Read All The Books

Not Your Idol follows a pop idol who gives up on being a girl after she is assaulted at a fan meet. She changes her name and starts to dress like a boy stating, it would not have happened if I was a boy.  At her high school, a fellow student recognises her and decides to keep her secret and she soon starts to question whether or not all boys are the same. This volume was so good, however it ends on a cliff hanger and I honestly need volume 2 to see where the story goes. I have so many questions and theories and at this point I am suspicious of everyone as this is being promoted as a psychological suspense. It did take a little while to get into the story but then it was over way too quickly and I just needed to know what happens next! The artwork is amazing and I'm excited to see the finished copy. I hope volume 2 comes out not too long after volume was is officially released. Thank you to NetGalley and VIZ Media for providing an e-arc in exchange for an honest revie...

This was such a fun and quick read! It follows Yuna and Akari, two girls that are complete opposites who meet in an unexpected way and soon become best friends. Yuna is a shy quiet girl while Akari is outgoing and not afraid to speak her mind. While they seem to have nothing in common they soon start to realise that maybe they aren't so different after all.  The graphics in this are really beautiful and I hope that it is published in colour as in some cases I couldn't tell which girl was which particularly when it was a close up of Akari's face as you couldn't see the dark ends of her hair. I think this is a great manga for teens as it explores the topics of friendship and crushes/first loves and that our impressions of people aren't always what they seem and you should get all your facts before jumping to conclusions.
