It was pretty easy for me to guess where this simple, quiet novel is heading from the moment I read the synopsis. The anthropomorphic narration of the proud, wisecracking cat Nana is pretty funny. I would argue that human-animal relationship is not the novel's main topic and only serves as a backgro...

For whatever reason, I reviewed this one after 8... oops. Anyway, I enjoyed seeing more of Tezuka's brother, and loved the tension and scheming in this one! Full of drama, both between family and friends! As always, I really enjoyed the art, characters, and writing in this one, and it's always a ple...

I really enjoyed this one. There were a lot of cute/funny moments between Dojo and Kasahara, and I loved how the side characters reacted to each event! A lot more light-hearted that the last few, but that was a nice change. This series has been pretty balanced between serious and silly, and I'm plea...

I'm glad I had this one on hand after that cliffhanger, but then again, maybe that's why I didn't enjoy this one quite as much. While I still loved the main characters in this one, I didn't love the story overall. The first half finishes the arc started in vol. 3. We have the abduction and hostage s...

Ahaha, this one had so many funny moments! I really enjoyed reading this one, and liked it even more than the first volume! I love these characters more and more with each chapter! I don't often read romance/chick lit but I'm starting to find I enjoy it a lot more now than I did even last year. This...
