A House in Venice by Giovanni Mattioli and Vanna Vinci
Requirements: CBR Reader, 21 MB.
Overview: "Rosa Brundo is an art student whom has moved to Venice to continue her studies at the city’s Academy. She’s moved into part of an Aspern Papers-esque mansion, which is plagued with the ghosts of the past and her enigmatic, somewhat melancholy landlord. Who is he?
Combining elements of mystery and romance, with gorgeous Italian locations A House in Venice lingers long in the mind, and fascinates beyond its hundred pages. The unusual drawing style takes some getting used to, but by the end the conventional manga style begins to look a bit weak and ill-proportioned. This is a winning piece of artwork that conveys a beautiful mystery in every stroke of the pencil.
Five out of five. Stay tuned folks."

- A House in Venice or Una casa a Venezia is a one shot mystery manga by Italian artists Giovanni Mattioli and Vanna Vinci. Published by Kodansha this manga is read left to right like traditional Japanese. Taking place in the magical city of Venice(as the title says) the story is about a young art student Rosa who rents a room in an old mansion. She meets her handsome, mysterious, landlord Lorenzo and learns his dark secrets.
A lush manga with Gothic-style art and a gloomy mood. I was hooked to it from the first page. I love Rose and Lorenzo very much. I wish a man like Lorenzo existed in my life…I kind of knew that he was a vampire of something like that from the start since Rosa saw a coffin when she was exploring the new garden, also because when she does meet Lorenzo he later mentions that sunlight bothers him(cliche I know!).
I actually hate most vampire manga including Vampire Knight, I started to hate vampires since Twilight came out people became fanatic over it. Then a weeks ago I read this manga and now theyre not so bad anymore. I LOVE Lorenzo, I am going to find an Italian boyfriend like him one day~Anyway I give this manga 10 out of 10 rating. Vampire fans, Gothic story lovers alike should read it. I hope the artists keep drawing more manga too because I want to read!
