Volume 2: Natsu no Awa
Koibumi Biyori was published in English as A Perfect Day for Love Letters by Del Rey from June 28, 2005, to November 29, 2005.
Koibumi Biyori won the 29th Kodansha Manga Award for the shoujo category in 2005.
It's truly a beautiful story, even though it doesn't center on a single character. Each chapter narrates how a couple meets, naturally through the concept of a love letter. It's hard for me to do justice to it in words; I'd rather recommend reading a few chapters online. The book is available in English, but only as a two-volume set because Del Ray omitted two stories from volume 3, I believe, due to some 'nudity' in those chapters. This is why the second volume in English will be a bit thicker than the first.
