Another great volume with some interesting mushi. There were a lot of bonus stories too that I enjoyed. The author always gives some fun stories about their family

For thoughts on the series overall and what Mushishi is about see this review for the first volume: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/9488184)

I enjoyed this volume as much as I did volume four and the ones before that. The story of the girl who grabbed onto the thread of mushi living in the sky was probably the best, but the others were thought-provoking and haunting as well.

Although there weren't any stories about a person going blind in this one, blindness was still mentioned and one person disappeared completely! More than once! This volume seemed to have a theme of mushi that draw you into their world and away from the human world. This volume also had another interesting thing in that we got to see a whole group of mushishi. There are more than I'd imagined, I wonder how one goes about becoming one...I'd like to be one. It seems like a good job. Especially if I got to stay in one place like a Mountain Master or something. Unlike Ginko I'm more of a homebody, I don't think I'd like traveling so much alone. I would miss my family. In the world of mushishi though it seems that as much as you want to keep the connections with loved ones, sometimes it becomes near impossible, sometimes they just disappear never to be seen again, or you forget who you were and that they even existed. In a way it's a very lonely series.
