My thoughts
In reading the first volume of A Perfect Day for Love Letters I was disappointed. It was not completely terrible, but it still wasn’t a manga to get your hopes up for (your $10.95 is better spent on one of Del Rey’s other series). That being said, let’s plunge into volume 2 and see what happens! One thing you will notice in this manga is there is less emphasis on love letters and some of the stories are just simple confessions of love through discreet ways (like taking swim lessons). The stories are all also longer and have better plots.
