Goodreads Synopsis:
IN CIRCLES Summer
vacation is in full swing! When Mitsuki and her friends go to the
amusement park together, she’s faced with plenty of romantic date spots
and superstitions. When she finally works up the courage to ask Towa to
ride the Ferris wheel with her, her plans are interrupted and she has to
think of another way…but just when Mitsuki’s about to throw in the
towel, Towa picks up the game right where she left off. Alone together
on the Ferris wheel, Towa’s confession of a secret past may be more than
Mitsuki is ready to hear.
Review:
This volume contains the end of their vacation trip, and then Mitsuki
finally goes on her “date” with Aya. Mitsuki is still trying to see Aya
as a boy, while Aya is trying to compete with Towa for her
affection, when Mitsuki is also still trying to get the courage to do
anything with Towa. It's a very conflicted triangle, especially when
Aya is the only one being upfront about his feelings.
There's some sweet tension between Mitsuki and Towa in this volume,
particularly as they're growing close enough to hug and whatnot. The
little touches between them is very cute and innocent, and I'm a big
fan.
It feels like they're trying to make basketball a big part of this
series, but I'm just not feeling it that much. They're using it to up
the competition, at least, and as something for the boys to focus on.
It is nice to see Mitsuki taking on some other responsibilities on
her own, though, as something for her to grow from.
This is a fun school shojo series, and I'm really having fun reading
it.
