    <body><![CDATA[The 8th installment of the Fruits Basket series is absolutely hilarious! I don't think I've ever laughed so hard reading a book before. Shigure is really the cause of it all, but its great! In this book, we get to meet Ritsu Sohma, who is so fabulous!]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I never used to like Manga books till I watched the anime version of this manga and loved it so much that i wanted to know what happened in the series after the anime stopped so i started the manga series. Read it even if you dont like manga because it is amazing. ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[A really fun and cute series. The premise is really original and enjoyable. The characters are interesting and lovable. My only complaint is the story-line is a bit drug-out.]]></body>
