Recs if you like Honey and Clover, Vol. 1...

List inspired by @Lady_of_the_Library's club post. Recommendations provided by the PB community! These stories are intended for adult readers (18+) and often feature realistic, mature romantic relationships, complex emotional situations, and sometimes explicit content.

Manga that were in Shoujo Beat Magazine supposedly (I'm doing this in alphabetical order in English)

I love manga and shoujo and josei are my favorite demographics. Consider this list a potential starter pack in shoujo and josei

A continuation of my previous list!

Inspired by the popular in the 00s list, I wanted to make a list cataloguing all the manga I owned in high school. Please read to the tune of Somebody That I Used to Know by Gotye.

Some notable manga series to enjoy. Shonen-focused with a mix of Shojo.
