月刊少女野崎くん3
地球星人
After 4 months of sneaking in micro reading sessions, I finally finished reading the 3rd volume of 野崎くん! It feels like the end of an era. Of course, there are several more volumes waiting on my bookshelf for me still, and don’t get me started on the volumes I haven’t bought yet…
One of my favorite things about the 野崎くん series are the hidden comics underneath the dust jacket. It’s such a fun idea. I always save those for last as a bonus treat for finishing. The takeaway from both the front and back covers is that Kashima is clueless when it comes to her 先輩.
For today, I finished Week 1 in the 地球星人 Book Club! 奈月, the protagonist, has an interesting conversation with her cousin involving his mother. She apparently told her son that he’s an alien from another planet and they picked him up one evening. This is probably not true, in which case, his mother sure did tell him something really f’ed up. I’ve been told this book gets pretty dark, so I’m eager to continue reading and find out how true that is.
