Perfect Addiction 1

Perfect Addiction 1 by Kaoruko Miyama

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


I wanted to like this one, but it feels like it's still missing a lot of pieces. Akihito comes across as a playboy who really doesn't seem to care for his partners at all and is obviously into girls. It's rather surprising then that he is so willing to not only play Sae's boyfriend when he sees him struggling to get away from another guy in front of a hotel, but also at least start a physical relationship with him. Sae is portrayed as always being aloof, but it turns out in part this is likely due to his orientation and his search for love, the exact opposite of how Akihito behaves. It's not so surprising that Sae would become attached given his romantic outlook compared with actually enjoying their encounters compared to his claims from previous relationships, but he's also convinced he can never actually get what he wants with Akihito. There are some redeeming qualities towards the end of the book that will hopefully be built on in the sequel, but that's yet to be seen since it hasn't been released yet.

Tomorrow, Make Me Yours

Tomorrow, Make Me Yours by Kaoruko Miyama

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Yuki is very shy and reserved, but is also very drawn to Hayato, who seems very open and friendly with everyone in class. By some miracle he can't understand, Hayato seems to be interested in befriending him, and even more than that. Yuki is convinced with his own withdrawn nature, he'd only be a burden to his new friend, but it turns out distance is the exact opposite of what either of them truly want. A bit fast paced, but considering the story is all inclusive in a single volume, it's also sweet how these two find their way together.
