Goodreads Synopsis:
Urushiba Rinka was a
fairly normal high school girl, though she was a bit poor and her only
family was her father. Then one day, she saw a penguin and some glowing
fish swimming through the sky. Rinka might have thought it was a
hallucination if there hadn't been another witness with her, a boy from
her school with a strangely scratched-up face.
Contact with a fish caused her to pass out, and when she awoke, she had developed the power to move through inanimate objects... such as the floor of her apartment! Later, a call from her father showed her that she was not the only one the flying fish bestowed with hard-to-control superpowers! What exactly is going on here? And does Rinka's classmate know more about this situation than he's letting on?

Why?:
This just caught my interest mostly. The
artwork looks really pretty, and the synopsis sounds interesting. I generally
like books featuring psychic elements like this, and I’m intrigued by the whole
idea. Plus, I found it for a good price, and I’m looking forward to trying this
first volume.
Special
Mention:
Carry On
by Rainbow Rowell
As I still haven’t read Fangirl yet, I don’t think I’m excited
enough for this as I will be when I read that one. But still, I’m intrigued,
and I know a lot of people are excited for this one.
