Boy Meets Maria
(Manga)
add
This story is so beautiful it had me in tears. The author depicted childhood trauma, gender, and sexuality the best way I've seen in a manga so far. The story and characters don't fetishize gay relationships or trans/questioning. I read the book start to finish, it's captivating and sucks you right into the characters. It showed genuine character growth in only 6-6.5 chapters, and it wasn't forced. The art is beautiful and the story/characters are easy to understand but still complex. This story will have you cringing, sobbing, laughing, and squealing. I definitely recommend this book 10/10, it is my new favorite.
