Epilogue! I love these! They are always fun to read as it ties up everything + give us a glimpse in Nozome/Nieno's feelings/past/secrets.

I need the next book!

Truthful Diary: 3.5 stars. This started out pretty nice and I could understand Asumi, I liked that she found that diary and was able to make things come true. However, when things didn't match with her crush it just started to go down for me. That diary is for you. Not to change HIS future without consent. Eww. The ending though, that one was good, never write about the past, oh no. Also now I want to bake!

Fatigue Catching Net: 3.5 stars. While I loved the story as it is and boy I want a Fatigue Catching Net of my own because dang it sounds like an awesome product and our MC was pretty nice (though seriously she needs a rest and away from the toxicity of her life), the story just fell short near the end, I had expected more pages, instead it just ends. Very weird.

Voice changer Dials: 3 stars, mostly because I found the MC very unlikeable. I get that she had a dream, I get that she wanted to reach it, but I just didn't like how she hated on her voice and how she didn't just specialise in it. So everything that happened felt for me like karma. Plus, it was just a tad boring. I had expected more with those dials.

Body-clock pills: 4.5 stars. Ohhh imagine that you can have a special clock in your body? I loved this one it was such an interesting concept though of course as soon as the batteries were involved I knew what would happen and I was eagerly looking forward to seeing how this one would spiral into a bad ending. The MC was a great one though.

Vending machine story: 4.5 stars. Oh, this was a good start! What if you could dream up vending machines and they would provide whatever you need. Thirsty? Machine! Present for girlfriend? Machine! Bored? Machine got you covered. I loved that at first he was hesitant but then loved the convenience and I was just like, bra, no, don't do it. And I got invested in seeing how it would end. This was fun! Good product.
