悪魔とラブソング 5 by Miyoshi Tomori

4.0

Oh Maria. Amazingly sincere Maria, light of my life, star of my days. Do you know how much I love this series? I went to the bookstore and saw that this and a new volume of Skip Beat was out and I picked this up first.

It's okay if you need a minute to recover. I was shocked at myself too.

But Maria! I don't think I've ever seen a character so unfailingly optimistic about her potential and relationships. Fact: Maria Kawai does not understand how to give up on people. People includes herself, her friends, her former friends, her people-determined-to-hate-her-but-can't-because-they-are-bowled-over-in-the-face-of-such-overwhelming-honesty-and-sincerity. I'm going to have to pair her with Tohru Honda and the cast of Sailor Moon in Excellent Teen Girl Role Models 101. 4.5 stars

P.S. Anna Mouri, I believe in you! Girl I know you're not going to be another backstabbing redux plotline, I look forward to seeing humane depths to you.
