Boys' Love

The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window, Vols. 1-3

December 25, 2016 by Michelle Smith Leave a Comment

By Tomoko Yamashita | Published digitally by SuBLime Until Olivia mentioned it over in the comments on Manga Bookshelf, I had no idea this series existed, let alone that it was being released in English! Having loved Yamashita's Dining Bar Akira and Black-Winged Love, I immediately purchased all extant volumes. Kosuke Mikado has been able to see spirits since he was a … [Read more...] about The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window, Vols. 1-3

This time travel historical romance is actually a lot more rational than one would expect. Unfortunately, the romance is the least successful element of the story. You can find my review for BL Bookrack here. Review copies provided by the publisher. … [Read more...] about Right Here, Right Now! 1-2 by Souya Himawari

Crimson Snow by Hori Tomoki

April 20, 2011 by Michelle Smith Leave a Comment

I reviewed Crimson Snow, a BL short story collection from BLU Manga, for this month's BL Bookrack column. Despite the yakuza connection, the three-part title story is quiet and compelling and well worth the price of admission all on its own. You can find that review here. … [Read more...] about Crimson Snow by Hori Tomoki
