I have just read these yaoi (not all finished) : Restart, View Finder, Poet Wasn't Made in a Day, Double Face, Kishido Club, and Under Grand Hotel
sorry to say but none of the had a good story. some of them were actually dumb and sounded like a whole bunch of stupid make up excuses just to get a di*k up in someone's ass.
I'm really not surprised. Seems like the majority of yaoi is like this.

Under Grand Hotel was probably the strangest coz it was all sex in some underground prison
Restart finally has a dude with really short hair
*downloading more*
Whereas I preferred the longer-haired dude in Restart.

I have picked up Lady Snowblood and Drifting Classroom.
Drifting... is the manga on which the jdrama Long Love Letter is based on - but you can�Lt really compare the two. The manga is more a Lord of the flies story whereas the drama has more soapy moments.
I am really excited about Lady Snowblood, a classic from 1972.
Drifting Classroom...I've wondered about that. How is it, Esther?
Oh, my copy of Kurokawa's Yotsuba volume 7 has a lovely suprise under the dust jacket - kawaii, ne?

Wow. After being reminded of Yotsuba again in this thread (thanks, FarOutFreak!) I found volume 8 on Amazon France (as above) and ordered then - and just two days later, it has arrived! Two days from France is great.
Anyway, I've read the first chapter in this book, and it's just what fans of Yotsuba would expect - adorably kooky antics from Yotsuba. It's fab.

I couldn't get on with Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service at all. I sold my copy of volume 1.
It moved way to slowly for me.
Yes that's kind of true love the artwork though.
I am craving for a really good series a la Hikaru no go or 21 Century Boys. The weather is still bad so I feel like spending my evenings reading mangas.

There are new chapters for Historie again. This is one of those rare 10/10 manga for me, but the new chapters are taking a bit too long to set up the next phase of the story. Still, the first 4 volumes are terrific, definitely recommended.
