I'm surprised that more people haven't read this series. I read it several years ago after receiving the two books as a present, and I can assure you: it was the best series I've ever read, considering how short it was. The characters and panels were beautifully created and portrayed throughout the novels, and though they were over-emotive at times, I love every minute of it. Sure, this type of manga isn't right for everyone, but I definitely wasn't expecting it to be as good as it was.
