Uh-oh.. I can't believe I haven't written a review for my MOST FAVE YAOI NOVEL of all time?!!

Anyway here!!

Story: 10/10

Only The Ring Finger Knows is probably the most sweetest thing that I've ever read. I loved this novel for a seriously long time and even now it's still making me go "kyaaa" over it.

The story is.. I guess your typical boys love, school life story. But I can't help but to think that there's a uniqueness in the story. Like how they (Kazuki & Wataru) fell for each other.

It started with the ring that Wataru lost. Then after a week, it came back to him and after that he became very attached with it. Then one day, he accidentally exchanged rings with the most popular boy in school, Kazuki Yuichi. And Wataru was shocked to find that they have the same ring! Is it just a coincidence? Or is there a hidden meaning about it?

Thoughts like that will run in your head when you start reading it.

This novel contains 5 Volumes in total. But I've only read up to Volume 4 and some snippets in Volume 5 (because the English version of the book itself will be released on August 2012 - According to June site). And believe me.. when I haven't read the snippets in Volume 5.. I was like "OMFG I want more! SO CLIFFHANGER!" As in I totally can't sleep wondering what will happen in Volume 5 but I was glad because I found a community where that has a fan English translation on it before.

Art: 10/10

The art is just.. too beautiful. Another reason why I so totally love this novel! Not only the story but the art is a masterpiece! Odagiri Hotaru-sensei really did give justice on the illustrations!

Characters: 10/10

I just loved how the characters interact with each other. Especially Kazuki and Wataru. For me they are the perfect couple!

Kazuki - Well in the novel, he is described as the most popular guy in school.. handsome.. etc! But I just love the way how he fell for Wataru. It's unlike his character. Haha

Wataru - He is just your average, normal guy in the story but despite that, Kazuki fell for him. He is stubborn and I love him because he is not the girlish-uke type which I dislike.

Asaka - Has feelings for Wataru (like a love triangle)and I really feel sorry for him but I really really love him, too..

Shohei - Kazuki's older brother. In the story he is like the obstacle between Kazuki and Wataru's relationship.. but nevertheless.. I still kinda like him!

Kawamura - Wataru's bestfriend. I'm glad that he's part of the cast because his appearance is like a relief. He's so funny and Wataru is lucky to have a bestfriend like him~

Karin - Wataru's younger sister. She knows the secret relationship of Wataru & Kazuki.. and I like her, too!

Enjoyment: 10/10

I just everything about this novel. Story/plot, characters, art, etc.. it's almost perfect for me!

Overall: 10/10

If you're not really into reading novels.. then I suggest you to read the manga adaptation first! :D It's short.. only 1 Volume (it covers the first half of Volume 1 in the novel) and I'm sure you will want more and will make you to read the novel, too!

If you like sweet-light romance with a bit of drama story.. then this one is for you!
