Hi, so a friend read a manga and asked me to help find it but I can't seem to find anything about it anywhere, it's been a long time so she barely has any information on it as well

Here's what she told me about it:

Shoujo
Main girl fell in love with author of a book she read as a child

(She's not 100% sure if this part is from the right manga) Main girl does not end up with author of book

I know it's not a lot, so I won't be too stressed if it isn't found figured I'd just try my luck xD

Oh I just remembered the plot of Shayō (The Setting Sun) by Osamu Dazai, reminded me of what she said, not sure that'd help but eh xD

Hana no Namae?

Nope, I thought it might be when I saw it xD, but she said the female main character didn't remember the face of the author.

The friend is gonna read that manga tho xD
