The book is engaging from the get-go. I loved the fast pacing and the flow. The artwork is great and nice to read. But I am giving it 3 stars just because of the predictability.
Overall, it's a decent manga. While this volume doesn’t have anything that sets it apart, there is potential, and I am slightly curious to see if the next volume offers something more.
Thank you, Netgalley, for the advanced review copy.

I loved the book. It was a great read. After the first three-quarters, I didn’t want it to end. I wanted to keep reading about the characters. This is my second Rooney after Normal People. While NP is all about feelings, there were many parts that felt unnecessary. Intermezzo is a big improvement in that regard. It felt more organized and better composed, while still maintaining that flowing prose. The only disappointing part was the ending. I expected at least one of the resolutions to be different from what we got.
If you have read any Rooney before and enjoyed it, you'll definitely enjoy this one.

I received this book as an advanced copy from NetGalley. It’s a standalone romance manga set during the Covid era, showing a relationship that blooms during the work from home phase. This is the first time I am reading a book set during Covid.
The story is told from the male protagonist’s perspective and captures his daily life and the gradual unfolding of the romance. The artwork is detailed, and their connection through shared experiences and interests is portrayed really well.
The main weaknesses are the lack of character development and the one sided storytelling . We don't get to know much about the romantic interest's life or her thoughts. I felt like this weakened the chemistry a lot. The story also speeds up near the end, slightly disrupting the flow it had from the start.
In conclusion, if you're looking for an easy but fun romance read, this manga is worth checking out.

This was a great read. I loved the interaction between the leads and how their relationship grew over time. There were some weird moments, but they didn't ruin the overall reading experience. I loved the arc and how the story progressed from start to finish. It felt like a good feel-good movie.
Overall, highly recommended by me. Thank you NetGalley for the advanced review copy.
