One recommendation I’d make (if your haven’t read it already) is One room TA I feel like it has similar vibes of complex and lovable characters that don’t adhere to the typical yaoi roles
Thank you for the recommendation! I saw the story passed by my feed quite a lot but haven't read it. I guess it's time to read it. ♡
You are so right!!! You know, I read All About Lust a couple years ago and when I came across One-Room TA, it was partly cuz of the art, but I was so pleasantly surprised because the main couple was like so relatable but also very realistic in the form of how the rifts in their relationships are created and the importance of communication. I like how both authors incorporates people outside their relationship into how they behave with their SO, I mean like the importance of establishing boundaries, having friendships that keep you grounded, etc. honestly, I just want either of them to have an English physical release so I can quickly add them to my book collection lol
After skipping this story since it's release, I finally read it.
The story was fun and quite unique. Each character were given a unique personality that makes you not hate them. It's chef's kiss!! Like wow! Each trope is uncommon and was showed really well.
The philosophies that come with this story makes you think more about love and how people perceive them. I like our Mr. Asexual, I feel closer to him than the other characters probably becuz we like to listen stories about other people. The way the author add him to story is just mwah, and his role is just perfect! A background character that affects the main characters life positively and gives them advice is quite rare considering most bg just cause trouble or doubt.
I like how their bed roles doesn't show in their personality. Like it's normal to do this and that. Just like an adult, wait, this must be how adults think! Yea. Most manhwa I've read is just like their bed role become their personality that if pisses me off, specially the ukes, "like you're a man, why are you so weak? Always a damsel in distress?!" Or the semes that are always intimidating, "is being shitty your whole personality?always acting like a wolf? Cringe-". However, this story is so different! I love it♡ 9.7/10
I would love to read similar stories like this. Recommendations are open ☆
