Review of 'Orange 1 (オレンジ, #1)' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
Too shoujo for me.
The protagonist is just too Japanese for my liking. She doesn't want to cause troubles for anyone, so she'd rather use the smaller size of shoes than ask for her size. She'd rather eat any bun that is left rather than take the one she likes and leave someone with the other less tasty buns. She'd rather stop speaking to her best friend than face the disapproving glances of his new girlfriend. In short, she's a doormat, and I'm not longer in the mood for self-obsessed doormats. Plus the story is too melodramatic.
