My Japanese writing and speaking skills are not as good as my reading, so I will write my review in English. Please forgive me~ hehe
This was the first Japanese BL novel I read! I was drawn in by the beautiful cover illustration~ Reading the summary, I knew I was going to love it. I really love 受け's type of personality hehe A little bit of stubborn but deep down, he's got a good heart! The 攻め was so perfectly written as well~ Handsome and so doting!! My favorite!!! After reading this one, I read a ton of 安西先生's novels and they were all very good.
Always looking forward to more and more of her stories, she's got such a wonderful way with words.

Umino-sensei is my most favorite BL author!! I've read a ton of her novels so far and still going.
策士と奥手の攻防戦 is one of my most favorites from her work collection. I usually don't like age-difference as a genre, but it works so well in this story, I definitely did not mind it. It’s such a cute and wholesome story, with some funny surprises along the way! I really love how the POV switches between the 攻め and 受け. I like to see how they both think so it was nice that it flip flopped. I also really enjoyed the 受け's personality. He was soo sooo funny, the way he acted versus his inner monologue. Truly, so adorable!
I'm always looking forward to more of Umino-sensei's works~
Forever a huge fan from USA ♡
