A girl who's looking for something to do with her life, and a bookworm who misses being around other bookworms. A chance encounters leads them to bond over a book. A friendship (or more?) between them starts to bloom, as they each find a part of themselves to share with each other.

The two leads are cute. The bookworm kinda reminds me of Yuna from Pink Lemonade, and the story is wholesome. The supporting characters seem like they'll be well developed (they're already pretty involved). There's hints of possible 片思い from one of them. Occasionally some of the transitions are slightly unclear, but nothing drastic. I'm looking forward to volume 2.

Language-wise it's on the simpler side, and would be great choice after reading a few simpler ones (see recs on my profile). There's furigana for the first occurrence of names, and maybe an odd word or two.
