Konya Mo Jirettai – Asada Meiko & Kitazawa Jinko
One day, a young man is found unconscious outside the shared-household where Ayato lives. Despite the warnings of one of his housemates, Ayato lets the person live with them temporarily. It turns out that the young man is Ryou, who used to be Ayato’s childhood friend back when he was two years old. Both of them had previously been separated since eleven years ago, but are now reunited.
Ayato, filled with happiness as he reminisces about their early memories, is gradually drawn to Ryou. However, Ryou appears to be glum with melancholy, as if he’s hiding something important…?!
We present to you a fresh new story of innocent affection! A Secret Love Story set under the same roof!
Meh on Ayato and Ryou. I’m shipping Maki and Asato. Give Taki his happy ending!

Lord of Butterflies – Andrea Gibson
In Andrea Gibson’s latest collection, they continue their artful and nuanced looks at gender, romance, loss, and family. Each emotion here is deft and delicate, resting inside of imagery heavy enough to sink the heart, while giving the body wings to soar.
Andrea Gibson is a new to me author and it was a pleasant surprise to discover that modern poetry is not so bad as I thought. In fact, her work strikes a chord and resonate strongly.
This is the best advice for insomnia
anyone has ever given me: TRY TO STAY
AWAKESo I try to hate this world.
And then I wait…Many of them had me blinking back some tears.
How do I say the truth isn’t the right filter?
The truth knows nothing
of who you almost were, but I do.
I just clicked a button. I undo one tiny thing:
and there you are.Yes, this definition of depression
to put on
your best outfit
and feel like you’re dressing
a wound.And there were happier thoughts too.
It’s kind of sweet actually,
what you’re given to believe
in the goodness of the world–
your own good name,
your own good light,
your own wise and grown life,
all traded for a galaxy
that wouldn’t hurt
a fly.Powerful stuff!
P.S.
I received a copy of Lord of Butterflies from Button Poetry via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

When all the good in you
starts arguing with all the bad in you
about who you really are,
never let the bad in you
make the better case.Andrea Gibson0 -
