This was a cute enough little boy's love manga set in a world where demi-humans are divided by carnivore and herbivore. One prominent feature is that goats, who eat books and paper, are often banned from bookshops, but our main character Yagi is a goat who loves to read. He even has the ability to taste the emotions and feelings behind the words on the paper he writes, but the only place he can find a job is in a carnivore-territory bookstore owned by a wolf named Ookami. 

For some reason, I could not connect to this book at all. It had some of my favorite tropes so I'm frustrated that I couldn't put my finger on why! I think maybe the characters are a little flat, and the pacing seems a little off. The art style is cute though, and this will be good for people who like opposites attract stories, childhood friends to strangers to lovers, or soft boys.
