"Japanese-American track-and-field star Mizuki is transferring to a high school in Japan...but not just any high school! To be close to her idol, high jumper Izumi Sano, she's going to an all-guys' high school...and disguising herself as a boy! But as fate would have it, they're more than classmates...they're roommates! Now, Mizuki must keep her secret in the classroom, the locker room, and her own bedroom. And her classmates, and the weird school nurse, must react to the new transfer student who looks like a very pretty boy..." ~ from Amazon.com.

Join Mizuki on her wild and twisted journey to get close to Izumi. But with him as her room mate, and all the other guys around, how will she be able to keep her gender a secret?

This book is great for romance and comedy lovers. It's a gender-bender that is filled with sticky situations and a lot of love.

I really enjoyed the characters and their development throughout the story. The artwork is also beautiful. Even though the story line isn't totally unique... the way the characters interact is!

I wanted to read more! Luckily, there's plenty of volumes to this series.

The book made me feel excited, happy, etc! All those good feelings wrapped up in one.

Hisaya Nakajo is an excellent writer and artist. Her work is absolutely stunning.

I recommend this book because of its beautiful artwork and excellent story. It's rich with all sorts of heart warming moments. You won't be able to put it down, and when it's done you'll be desperately searching for the next volume.
