Kare First Love (Kare First Love)

Rating:
Summary: A MUST read manga for all girls!!!
Review: "Kare First Love" is the kind of manga I wished I had read when I was in Junior High/ High school! This manga has a great story & characters that just about anyone can relate to!

Anyone who has ever been shy, socially awkward, or dealt with peer pressure ( growing pains) & been in LOVE =)... will be able to relate to this book.

Karin is that awkward, geeky girl who is socially awkward, a passive, people pleaser who lets herself get bullied by her popular classmate to share her home work. On her way to school at the subway, Karin met a boy named Kiriya. Kiriya seems to be fascinated by Karin & Karin can't stand him since she isn't use to getting that much attention.

Geeky Karin gets pressured by her classmate again to go on a group date where she meets Kiriya & Karin was humiliated by her classmate in front of everybody. As if things weren't bad enough her classmate wants Kiriya badly & Karin got drunk accidentally (making a very bad impression)!!!

What will poor Karin do? will she let her classmate snag Kiriya a way? or will she ever be brave enough to get close to Kiriya? Will Karin ever see herself the way Kiriya sees her?

Kare's First love is probably my favorite shoujo manga at the moment. It's a story about coming of age, self discovery, dealing with that awkward stage in your life & that unforgettable first love!!!

Such a great manga that is a MUST read!! One of the best current shojo!! Viz has done a great job licensing all these shojo titles!

Summary: This is one of the best shojo mangas out there!
Review: When I first started reading shojo, all of my friends told me I had to read this book; that this manga was one of the best out there. And it really is! The story is about a dorky, awkward girl who developes a crush on a guy she thinks is way out of her league; and when the guy starts paying attention to her, she can't figure out what to do. Its a really sweet story that I'm sure you're gonna love.
