My copy had only just arrived few days ago. Damn, I guess I'm really late about this

I have just read "Book Girl and the Captive Fool" and even though it wasn´t as good as the second book, which is so far the best of the series imo, it was worth the read.

Yes, the second book is far more epic and that last scene in volume 2 was just sooooo ;___; I don't think words cannot describe my feelings when I read the ending scene of volume 2.

As for captive fool...the letter on the ending was a bit surprising for me because

Spoiler:

I never though Miu was the one sending those letters to Kazushi at the beginning of the volume

. It's only a bit surprising because I already know that she and Kazushi know each other after I watched the movie. Still..the plot twist about Sarashina comes from a bit of shock. I'm just glad that I didn't read any spoilers concerning the plot except for what happened to Miu.

As for Sarashina...well, I don't really like her very much. In a certain aspect, she could be similar with Nanase but more yandere than her.

Spoiler:

The part where she stabbed someone with a chisel and use Kazushi as her shield is expected but still annoying nonetheless. Also, should I mention about how she went into rage at the library? Personally, I think the author felt a bit of rushed. It's different from vol 2 where everything seems to flow naturally, the part where Sarashina snapped seems so sudden and the way she reveals everything in one swoop doesn't help.

Still not as good as vol 2, but it's still good.
