Your Letter by Hyeon A Cho

Hello fellow bookworms! May has come and gone so quickly, but thankfully it brought some warmer weather!

I would like to share the cutest little story that is reminiscent of the Studio Ghibli films, but is told in web-comic and game format. Your Letter, by Hyeon A Cho, begins with a girl named Sori, who was bullied in her previous school and changed schools because of it. Hesitant to make friends in her new school environment, she finds a letter underneath her desk by chance. The letter leads her on a scavenger hunt of learning secret hangouts in her school, who her classmates are, and even a list of the teachers and staff! Who sent these letters? Where do they lead? Can the person writing the letters become Sori's friend?

I recommend starting with the mobile game, which is a shortened version of the comic's beginning. If you want the full experience, you can read the comic first and then try out the game, or just start with the game and start with the comic for extra details - whichever you prefer. The game itself seems to only work on your phone, though this may change in the future, depending on the author's preference. The computer version of the link/game will not load fully and you will miss out on the experience. To start reading the comic by playing the game, visit the chapter Secret Letter here. Otherwise, read the full, free web-comic on Web Toon here.

In all, I LOVED Your Letter, and am quite addicted to Web Toon in general. :) This web-comic is a little gem that will take you about an hour or less to read, and will be sure to brighten your day.

 Happy last day of May! Hope you have some fun summer plans and books lined up - let me know what you're up to and reading in the comments!
