soon enough I know that is Kasahara can be patient then so can I.
