Book Hero thinking about your next read

Bunny girls do not live in libraries. This is simply common sense. And yet, that's exactly where Sakuta runs into one in the wild. Sakuta launches an investigation to figure out what's making this bunny girl invisible to everyone around them.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Guess who's back? After years without contact, Sakuta has received a letter from his first love, Shouko, asking to meet at Shichirigahama Beach. Of course, now that he's in a happy relationship, he's not quite sure how to respond... or how to explain the situation to his girlfriend, Mai.

Maybe he'll just focus on helping his panda-loving, stay-at-home sister achieve her goal of returning to school for the time being. But this is easier said than done, given that she hasn't left the house for two whole years...

Rascal Does Not Dream of a Sister Home Alone (light novel) by Andrew Cunningham, Keji Mizoguchi, and Hajime Kamoshida explores these challenging dynamics and humorous dilemmas.
