I really like this volume because we remember that there are other boys in this series that are interacting with Tohru alongside Yuki and Kyo. Nabe "confesses" that he likes Tohru, just to see what Yuki would do, and mentions that there are others around her that probably like her. I love this side of the romance because it shows that anyone within the series could end up with Tohru. There are so many possibilities of whom she could possibly like and be liked back, that it's exciting. It also shows that once again Natsuki is thinking more broadly with her characters and making sure that they're all accounted for in the end. That even if they're a minor characters, they still have a voice that needs to be heard. This level of passion for your characters is amazing and profound honestly.

Another Sohma having to deal with depression and not being accepted by their parents. You would think that by the 14th volume I would be used to this angst, but I'm not. What I am used to though is the somewhat happy ending that each volume has, so that makes the angst and sadness worth it.

I hate the beginning of this volume because we get nothing but tragic backstory to Yuki, but at the same time, we see him in a new way and can understand why he's the way that he is.

We also get a glimpse of Kyo's feelings towards Tohru in this volume, but I think he's still trying to repress those feelings because he's afraid of hurting her. This is a logical reason, but there will always be a little pain when it comes to love. You can't be afraid of that Kyo! You can do it!!

I'm not crying, you're crying. I forgot how sad Kyoko's past was until reading this volume. It was interesting to learn that Kyo was privvy to such delicate information and learned all there was about Kyoko and how she had met Katsuya, Tohru's dad. I was straight up bawling because I could feel her pain and suffering when she thought she was alone in the world after Katsuya died and it made me wonder if I'll be like that if my husband were to leave me suddenly? I was also intrigued with how Kyoko reacted when she found out she was pregnant and I think there are a lot of women who have the same question when presented with the knowledge of being a new parent, but the way that Katsuya answered her made me realize that so long as you have a loving partner like him, then you'll be able to set aside those fears and uncertainties.

The story is very exhilarating and I'm curious how Kogami will solve this case. I am curious as to when it is exactly his Psycho Pass becomes cloudy.

I really enjoyed this book. It was set up in a way that even someone like myself who hates math and science was able to follow along. I loved how deGrasse Tyson walked you through the beginning of the universe and told you exactly what was going on when it came to how the cosmos worked. Made me want to read more books on astrophysics and learn more about the heavenly bodies above us.
