My book really starts to pick up speed at chapter 15. Please let me know what you think of my book! Thank you for reading! I thought my life was perfect. Sure, we never left our mountain or forest and my brothers were hard to keep in line, but my family had each other. Mother and father left every now and again to sell remedies and I kept my brothers in check… for the most part. Our quiet cozy life was relatively perfect. Then the war came knocking on our door and I found out my family was never what I thought it was. I was left alone to pick up the pieces and find a way to salvage what was left and I discovered my families power. It was left to me and I will use it to protect what is mine. I will also find my brother and protect them, even if it’s from themselves! My journey may be long and treacherous, but only I can travel this path now. I will not only bring back what I once had but also find more than I was looking for, gaining new love and loss along the way. —————————————————— The mother and father are not mentioned by name in the early story on purpose. The female lead, who is also the main character, is not focused on as much in the beginning to help build a foundation for what makes her her which is her family. The female lead and main character is also neurodivergent slightly. So if her actions or point of view seem a little different that is probably why. Chapter comments and paragraph comments are welcomed and encouraged! I’d love to hear what you think even if it’s not positive constructive criticism is more than welcomed. Also I recommend rereading some of the earlier chapters if you read this before May 30, 2025.

Mitsunari had it all: a voice that turned heads, a smile that lit up stadiums, and a spot in VIRE—the hottest idol group in the country.

In the blink of an eye, Mitsunari goes from beloved star to public enemy. The label cuts him loose. His group turns silent. The fans turn vicious. Now blacklisted and alone, Mitsunari is left to piece together what really happened—and whether he can survive without the spotlight. As lies pile up and bridges burn, he has to face who he is without the group, and whether he’s strong enough to fight for a comeback… or let it all go.

Volume 1 “Unspoken Summer”. Tells the story of love and self-discovery between Ellie and Bella, two women who must fight in a world that still largely opposes same-sex love. Set in the 2000s, when LGBTQ was still considered taboo and not fully accepted by society, they find comfort and courage in loving each other amidst the fear of rejection. In Volume 1, we will witness how they grow, face their fears, and struggle to find their place in the world, despite what others may think of them. It’s a story about finding strength within oneself and each other, even as the outside world remains full of prejudice. Volume 2 and Volume 3 will introduce new characters and new stories, but will remain focused on the theme of love between women, taking readers deeper into a world that hasn’t been widely explored, with the hope of providing broader representation for the LGBTQ community, particularly for women who love women. Hope u can enjoy my story :)
