Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #Sounding(3)

Suki Na Hito Hodo

Complete | harada | 2014 released

Not the most likeable characters but interesting stories. A little too much focus on the rapist cross dresser in the first story for my liking, and the second was rape with a minor. The twist gave it some redemption but it was still not my kind of preference to read. Interesting to see sounding play but it was forced so it was overall a disappointment.

Renai Junkie

Trigger Warning: Incest (Brother x Brother) Multiple stories that were all enjoyable for different reasons. The main story had the best character development and it was sweet how some of the loneliness of being a neglected child of a narcissistic mother was addressed with a caring partner. The second story had some unexpected twists that caught me by surprise and I found the whole inability to get an erection was interesting especially given the feelings between the MCs. There was something sweet about the yearning to catch Yoshida’s shadow. The third story of the two brothers was just too short to do justice to such a subject, but it was still a good read. Wtf was up with that cat though? It was like the reincarnated form of some manly old pervert. The last story was a sequel and was great for the switching roles. Be sure to read the main story first.

Chou to Hana no Kankeisei

Complete | Akabeko | 2017 released

All these stories were good, but the main story about puppy like masochist Hanada Sakutarou, and the insouciant sadist Chouno was simply *chefs kiss. Be sure to read the prequel first; Chou to kumo no su. I loved their dynamic. Chou was a pure caretaker, the perfect S to help Hanada safely push his M boundaries. Given his background, it’s even more special that he was able to be true to his own nature with his loving partner who was so responsive to his touch. Plenty of kinks, sexy and hot with sweet aftercare. Loved it.
