Goodreads Synopsis:
SWAPPED WITH A KISS
Class troublemaker Ryu Yamada is already having a bad day when he
stumbles down a staircase along with star student Urara Shiraishi. When
he wakes up, he realizes they have switched bodies-and that Ryu has the
power to trade places with anyone just by kissing them! After figuring
out the workings behind this new and amazing ability, Ryu and Urara take
full advantage of the situation to improve their lives. But with such
an oddly amazing power, just how long will Ryu and Urara be able to keep
their secret under wraps? From the Trade Paperback edition.
Review:
I wasn’t really
sure what to expect from this. It sounded fun, intriguing. The artwork looked
pretty, and it definitely is.
While this is
probably an odd comparison, since I have read very little and seen very little
of the authors work, it reminds me of the style of Fairy Tail/Raven Master. The dramatic comedy and facial expressions, even the echi and
pervy moments, felt very similar to that authors work. So, I guess, a
recommendation, if you like one or the other?
This is about two
people who accidentally kiss and switch bodies. The girl is very studious and
quiet, and only cares about school, doesn’t even care about the kissing and
switching. Whereas the boy freaks out. But it works out, because the girl is
being bullied and he takes care of it, and he sucks at school so she takes care
of that.
I don’t think we’ve
really gotten into the witches part of the series, and I’m intrigued to see
where that goes. But I did enjoy the characters we’ve met so far, and I like
the two main characters. And it had a Fairy
Tail feel, which I liked.
This isn’t at the
top of my list, but I liked it enough to pick up the next one when I get the
chance. And I’m sure a lot of other people will really like it.
