I'm definitely picky in rating Yaoi's I've read/watched, which is why in giving Haru wo Daite ita an overall 10/10 is an honor! It's a must read, although the sex can be graphic (which I understand some people enjoy that and others don't) the story for HWD is GREAT! I have to agree that as much as I love the story, the artwork in the beginning was something that was hard for me to look over (which is why that whenever I re read it I always read the beginning a bit hastily compared to the ending) but the improvement of the artwork from chapter1 all the way to the end is shocking!

If I were only able to recommend one yaoi to any of you, it would be Haru Wo Daite ita! it's enjoyable, the characters are great, overall the story deserves a 10, and I high recommend it.
