Adachi and Shimamura (Light Novel) Vol. 1

By: Hitoma Iruma

Narrated by: Analise Scarpaci

What A Girl Wants

Adachi is skipping class when she first meets fellow truant Shimamura in the gym loft, and just like that, a friendship is born. Except now Adachi's having dreams about kissing her, and she doesn't know what that means, but she's pretty sure it's not something you do with a friend.

What are these strange feelings she has when she thinks of Shimamura? And is it possible Shimamura feels the same way?

Adorable!

So cute! This is a cozy teen story of two girls becoming friends and maybe something more. It’s so cute how they fumble around each other. I love it!

Really really good and relatable and cute

Yearning, feeling awkward but trying to push through and better know that person you like ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Yuri at its finest!

This story is probably my favorite romance story I've ever read. The book is a slow burn, but it's a good burn that warms the soul. I love seeing Adachi and Shimamura's relationship slowly grow into a bond that transcends time itself. Hitoma Iruma knows how to write characters that love to sit around and do nothing and make them into compelling people with depth and agency.
Analise Scarpaci has done a wonderful job at bringing this first volume to life. Whether you are going into this series brand new or wanting to experience the first volume again, I give my highest recommendation to this audiobook! I await the next volume with great anticipation.

The story I love most.

Adachi and Shimamura is one of my favorite Light Novels, I own all of them and seeing them getting a audio version is incredible. The performance was honestly pretty good too, definitely surprised me.

Cute and Very Japanese

Why do I say it's very Japanese? Well, there is a girl with glowing blue hair, eyes, and eyebrows that says she is a space alien from the future, and everyone just sort of rolls with it. As for the main plot, it captures well the awkwardness of young love. Very cute.
