@sm_wordsmith is one of my go-to #graphicnovel #manga experts and I LšVE her reviews which guide my purchasing for my #library apple.co/3uA7WQz
Review 998 is Turns Out my Online Friend is my Real-Life Boss! Guess what happens in this story... Despite the title giving away the reveal, there's still a lot to like about this silly BL office romance with some fun miscommunication & satisfying payoffs.
#GraphicLibrary #Manga
ALT Cover of Turns Out my Online Friend is my Rea-Life Boss! volume 1. Hashimoto and Shirase are standing back to back. Shirase is on the phone in a business suit while Hashimoto is in a white shirt with a tie holding his phone.
