This started off decent. Not great but was going to go with 3 stars. But then the story just disappears. We get a different couple! And then another couple...and another. Each connects slightly to another. I was not a fan of any of the characters. Each seems a little (or lot) mentally unbalanced. And we get pedophilia and prostitution and more that just didn't sit great with me. I wanted romance! That is not romance. Art was mediocre.

Me he leído la historia principal y lo demás no, en general me aburría y la calmada historia no me decía nada (y las ilustraciones son feas U:U)

La historia principal trata de un chico al que su novia le ponía los cuernos y entonces se lia con un chico de su grupo para consolarse y así inician una relación sin etiquetas

This was a yaoi manga with multiple short stories for different couples. One couple was a younger boy and a man that was stealing, another was two employees that worked together, another was two friends that were seeing each other. I enjoyed reading it. I had read this years ago and decided to re-read it.

Colección de historias cortas que terminan en final feliz todas, lo cual me agrada bastante.

This one is more like a 2.5. Lots of smallers stories that range from good, okay and all the way to bad.

I picked this up at a used book store. It was enjoyable, I guess, but the art style was outdated and the stories were all short and sometimes hard to follow. I honestly don't even recall each one was about!

I was so tempted to leave it at 2 stars because the first story is really good, but...incest and pedophilia among so many many many other sins? Naw fam, come on.
