I don't usually write reviews for manga but this one caught my attention.
Since there are less spoilers, it's not going to be that long.

Story: 7/10
Classic romance, meeting at first and ending together at last. Some people might take it boring but I personally enjoy romance stories of similar plot.
They even took some time to include Latin names of flowers which aren't that popular, so the details for the plot is quite exceptional.
Besides, it's a happy ending, so definitely a plus.

Art: 10/10
Really love the details of the character, especially the faces. I think there's not much manga that dedicates the character's appearance, so it's really great.
...
Character: 9/10
Just gotta love how the male MC started opening up to the girl that he met, and they ended up developing same feeling towards each other. For a 25 chapter-manga the character's development is quite astonishing.

Enjoyment: 8/10
I like romance manga, and although it has almost the same plot as the others, this one somehow managed to leave an impression to me. I might re-read it one day!

Overall: 9/10
Definitely worth reading. Less chapters makes the story more interesting to follow.

Shortly said, this is a pretty regular story(line). It's not much different compared to many other series, but it has this exciting aura which keeps the reader interested.

Story: The main girl character is the clumsy type who doesn't know what club to join since she tends to get easily bored of new activities. Once this one guy starts giving her advises, gets the story more progress done. It must be said that it takes some time till the story finally finds the way it wants to be headed, but the journey is written in a way that reader finds it interesting to get to know ... what is going to happen next.

Art: The art is absolutely beautiful!! All characters are easily personalized from each other yet they still seem to fit together!

Character: As for the characters, they seem to be quite normal types but their own personalities are brought up in a different way making them seem more interesting. And starting from the beginning you can point out the way the characters start to develop into something different yet remain themselves.

Enjoyment: Even though there's not much happening in all of those chapters, they are built in a way that manages to keep up the cute high school life mood and the moments, conflicts between characters etc. do not seem to be out of the place, but rather fit perfectly. This manga just has something that keeps reader excited, feeling as if you were a high schooler without clear path once again.
