Its got 2 cute stories. I really liked the first one. I'd say this was more shoujo than Josei though it ended up in the list of Josei when I did a search. Still I enjoyed it and would recommend it. The 2nd oneshot the main characters were definately weird. The main girl was talking about going on one of those blind group dates the teenagers in middle and high school do but she was nearly 30 and seemed to be in love with a idol... the guy she met was a fortune teller. It was a really weird story. It felt like their ages were a lie because their actions and hormones were for sure at a middle to high school level. Over all though the 2 oneshots were a fun read. I would especially recommend the first one.

This was a good harlequin. I've read many of them and I'd say this harlequin is about average in comparison to all the ones I have read. If you like harlequins though this one is good.

The Breaker: New Waves

Complete | JEON Geuk-jin,PARK Jin-Hwan | 2010 released

The original was 100 times better. However, if you come to this manga expecting nothing at all perhaps you could enjoy it. I was not one of those people though and although it was sopposed to have 3 parts it is left hanging at the end. So... I don't particularly like this one and wouldn't really suggest it either. I do however suggest people read the original part, The Breaker by itself.

I liked all the oneshots in this they were all good romance stories, the one I liked least out of all of them was probably the one about the meat salesman and the yakuza boss daughter. However all the other ones were really good and I enjoyed them. Especially the first and last ones.

This was a really cute oneshot. Im glad I tried it out.

Diamond Life

Complete | Fujiwara Akira | 2007 released

This manga really has to be my favorite straight romance manga. It deals with a lot of heavy issues such as HIV and Poverty but manages to write a seriously awe inspiring story around these themes and still at times comes off lighthearted. I don't think there is a single person I would not suggest to read this Manga. I tend to be someone who always has at least some small issue with a manga even if it is one that I love. I tend to be especially hard on women leads simply because I have room to talk as a woman myself. However, this manga is one of the few exceptions to the rule. I have nothing bad to say about the manga or it's characters... The father of the main woman was a piece of work but that in it of itself was a great side part of the story and I wouldn't wish it changed either. All in all this manga is a must read. I have read it many times and will read it in the future again as well.

My favorite out of the oneshots here is the one about the escort and the police inspector... that one was really great. I usually don't like funny ones that much but this is a exception. All of them are good for the most part. the one I like the least is the first one actually. But it is well worth the read.

There was one story in this batch of oneshots that I was really not big on at all but the majority of them were pretty good. Id read it again sometime.

Midnight Secretary

Complete | OHMI Tomu | 2006 released

This is one of my favorite Josei romances. It's been a while since I have read it... however, I have read it numerous times. I liked it more when I was a bit younger but... I still like it a lot now. I think its a good read for anyone looking for a good romance with smut.
