A parent might reach for this book when their teenager is quietly navigating the complexities of their first crush or questioning the boundaries between deep friendship and romantic attraction. It is an ideal choice for teens who feel like outsiders or those who find comfort in the 'slow burn' of a relationship built on shared interests and mutual respect rather than immediate drama. The story centers on Miyano, a high schooler who loves reading boys-love manga but is hesitant to see himself in those stories, and Sasaki, an older student who takes a genuine interest in Miyano's world. Through their exchange of books and thoughtful conversations, the narrative explores identity, the importance of consent, and the courage it takes to be vulnerable. Parents will appreciate the story's gentle, healthy approach to male emotional intimacy and self-discovery within a safe and supportive school environment.
