So, Honey and Clover won our first event of the month read. Yay! For now let's keep the focus on books 1-5. We have to let people (like me) read it first. haha! Later in the month (or maybe February) we can open it up to later books. Anyway, happy reading!

Takemoto lives in a run-down student apartment, where his greatest worry is when he'll next be able to afford to eat meat and whether he'll get to class on time. Along with his crazy cast of friends, Takemoto sets out to discover life and his true self. Set in a Tokyo art college, Honey and Clover blends comedy and pathos to bring to life a very unique set of individuals.


Love is never easy for our heroes. Takemoto is forced to confront his resentment of his stepfather and his own feelings of being cast adrift, while Mayama and Ayu flounder in their unrequited loves and Morita faces the prospect of being held back another year.


~goodreads.com summary

like what we do with the other books. character developement, plot, highlights, favorite scenes, etc. i haven't read it yet. so right now i don't have much to add

i started the series. it does seem kind of cute. i don't think i'll be able to get around to reading much more by the end of the month. but i can see why you like it!

hmm, i still consider manga like sailor moon or fushigi yugi to be "classic." they add that magical adventure twist the whole love thing

well, i don't think old equates classic. though, it is easily confused when things get really old, like music.

lol. like the scarlet letter, or more like pride and prejudice.

i haven't either of those. but i have read brave new world. disliked that one too. lol

ooooo. my bride of the water god is finally being sent to me. can't wait!

it's about a girl who is sacrificed to the water god to end the village's drought. but instead of drowning, he saves her to be his wife. it's really good. there are tons of secrets that go on in the series, and it's really interesting trying to figure everyone out

well, it's manhwa. so if korean comics are exotic, yes. but there's also tons of korean poems in there. i think that makes it seem exotic. plus, it adds to the mystique and beauty, and soforth. ah, lovely. but, it is confusing for the first book or two. but you either get the hang of how it is written, or it becomes better written as the volumes progress. i think it's really good.

i haven't read that one. i've read kill me, kiss me, angel diary, magical jxr, cynical orange... my manhwa selection isn't too vast. that's basically it. i'm sure there are some others, but i can't think of them at the moment. anyway, i do see chocolat pop up a ton. i think it's a pretty popular one.

it gets better as you read on. it's a shame that you can't find it online.

bride of the water god. they took it down due to publisher requests the last time i checked.

very true. in all honesty, liscened stuff is suppose to be taken down.

i hate when that happens to me. and i end up thinking "this shouldn't be this hard to find!"

i know!! it's even better when they put "see you in volume x" or "to be continued" on incomplete series

exactly!! it's just too mean!

no, i never completed the first volume. sadness.

i believe i gave it a fair shake. it's not like i looked at the cover, thought it looked boring and thus decided i didn't like it. i tried to read it at least three times. i was never that interested in it, can't be interested in them all

haha
