I didn't really read much this week. I guess I read some more of that manga series Fruits Basket by: Naksuki Takaya. I don't really have anything new to report on that.

In the storyline, one of the classes has to perform the play Cinderella for their cultural festival, but when they decide the cast, it turns out all wrong (for example, the super nice girl has to play the evil stepsister and the girl who wears only black is cast as Cinderella), so the class rewrites the play to suit who's casted as the characters. They call it "Sorta Cinderella." It was cute.

I'm really liking the series. It's strange how well you get to know the characters and how deeply you empathize with them and their problems. It's sort of like a little mini-vacation. I also like how Takaya portrays this one guy out to be a complete jerk (He's the guy on the cover). Then, he introduces himself as God. It was kind of cynical. I liked it.

Hatsuharu ^ is one of my favorite characters because he's really sweet and funny and misunderstood. He reminds me of one of my friends a lot.

I guess that's all for this week. Sorry for not reading more.
