A huge thank you to Tokyopop and Netgalley for the ARC.
Goodness, I really loved this story! Setting in particular had me hooked right from the start. While I'm familiar with a variety of hybrid tropes, the concept of an herbivore/carnivore delineation is something I've never seen before and it provided for a really adorable dynamic between Yagi and Ookami. And I've never read anything with a goat hybrid before! Such a unique, but inspired choice haha. The idea of a goat fighting "the seduction of paper" to be a bookseller... What an innocent and inherently hilarious premise.
I'm glad that the entire volume focused on them and their relationship. The background regarding their past was so sweet, and Ookami's transition from passive friend to loving partner felt really genuine; as a result, I also didn't really mind the smut sections. Sometimes, in cozy mangas like this, they feel out of place and a bit much for me, but because I felt connected to their love for each other, not just attraction, it felt warranted here. I also enjoyed all of the side characters and the momentum/energy they brought to the story. I love a good "found family"!
Overall, I highly recommend 💚

Thank you Netgalley for the eARC! I don’t know why I always go into these types of books expecting some cute, fluffy content and then getting surprised when there’s full-on sex scenes 🙈 I honestly just saw goat and books and had to request this. I didn’t realize this was a BL manga and thought it would be a fun, innocent read about a goat working in a bookstore. You get that, but you also get so much more 😂 I thought the backstory between Yagi and Ookami was so cute and I thought it was so sweet about how Yagi got the job at the bookstore. All that hair petting at the end though, omg that killed me. Head petting is one of my weaknesses and I just couldn’t handle how CUTE they were!

Thank you so much NetGalley for an advanced readers copy of this book.
Oh my GOD! Where do I start? In a few words this is the story of a human-goat who wants to work at a bookshop, even though he is a goat and likes to eat paper, Yagi tries his best as a human-goat to do his job and not be afraid of his human-wolf boss.
Its queer, its cute and I highly recommend it. I was almost dying every page. It was too adorable and Yagi was the cutest. I loved the way their relationship was developed.
I loved this book so much I recommended it to my sister while on FaceTime with her last nigh.
5 star read for me.
