はぴまり~Happy Marriage!?~ (1) by Maki Enjōji

4.0

I loved this!

First it's a josei, so I didn't really want to read it, plus it's about marriage. Even if I'm old enough, I don't exactly want to read about marriage. But I read it anyway, because I was bored, and it sounded good. Turns out, I was pleasantly surprised!

This is not just josei, but also a little bit of shoujo as well, dealing with shoujo themes. It's also fun and enjoyable, and I love the scenes where she works out heaps, not for husband but to show off to the ex-boyfriend who'll be at her friends wedding. It's funny because her ex was no longer dating that girl, that girl was happily married and pregnant, and her ex tries to get into bed with her when...dan dan dannnn!!! Her husband shows up, sending everyone aflutter with his handsomeness. It's great!

I think both characters are great characters on their own. And through a heap of misunderstandings, and understandings, they find a way to deal with each other, and eventually truly fall in love. Very cute!
