”Lovely Muco!, Vol 1” by Takayuki Mizushina is a read full of giggles. Any pet lover will enjoy getting an insight into Muco's thoughts about her life with her much-beloved owner, Mr. Komatsu. Her thoughts are very much dog, and in the beginning, it's difficult to understand what Muco's obsessions with her shiny nose and chewing her blanket are all about, but as the pages turn, you get a pretty clear idea of how much this dog just want to help Mr. Komatsu and how much she loves him. Perhaps you might even get inspiration on how to understand your pet? I love the stories about their daily life in the glass art studio in the mountains. Muco brings lots of joy and entertainment every day. I love especially when Mr. Komatsu misunderstands her needs. This is a cute, relaxing, and full of-giggles read. Just what I needed.

”How To Grill Our Love, Vol 1” by Shiori Hanatsuka is a love slow-paced, heartwarming slice-of-life and full of delicious-looking drawings. I really want bbq ribs now! Fans of Yuru Camp and any cooking show/manga will enjoy this story. Kenta is on the brink of giving up on finding love. The last three dates have ghosted him, but then he meets Chihiro. Nervous he ends up bringing her to his favorite place – the local yakiniku place, where he tells all about his love of grilling meat. It's nerdy and he's embarrassed, but Chihiro likes his passion, and in return, they create together a safe place, where they can lose their masks, and finally be themself with someone else. But their love story is over too soon when Kenta is getting a job offer which means he has to move to another city. When Chihiro hears of this, she proposes marriage, and so begins their adventure of happily-ever-after love and exciting food adventures by the grill. I can never really explain in words how...

”After the Rain, Vol 1” by Jun Mayuzuki is a lovely, slow-building slice-of-life about living in the now, but also about moving forward. Tachibana is 17 years old and has a crush on her 45- year old manager at her workplace. There is nothing about this guy that screams a hunk or admirable or anything. He's a middle-aged man who has a shitty job, he's a divorcee, and at that point in life where everything is moving in slow-motion - in particular himself. He's most likely dealing with a midlife crisis. What she sees in him is unknown, but we know that Tachibana is going through a life crisis herself too. We have other characters that support the theme of standing still in life. I love when a story explores a theme in multiple ways. It makes you feel closer to the characters and their world. I would say that this is a book full of mood. There were whole pages where you had no text to support you, yet the feelings and thoughts of the characters were clear and moving. I ...
