Description
Set in modern-day Tokyo, Sweet Cream and Red Strawberries is a series of vignettes, presented as episodes in the lives of four women. Touko and Chihiro are roommates in a one-bedroom apartment. Akiyo pines after her college friend while making a living as a prostitute. Suzuki lives alone and wanders through her daily estoutine wondering about love. Except for Touko and Chihiro, the characters in these stories don't intersect. Instead, their lives unravel independent from one another in isolated sections of the city. Themes like emotional strength reoccur throughout the book as the women suffer from jealousy, loneliness and unrequited love. Despite their close quarters, Touko and Chihiro keep their feelings to themselves, quietly coming undone behind their calm smiles. (Source: Publishers Weekly)

Solo Leveling
Superpower Counter attack
Over a decade ago, mysterious “gates” opened, connecting this world to another dimension. From that moment, some ordinary people awakened special powers and became known as “Hunters”, fighting monsters inside dungeons hidden beyond the gates. But not all Hunters are strong. My name is Sung Jin-Woo, an E-rank Hunter—the weakest of them all. Nicknamed “the weakest weapon of mankind,” I barely survive even in the lowest-level dungeons, struggling just to make a living. One day, while exploring a D-rank dungeon, I stumble upon a hidden Double Dungeon—a deadly trap with nightmarish difficulty. Facing certain death… something extraordinary happens. I awaken a mysterious power: A System that shows me quests, like a game interface. A secret only I can see— and only I can use to level up by completing quests and slaying monsters. Through this hidden system, I begin my transformation… from the weakest Hunter to the strongest of them all.
