Goodreads Synopsis:
In
search of independence and solitude, the sharp-tongued Ririchiyo
Shirakiin moves to the Maison de Ayakashi, an apartment building with
its own Secret Service. Ririchiyo is eager to be alone, but upon her
arrival, she is greeted by Soushi, an SS agent who seems...familiar
somehow. Familiar and yet...not quite the same. Troubled by recurring
dreams of a different Soushi-a man who loved her...and suffered for
her-Ririchiyo chooses to accept her new circumstances and embrace the
Soushi who now stands at her side...
Review:
This is not a book
to read in public. I’m either grinning or wanting to cry, I’m not even kidding.
God, the way this series is breaking my heart is just horrible.
Also, why wasn’t
any of this is in the anime?! Seriously.
So after the last
volume left us with a horrifying conclusion, we’re sent back to the beginning
of the series. And everything is just a little bit off. And Ririchiyo doesn’t
know why, and no one will tell her.
Miketsukami is
scaring me a little, but mostly just upsetting me hugely. We don’t know what he
knows, but he’s giving these weird looks when Ririchiyo isn’t around. He's still very sweet with Ririchiyo and I love him, but he's upsetting me. Not to
mention that Watanuki and Roromiya are practically nonexistent in this volume. On the other hand, there is a new character and more of Kagerou, although it's debatable whether that is good or not.
Don’t get me wrong,
I am still in love with this series. And I am hugely impressed by this twist
that Fujiwara threw in, because I’ve never seen it happen before, and I never
would have guessed this in a million years. But I’m also very upset about it,
and it is breaking my heart.
And I am still on
my toes waiting for the next volume.
