Review: かぐや様は告らせたい ～天才たちの恋愛頭脳戦～ 6

かぐや様は告らせたい ～天才たちの恋愛頭脳戦～ 6 かぐや様は告らせたい ～天才たちの恋愛頭脳戦～ 6 by Aka Akasaka
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I read this volume in very widely spaced spurts, so I really don’t have a good idea of the contents of this book as a whole. Nonetheless, I’ll try my best as I do with all my reviews.

This volume started out with another arc! It was about Kaguya freaking out about Miyuki Shirogane’s birthday, which was fun. This volume brought out more cute moments between the two extremely stubborn lovebirds, and they made me scream out loud just as much as they made Kaguya scream internally. I enjoy these moments a lot, and continue to look forward to seeing the progression of their relationship, slow as it is. Besides the arc, there were also the usual chapters with one-off storylines which were a blast to read as always.

This volume was even more unique in how it ended. This might be a bit of a spoiler, I don’t know. But it really surprised me and felt like it came right out of nowhere, and I’m still slightly confused. (view spoiler) It was all super dramatic and emotional. It felt like they were setting up for the end of the series, except if it was then it would have been extremely unsatisfying just because of how out of nowhere it seemed. If it had been paced properly, it could have actually been a really emotional and maybe even satisfying conclusion to the series. (view spoiler) So good thing it wasn’t the actual ending. It was still kinda weird how dramatic the author made it though, especially for something that’s literally not even gonna impact anything in the story. Like literally nothing is going to change from this. Whatever.

Good volume as always. I’ll just carry the five-star rating I gave to the last volume over to this one, since I really have no idea what to rate it.


Please consider giving this review a "Like" if you've made it this far, it helps me out a lot! And follow me if you want more!

Review: 寄宿学校のジュリエット（３）

寄宿学校のジュリエット（３） by 金田陽介 My rating: 5 of 5 stars Brb, crying. Not actually, though. Like, I didn’t shed any actual tears or even get close to it, it’s just that this series… is so good . The romance between Romeo and Juliet is still weirdly innocent, but the actual story is so engrossing and entertaining. It also seems like almost literally every single character is complex and interesting and multi-layered. (Only the background characters like Maru’s lackeys are undeveloped, but honestly they really don’t need any development anyway.) The relationships between characters keep getting more and more complex, and the situations that the characters have to deal with are also super juicy. This is such an addicting series. My initial problem with Romeo and Juliet’s relationship was that it seemed pretty unhealthy and one-sided to me. Later, I found it very weird how sexually immature they both are, and how un-intimate their relationship is. What is interest...

Review: Bitter Witness: Otto Dix and the Great War

Bitter Witness: Otto Dix and the Great War by Linda F. McGreevy My rating: 0 of 5 stars This is a very unique and interesting academic text. There are no other examinations of the German artist Otto Dix, his war experience, and his war-related art that are quite as in-depth as this one, while also covering a wide range of different aspects and angles of not only the artist's story, but also the Great War's. I used this as a source for a University research essay I wrote on the effects of Dix's war experience on the creation and effects of his painting Skat Players (1920). I was very late in starting my research so I unfortunately had to stick to only reading the information I could use for my own examination, rather than being able to devour this book in its entirety. However, the library requires this book be returned at the end of January of next year, so I have some time now to actually finish this book since the semester has finished...

Review: Spells & Sleeping Bags

Spells & Sleeping Bags by Sarah Mlynowski My rating: 3 of 5 stars This book was infuriating. Miri was super annoying during book 2, but she started this book off with some funny burns toward Rachel which made me think maybe she would be better in this book. Ha. No. She wasn’t. Miri. Oh Miri Miri Miri. So dumb. And it was annoying how it seemed like she didn’t even learn anything from the last book. She’s still all about saving the world and whatnot and being a dumbass. And she talked about poofing up money to help her help people, which is extremely illogical because she knows that poofing up money means she’s stealing money from somewhere else. Way to “help” out the world you fucking idiot. For the majority of this book I reckon she was under some kind of “emotion amplifying” spell but honestly that’s no excuse since she’s still her dumbass self. (view spoiler) [Her figuring out that Fake Rachel wasn’t real Rachel was nice and all but felt a bit...
