A wonderfully slow-paced manga, it kinda gives you that mellow, meandering feeling. Both the story and art styles are atypical, but I just love them! I actually read this because I liked the author's art from another series and was pleasantly surprised by the difference in story telling/pacing! It can be a little hard to read at first. Certainly it's not everyone's cup of tea, but if you're thinking "Maybe...." give it a chance and it may just seize your heart!! <3
Oh man, I love this series! I don't think I've ever loved a slice-of-life so much. I really agree with Purple Library Guy.
Can someone suggest me manga like this? It's a great change of pace for me, after reading really typical and cliche shoujo manga. This stands out from the rest in it's own way.

The butterflies in my stomach...
That was a very nice description Purple Library Guy. After reading it, it definitely feels like I can get into this type of manga will definitely check this out. :]
Oh wow, this had Iwamoto Nao all over it.

The atmosphere of this one is so similar to her other work, Machi de Uwasa no Tengu no Ko, it's not even funny -- and I mean this in the most positive way possible. Main characters that are childhood friends, countryside setting, a kind-of-yet-not-really-love-triangle -- it even has the same feeling of not being able to get into any other characters' heads save for the female MC and the male lead being the hardest to figure out (well, with Takiji you actually do understand him by the end of the series, as Purple Library Guy pointed out, even if he barely even talks), at least in the beginning. The more the reader gets to know about Takiji, the more you can't help but root for the guy. Although shy and unassertive, his presence to those close to him is that of someone reliable and reassuring.

Anyhow, if you read this and liked it, I also recommend Iwamoto-sensei's other series that I mentioned above: Machi de Uwasa no Tengu no Ko.
that's a long nice way to say it... ^^
Some people probably won't like this. It's not dramatically lovey-dovey. It could only be considered to resolve anything in the vaguest, most tacit kind of way. The male lead, Takiji, spends the whole flippin' manga barely saying a word. Not just not saying a word, but he doesn't even get any thought bubbles, and he rarely has much expression. So it seems like you shouldn't have much idea what's going on with him. The whole thing pushes the "nothing-happens slice-of-life" vibe hard.

But it gets to me. The characters are mostly kind of oblique and ambiguous about their feelings, but it just makes me try harder to get into their heads. That male lead, oddly, is maybe the most transparent character there once you get the hang of him--when he does talk, it's straightforward and from the heart. And the whole thing feels more optimistic than the actual dialogue and stuff really give you an excuse for;
