I was drawn to this book by the cover. Murder mystery and a train? Two of my favorite things! I'm so thankful I found this book. It captured me from the first page and kept me on the edge of my seat, something that is hard to do with my wandering mind. Maybe it was just me, but it was difficult to suss out who was lying or being truthful, but it was fun to draw my own conclusions and see if I was right about who done it! The ending through me for a loop and I lost my mind!
I recommend this book 100%! You won't regret reading it.

I'm not sure if it's because the characters are so amazingly written or because I can relate so much to them, but I love them so much. I wish I could live at Amamizukan with these awesome ladies! This story is full of humor and relatable content, with a dash of drama for flavor. When I read this manga, I honestly can't stop smiling, it's easily my favorite manga. No matter how bad I'm feeling or how upset I am, when I read Princess Jellyfish it makes me so happy and I forget about everything that's bothering me.
Honestly, I feel like there's something magical about this series. I've always been a tomboy and never, NEVER, wanted to be a princess as a child, but seeing Tsukimi and the others slowly blooming... it kinda makes me re-think that. I kinda wanna be a princess now lol damn it Kuranosuke. No matter what genres you're into, even if you don't like/don't read manga, I highly HIGHLY encourage you to at least try this series, I don't think you'll regret it.
The women at Amamizukan are all otakus in their own right;
Tsukimi, the main character, is obsessed with Jellyfish.
Chieko, the manager of Amamizukan, is obsessed with traditional clothing and Japanese dolls.
Mayaya is obsessed with records of the Three Kingdoms.
Banba is obsessed with all kinds of trains.
And Jiji-sama is obsessed with mature/old men.
There's also Mejiro, but not much is known about her due to her extreme social anxiety.
All of these women are loners and stick to themselves, and each other, constantly going on about their obsessions. They don't work, instead recieving monthly payments from their parents. This is largely due to their anxiety and inability to even be near regular folk or, even worse, stylish folk. They live their lives in relative ease, struggling between blowing their money on their obsessions and saving it for food.
Things start to shift when Tsukimi meats an outgoing stylist known as Kuranosuke! The wheels of fate are turning, and they soon find their lives flipped upside down! The real question is - will these lovely ladies buckle under the pressure? Or will they fight their own demons and come out on top?
