Kiss Your Hair and Isle of Forbidden Love by Duo Brand




I'm reviewing two by Duo Brand. Kiss Your Hair is a series of shorts and so that's why I gave it a three roses. I rarely will give more than a three rose rating to short stories because I always want more. There just isn't enough depth of character when the artist/writer has only a few pages in which to create her story.

Now, if you're a Duo Brand fan girl or boy, you won't be disappointed. One thing I must say, the shorts are not the usual fare, and so that is satisfying. The guys are slim and have legs that go on forever, lots of long hair (which I love), and sexy.

If you like shorts, you'll like this book. It's entertaining for a quick read, and the chibis at the end of each story are really, really, really cute! A nice addition. Plus there's a short written story, too.

Isle of Forbidden Love gets a four star from me. An interesting story line - and if you like fantasy you'll enjoy this book. The setting is ancient Edo, Japan. A series of mysterious murders are taking place in Edo, and an eager peace keeper Aki is determined to solve the crime. He meets up with an older man, Kuga, who is also trying to find out what is going on, or is he the murderer? The story only gets weirder but I don't want to give too much away! Let's just say that Edo is a mysterious isle that is shrouded from present day reality.

As always, Duo Brand creates nice artwork and entertaining and sexy boys.

I ordered Isle of Forbidden Love from RightStuf a couple of weeks ago. I can't wait to read it.

Thanks for the review.
