Living-Room Matsunaga-san #4

The soft, intimate cover of this fourth volume says everything about the tender dynamic at the heart of Keiko Iwashita's series — a young blonde woman gazes down warmly at a bespectacled man resting just below her, their closeness rendered in Iwashita's delicate, luminous linework. That quiet emotional charge between the two figures makes it easy to see why this romantic slice-of-life has found such a devoted readership. Volume 4 is a lovely addition to the series for anyone already charmed by its understated warmth.
