Goodreads Synopsis:
Sometimes you find what you yearn for…
When
her dad gets a job overseas, Konatsu Amano has to leave the Tokyo life
she’s always known and relocate to a small seaside town to stay with her
aunt. The move also means starting a new school surrounded by complete
strangers, and it’s a lot to handle for a girl who has trouble with
change. But on her first day in her new town, Konatsu is instantly drawn
to Koyuki, an older girl who is the sole member of the Aquarium Club.
Konatsu’s introverted tendencies are hard for her to overcome, but maybe
she’s found something worth coming out of her shell for?
Koyuki
and Konatsu, each lonely in her own way, are the only two members of
the Nanahama High School Aquarium Club. As they spend time together,
they discover that they are increasingly drawn to each other. When they
go to the town summer festival together, Konatsu is finally able to ask
why Koyuki spoke to her that first day at the aquarium open house. But
Koyuki doesn’t have an easy answer, and her stumbling reply makes the
mood uncomfortable. Will this new awkwardness force a distance between
them?
Review:
In this volume, Konatsu realizes that her and Honami don't really know very much about each other, and so she tries to fix that. They're in the same club, and they've started growing closer, and yet she doesn't even know what class she's in. They make a misguided step toward understanding each other, but then when it's almost time for the festival, Konatsu works hard to take on more responsibilities for the club's show.
While there is some distance between the two girls, they both have good intentions and growing feelings for each other that they still don't fully understand. Plus they both have pretty good support systems with Konatsu's new friends and Honami's family. They're getting there, slowly.
This is still a really sweet yuri love story, and it just has a really nice, warm feel to it. I'm enjoying it quite a lot.
