In the climactic finale to this touching high school romance, Erica must make the decision of her life - wait around for a love that may never come, or learn how to become her own woman and follow her own dreams.
Just A Girl Book 2 had some nice character development and cute art, but I was kind of disappointed in the ending. I guess it's supposed to be left up to the reader to decide if the main pair stay together or not, but I would have liked a little more of a solid finish.
That being said, I think this volume was nice and I love the add on story Valentine For Dad. Very cute and so realistic of a teenage girl's relationship with her pops. I'm happy to have this book on my shelf and it will surely be a re-read one day. If you like Tomoko Taniguchi or cute teenage stories in general, do yourself a solid and pick this one up.
Eh. Kind of a disappointing ending, considering the main pairing. Everything seems a bit rushed, and the main love interest turns out to be a manipulative jerk (the chapter with her beloved toy, HOW DARE YOU YOU JERKFACE). I wish it had been a surprise yuri ending, geez, it would have been ten times better. Having said that, there was a lot of good character development for the heroine and the series itself was infused with a lot of sweetness and humor and family bonding. Would recommend to any Tomoko Taniguchi fan. I only wish I could find more of her work in English - that wasn't OOP!
