(Spoiler-free review) Summary:A simple, well-executed, steady-paced story for those who enjoy humorous and sweet character interactions on a day-to-day basis.Full Review:"I’m Having Trouble With a High School Girl I Meet on the Commuter Train Who for Some Reason Has Taken a Liking to Me" (my word this title is such a hassle to type) is a story about... well, exactly what the title says. It's a story about an office worker who struggles with interacting with this high-school girl who has suddenly begun talking to him on the commuter train he takes to work every day.Pretty simple, no? Well while that may be true, I have to say that all the chapters up until where I'm currently at have been very entertaining and amusing to read through. It's very fun seeing the quirky and interesting conversations that happen between the characters in this novel. Up until where I've read, the story has been going at a very easy-going and tame pace, which for some, might be boring and slow, but I find that to be a plus because it is nice to read a story like this every now and then and take a break from the multitude of the fast-paced, action-packed stories that I often read. I had wanted to give this novel a 4.5, but since you can only go for a 5 or a 4, I settled with a 4 because while the novel is great, it's not really a novel that has much impact, though that doesn't mean I discourage anyone to give this novel a read.My only complaint about this novel is that the chapters are quite short (usually 3-5 minutes of reading per chapter), which is vexing since I'd love to see more of the cast. According to Novel Updates though, this story still has a long way to go, so I'm looking forward to seeing more from this novel.
