It's Not Like It's a Secret by Misa Sugiura
3.0

a YA romance - perhaps the not the most original although I loved the alternate look at family/monogomy/marriage which redeemed the story for me. I find the narrative of relationship breakdown due to lack of openness a plot twist that I am so over. Perhaps it is so common but I find it so annoying. It is worse than plan old miss understanding - the assumptions and lack of communication and jumping to conclusions feels so avoidable.
