Socrates In Love (Manga): Yami no Matsuei

i thought Socrates hated the idea of writing stuff down, damn plato

looooved this so much! i really felt the story's sadness and now that i've read the manga, i want to read the novel :']really a wonderful buy, i would recommend it to anyone

There was a lot of hype on this book, "based on the all-time best-selling novel in Japan!" Well maybe the novel is a lot better but based on that, I expected more. I felt that I couldn't feel for the characters- that there was a lack of connection. I think this book is supposed to be a deep and emotional story but overall, it just came off as boring. If you want a manga that can move you to tears and really makes you think, I would recommend "Deep Love" by Yoshi & Yuu Yoshii (however, presently not licensed).

J'ai beaucoup aimé le livre. C'est une histoire d'amour vraiment triste, mais jolie. L’histoire se rassemble à celle du livre original.

I first read this book when I was in Middle school in Carmel, IN, and would check the book out from the library almost whenever it was available! Then I moved to Florida and was nit able to find the book at any libraries near me. So when I saw that I could get it on Amazon, I was excited. I didn't even care that the book was used, I just wanted to be able to read the story again. It's amazing!!
