Hitoma Iruma - Böcker

Summer fireworks and winter chills. Trips abroad and a peaceful home life. Somewhere in the background, an ukelele plays. This second short story collection features a variety of vignettes from the perspective of Adachi, Shimamura, and some of the many people whose lives have intertwined with theirs.

GOODBYE AUTUMN, WELCOME WINTER!Winter is in full swing, and Adachi and Shimamura are about to celebrate their second Christmas together–so what better time to pause and reflect on the journey that brought them this far? This holiday season, perhaps even the most painful memories of junior high are a gift to be treasured.

Adachi and Shimamura, two young women who attend the same high school, are inseparable friends. Whether playing table tennis, chatting about favourite TV shows, or just relaxing together, they’re happy to share their days. When Adachi’s friendship turns into romantic attraction, the relationship begins to change, one day at a time.

Saeki Sayaka has always been an old soul - serious and reserved, preferring to focus on her studies rather than make friends. Until, that is, a romantic confession from another girl in middle school turns her carefully ordered world upside down. Though none of her classes have prepared her for this, Saeki must now come to terms with her sexuality in this gentle, coming-of-age novel about grappling with first love, growing up, and relating to other people.

It's taken years for Saeki Sayaka to understand certain things about herself... including her sexuality. In this moving story that starts in her childhood, follow her through the ups and downs of falling in love with a girl.
