Camino de Regreso a Casa - by Kanako Nishi (Paperback)

About the Book

Kaoru stops at the beginning of the slope. The house she grew up in now seems much smaller than she remembered. But when Sakura comes out to greet him wagging her tail, the feeling of confusion disappears. Kaoru is at home. And the time has come to reunite with her family. There was a time when the Hasegawas were the perfect family. His parents always smiled and exuded love everywhere. Her younger sister, Miki, was the bravest girl she had ever seen. And her brother, Hajime, was first at anything she tried, and filled the world with unique beauty. The same couldn't be said about Kaoru. He didn't stand out at anything in particular: at school he was good, but not the best; He loved girls, but never enough. His brothers, however, shone like the brightest stars in the sky. And Kaoru didn't mind being sheltered from the light they reflected. But even the most wonderful families can be torn apart.
