Papa Datte, Shitai
3.5/5. The sex scenes are common in this one, and it's very smutty. The father, Naruse, is incredibly sexy. There were many sweet and romantic moments between the overworked father and Asumi, but the way the manga started left a bad taste in my mouth. Unfortunately, rape was heavily romanticized in this manga.
The Part-time Housekeeper!
2.5/5. He should've been with Boseok. This was way too short and the ending was rushed. Plus the seme was super unlikeable and rude the whole way through. Their relationship felt superficial and not genuine; I don't even think they liked each other that much.
Unlucky Mansion
This is my favourite josei series of all time omg. I'm particularly in love with the author, and for good reason. This manhwa is such a masterpiece. It perfectly balances a tone of light-heartedness with angst, heavy emotions, and drama. At times, I'm sad beyond belief, at others I'm giddy and gushing over the characters, and at others brimming with laughter. Each of the characters hold their own in the story; they each have a unique story, personality, and deep thoughts and emotions. Some characters, like Kwon Joon and Chae Min, have this dramatic flair that makes them so interesting to watch, but at the same time, the author adds depth to their characters by showing their introspective sides. *NOT TO MENTION, WOO JIN'S BLUSHING FACE GIVES ME LIFE.* The story is quite a slow-burn, and much of it doesn't appear to be romantic, but by the time they do show feelings for each other, it is completely worth it. One of the reasons why I love this manhwa is because it is unique in that the characters fall for each other and show interest in each other at different times; it's not synchronized, which I find realistic and refreshing in a josei. My favourite thing about this manhwa, however, is the comedy. I found myself laughing hysterically in so many chapters due to the antics of the characters, and the witty dialogue. The art is so beautiful too. Such a funny, dramatic, cute, and addictive read!
