I ❤ Yaoi: Hana no Mizo Shiru by Takarai Rihito

Good morning, yaoi lovers! This week's manga is Hana no Mizo Shiru by Takarai Rihito.

Arikawa Youichi's life at university is going just fine. He isn't having any trouble with his classes, he has plenty of friends, and even a cute girlfriend named Kanami. Then one day he meets Misaki. Misaki Shouta is a reserved, stand-offish fellow but for some reason Youichi can't seem to get him out of his mind. In fact, he can't seem to stay away. When he lands a job working in a lab with Misaki, it seems more than just the flowers are about to bloom. But will they recognize their emotions for what they are, and have the courage to accept it?

I'm about halfway through this manga and it is actually quite sweet. Misaki constantly rebuffing Arikawa's friendship and advances is a little frustrating at times, but I know his actions are due to something traumatizing that happened in his past. I look forward to reading more about this adorable couple!

3.5 stars
