Oh, this volume. A mixture of action, drama, romance, and humor that had me loving this series all over again. I love Iku and Dojo, especially together, and this book had them in spades - whether on the job or working to make sure her parents don't realize she's a member of the high-risk Library Forces. The story arc about Instructor Komaki and Marie was both sweet and engaging and gives great hope to Iku/Dojo shippers like myself. All the one-shots were gret as usual; the bonus story about getting Tezuka to smile was, in a word, hilarious. Library Wars has quickly become one of my 'must read' series. ( )

This one focused a lot on representation in literature, as well as women ignoring the wishes of noble idiots and rescuing them anyway. It also continues the story line from the previous volume, concerning Iku's parents and her fear of their disapproval. The romance between Iku and Dojo continues to heat up, and I'm obviously all over that. ( )

What happens when the parents come to town ? How does she hide the fact that she's in defense ? Well she gets the whole gang to support her and cover her tracks. it's funny, a bit sad and very sweet at the same time. Another fun edition to the series ( )

This one wasn't as great as the first 4 books. The story seems to just keep dragging along without any new developments to keep me interested. I made it through book 5 but that's it for me. I would still recommend this series to Manga fans and I really enjoyed it. ( )
