In this third volume we add in a love triangle and fake dating element and I’m really enjoying how these familiar tropes are playing out
I can’t wait for volume four!

Every time I read another one of the books in this series I have to go back and skim the others because I can never remember what this series is about. Once I start reading it, it slowly comes back to me, but also in a confusing kind of way. There are so many details that I forget, and even at some points the main point of the first book. Which to be honest, I don't even know if that is a factor in the story anymore. There are a lot of similarities between the 2 main characters in this story and Kou & Futaba from Ao Haru Ride, but there are some differences too. There is even a scene drawn very similarly when they look into each others eyes - which I think is one of the more iconic scenes from Ao Haru Ride. It was like a cute homage to herself. I can remember that story better than this one and I read it years ago, I'm not sure why this story isn't sticking with me like some of her others. We still have some problems with friends and miscommunications - hopefully these start to become less of an issue as the story goes on.

Thank you to #NetGalley for an advance e-copy of #SakuraSakuVol3 by Io Sakisaka to read and review.

This volume was so much more interesting than the previous volumes. I'm excited to see where this love... mess goes, lol.

Thank you Netgalley and publisher for the ARC in exchange for the review!
