We had a place for this. Here are some of my impressions. • I thought it was a story that would warmly relate to women • There was something about every character that applied to me • I’ve always liked mysteries like guessing the culprit, but this is the first time I’ve realized that I also like light novels like this • There is a chapter written from a male perspective, how can you write it so well • I was able to learn new values that I didn’t know before • I would like to know if it is based on Mr. Shirao’s experience • I don’t like living in a shared house, but I would like to live here
