Book Review: And Yet, You Are So Sweet by Kujira Anan

And Yet, You Are So Sweet (Volume 1) by Kujira Anan is a manga style graphic novel. Maaya Kisaragi, 16 years old, finally confessed to her crush...only to be flatly rejected and ridiculed on social media after. To make matters worse, the most popular guy in her grade, Chigira-kun, overheard her despondent muttering about the whole thing. But instead of making fun of her, he comforts her...and proposes an odd solution to her heartbreak!
And Yet, You Are So Sweet is a sweet graphic novel about crushes and figuring out what you really want. Maaya usually has a crush, and does the stalker like actions to find out more about them and get to see them more. Being a fan of another is fairly low risk, and that is how she likes it. Chigira is popular, with his share of girls crushing on him, but he seems to have no interest in them, but plenty in Maaya. I love romance when both characters are good people, but clueless about how the other feels about them. I enjoyed getting to know both characters, and seeing them dance around their feelings as they struggle to come to terms with them. I really enjoyed the story, and will be on the look out for volume two.
