There Are Things I Can't Tell You

I saw this manga on Netgalley and immediately requested it.
The cover art looked beautiful and the title definitely sounded intriguing.

I really loved the fact that this manga takes you on such a journey with so much emotional twists and turns as you figure out how the characters (Kasumi and Kyousuke) grew up, what issues they are dealing with and how you also get to see both sides of the story, how they view each other and, even though the manga is surprisingly short also shows how to they grow towards each other and the complications of falling in love with one another when life and all of their struggles get in the way.

Oh and the MUTUAL PINING, it was so good! I loved the fact that they were both already adults as well, since a lot of the LGBT+ mangas that I've read are about high schoolers, so this was quite refreshing. I also loved the fact that we got to see Kyousuke at work, I mean I loved to read about his designs. There were also a lot of mental health struggles that I could relate to.

One thing that I do have to point out is that sometimes the shift between flashback and present was a bit blurry. So I sometimes had to go back and reread, because it wasn't always clear to see where on the timeline I was.
However it didn't bother me enough to put the book down

Overall it's a cute and angsty LGBT+ manga with heavy themes about childhood friends turning into lovers all the while learning to love and letting themselves be loved.
