I bought it and read it twice. I really liked it but something was lacking. I really find it funny how the summary on the back of the book says something that never happens in the book.

Personally, I liked it. It wasn't just fanfiction; the author of the original herself worked on it. Don't judge it until you get it.
And actually, according to my friend, the translations were pretty accurate...

ShuJinKou I was a little disappointed too.... Didn't the back cover say that Yuki was missing and left a note?? I didn't see that anywhere gonk I was wondering the same thing when I got it. neutral
Personally, I HATED it. I dont even know how it could get published. The sentence structure was lame, nothing supported any other idea's. It was like a fan fiction by someone who thinks they were good. I mean come on, the things they said in that was just lame and stupid.

I saw it on the book shelf and looked at it and thought that it was utterly stupid that they wrote a novel when their was already a manga of it. I'd already assumed that it would suck so I put it down and never touched it again. My friend bought it, and said it was like a kid wrote it, and it spoon fed you, and it was a big let down.

iwanttobeasleep Has anyone read it yet? It's been out for a good few days now. I must say, I'm highly disappointed. I thought that since someone other than Maki Murakami had written it, it would lack certain elements I didn't like in the manga, namely, the insane things that happen. But I was wrong. On page 15, Shuichi climbs a lamp post and yells from the top of it, and shortly later K enters the scene from the ceiling insisting that's where all the Japanese spies are. The writing is also very stiff. It sounds kind of like a bare bones description of what you would see if it was a manga, and most of the dialogue comes off as really fake, obviously an attempt to explain what's going on. (Like when Hiro says, "Our debut single, the Power of Love, is at the top of the charts," no one would say that, obviously everyone in the room already knew what their debut single is). Thanks i'm going to have to try and find it now, maybe it'll be good. It sounds good, excepth for the writing style, atleast the humor is still there.

There's another novel coming out this month....on the lines of next week. I liked the first novel...I mean it's not like we're going to be getting the remixes (smut stories of all possible pairings of chars in the series together) that Murakami-sensei made herself to come to the states anytime soon if not ever. and most series start as novels before becoming manga....like only the ring finger knows....that's actually a 3 or 4 book series novel and okane ga nai (no money) was a novel before is became a manga.

For-Chan Cookie iwanttobeasleep I don't like the comparison to fanfiction, because under that logic, why read any book? You can find fanfiction that's better than the book, and is about whatever pairing you want. Hell, some "professional" work is fanfiction published. There's not a lot of difference between fanfiction and something that you can buy on a shelf. The main difference is that one is published and one isn't. The other big difference is that someone's getting paid to put a book out whereas fanfic authors are just in it for fun. Personally, I think claiming that fanfiction can't be on the level of a published work is more insulting than putting published works on the level of fanfiction. There's some damn good fanfiction out there and some super shitty professional work too. Agreed!

I liked the first novel, but the second was fairly short and disappointing for me. Though I liked it a bit.
Now I feel like re-reading them. :p

I bought it and read it and i didn't like it that much it said something about Yuki disappearing and him having a stalker but in reality it didn't have anything to do with that. So it was a disappointmetn to me.
