"Aruga’s beautiful character work will have readers strung along on Yoru and Tenjaku’s emotional journey, hoping for the two to find happiness while knowing they’re bound for heartbreak first." –School Library Journal"The difficult questions teenagers normally face are replaced with harder questions: 'Who will love me if even my parents won't?'... I strongly recommend Sheltering Eaves... I hope these kids come out alright." –Anime News Network
