I really like this mangaka's artwork. It might not seem appropriate to comment about her art before anything else, but it's true anyway, I just like the style so much I can't help making a remark about it. Absolutely spot on in my opinion. The stories here are alright I suppose, and I like them to a certain degree, though I can't declare they're absolutely gorgeous like the art. I get the idea the mangaka was trying to get across and her attempt at being poetic, however I do have to point out that there're amateur traits I could detect from the manga, which is frankly inevitable for a rookie artist. Nonetheless for the first attempt of a mangaka this is not too bad at all.

I particularly liked the side stories, especially the last one. They are short and to the point and leave you with a nice heart-warming feeling. Plus the metaphors used were very sweet.

The main story was okay, just too long, the chapter with the younger siblings was simply unnecessary.
It felt like a short story dragged out beyond its potential. That kinda spoiled the fleeting cuteness it had in the beginning but it's still a good read.
