Nana, Vol. 1

Put me in a reading slump

Nana is to Nana what my sister is to me.
I loved the artwork so much, it reminded me of “Dork Diaries”. This manga is truly what girlhood is. Best read while drinking French vanilla coffee and online shopping side by side.

Nana. What do you even say about a manga that everyone knows? Nana Osaki is cool. Her boyfriend is cool. The way he holds her neck before making love to her is sexy. Her clothes, presence and confidence are cool. Her vulnerability, too. Hachi is cute. I love the way she draws her eyes rectangular with shiny shine inside. And she was cute working at a vintage shop. And the apartment was cool. Didn't really like her boyfriend, from what I recall. I know the series is incomplete. I haven't read all the published volumes either. Maybe I stopped mid-way. Why? I don't know. 6/17/21
