Up until now, the first 3 volumes were pretty short, silly stories, it's a tad odd they chose to go with longer ones for the last volume but I really enjoyed the one on how they became a family.

There was a little more detective in this volume plus it provided the origin story for the paper sisters. Also, Yomiko Readman made an appearance. Still not anywhere near the Read or Die series.

“I think that sunset is so beautiful… because the sun worked so hard today. If you do your best, you can end in glory.”

Apt.

The last volume of this series has the intrepid trio traveling to Tokyo to help a child author get over her writing slump. Helping a writer gain important experiences isn’t easy, especially if she’s only 13. Anita proves the lifesaver of the group as she renews her friendship with Hisa while her dreamy sisters once again get dizzy over books. She’s quite caring underneath her sometimes gruff demeanor and that really shines through in this volume. This manga concludes with a startling backstory about how the Paper Sisters Detective Agency got started (one that I won’t reveal here) and a satisfying resolution to Anita’s constant, inexplicable dislike of books. Congratulations to the author and artist for this light-hearted addition to the “Read or Die” series.

it was the next book in the series

Hon Kong and Tokyo modern day

the conflicts are that the sisters have to protect a writer. the book also goes back intime showing us how the sisters came together (not real sisters) and how they saved Anita.

Anita is dynamic she changes a lot. moody, mature, book lover. page 16 "Mags! put the horror behind you!"

family isnt related by blood but by bond.

dont use reading strategy

this book was amazing!!

I loved these four volumes of Read or Dream as much as I disliked the four volumes of Read or Die.

I recommend the Read or Die OVA, Read or Dream manga, and Read or Dream tv series. If you love books, you will love these stories.
