Haven’t really read it, but from all I’ve read about it I got the feel for it and my theory for most stories like this that get super popular over better plotted ones come down to simplicity I think. These stories aren’t deep. They’re just eye candy so it’s easy for people to jump into them. Another thing being that it’s a fantasy and a lot of people fantasize about things like that happening to them even if in real life they know it’s not right. It’s simply a fantasy and they can live it out through their reading.
That’s my 2 cents not only about this story, but others similar in toxicity and popularity.
i lovveee that answer and i completely agree. a lot of people dont usually care for plot and they just want to read something they can digest (i completely get that im exactly tht way i just cant read toxic stories) and i dont blame them its nice i just cant read toxic stories since it stresses me out??
Ahh i love fluff, i alsl read alot Father daughter, isekai and player stuff. I believe my taste is quite balanced. I have this thing where people reccomend me the worst stories they've ever come across and i read it and rate it. I'm quite commited to the toxic/psychological/dark themes just bc i enjoy seeing how much it takes to make me uncomfy... And it's like u said, when we started out toxic bls were all the rage then so alot of people start with them. Honestly if I had to give a recc to someone new it would be Salad days Instead of something like bj Alex just bc its so perfect
thats super cool!!!! im genuinely so jealous cause im trying to read stories i usually wouldnt but it takes a lot out of me cause i purely read just for enjoyment there is one story i would never read but i actually really love atm (mostly just cuz im uploading it) which is joseon streamer which is about a girl who streams when she cooks but she gets transported to a different timeline but literally you r everything i wish i could be
I totally get that. Im always afraid to start something and not like it and then feel like I wasted my time. But I like to think about it in a way tha makes it easier to handle " if you dont know what you don't like, how will you be able to choose what you do like?" helps a ton with starting with things I don't normally would reach for
im actually so confused can someone pleaseee explain to me the appeal of jinx?! like im wondering whats so good about it im just wondering???
