A review by mary_rose
Hybrid Child by Shungiku Nakamura

3.0

Overall, I didn't find the book exceptional, but I did like it. I found the first chapter really fun and cute. The second was cute if not a bit awkward with the almost sex scene with the master and child. The final story, however, was just... It was beautiful and tragic. The tragedy, however, just... I don't feel like it belonged. I found it extremely jarring because there was no hint of tragedy in the first two chapters and it suddenly came out of nowhere! Sometimes stories need to end with tragedy, but I feel like this one didn't need it. It just felt... Out of place. This could be that I'm just salty over how sad I am, but you know... I stick by what I say.

And to think that this was done by the Junjou Romantica creator!! BAH! My final book of 2016.
