Summary: from good reads
When Hana falls in love
with a young interloper she encounters in her college class, the last
thing she expects to learn is that he is part wolf. Instead of rejecting
her lover upon learning his secret, she accepts him with open arms.
Soon, the couple is expecting their first child, and a cozy picture of
family life unfolds. But after what seems like a mere moment of bliss to
Hana, the father of her children is tragically taken from her. Life as a
single mother is hard in any situation, but when your children walk a
fine line between man and beast, the rules of parenting all but go out
the window. With no one to turn to, how will Hana survive?
Feelings:
This was a sweet manga. I enjoyed reading it. I haven't watched the anime it was adapted from but I plan on watching it. I like how the artist drew the characters to look more Asian than many mangas. Hana is a young student and she ends up falling in love with a man who can change into a wolf and having children with him. The daughter Yuki is telling the story so the beginning seemed a bit of a summary. However, the bulk of the story is about the choice the children have to make about what world they want to live in.
It was a quick read and I would recommend it.
