Got an eArc from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
If you're looking for a cute and funny and cute (I've said it twice because it's really cute. Now I said it thrice.) manga, this is one of those! I really enjoyed reading this! If you're like me, who also look for a deeper meaning to these kinds of manga, I swear, you can expect to see that here.
Yagi is someone who has been doubting himself but is also headstrong. He didn't give up on wanting to be a bookstore clerk, but the self-doubt of being a goat is looming behind the curtains because goats aren't allowed in bookstores as they eat paper or the book itself. In this fast-paced manga, I'm glad I get to see Yagi accepting and the process of loving himself. Yagi the Bookshop Goat by Fumi Furukawai s a great read!
TW: Sexually Explicit Scene (Two scenes), Death of Parents, Grief, Anxiety, and Depression (search it up for more specifics or correct TW as mine is what I thought is TW while I read it)
