Love Shuttle
I had heard many thing about this story, but I found my reading experience to be average at most. The main couple was interesting to read about, especially when looking at their development and how they get more and more comfortable around each other. The side pairing had potential, but everything was executed poorly in my opinion.
Lucky Paradise
A story about toxic love and letting go of people who don't want the best for you. It addresses the process of accepting and letting go of someone you hold dear to your heart. It really tugs on your heartstrings, especially when you see how people pleasing and neglecting yourself becomes such a big part of the characters and plot.
Why not, CEO?!
This is a story full of well-known tropes that take up the entirety of the plot. It has good potential, but the plot wasn't interesting to me because of how cliche it was. It did have some cute moments in there, but I wanted to see more development overall. The whole thing ended up feeling boring towards the end.
Touch Up
A story about healing. In every sense of the word. It also depicts the aspect of abandonment and trust issues quite well. The beginning of the story was so good, but I slowly lost interest as the whole thing continued. It felt like every plotline was rushed in order for a new one to start. This had a lot of potential, but was executed poorly in my opinion.
Why Are You So Kind To Everyone Except Me?
This story deals with miscommunication as one of the main aspects of the plot. A lot of misunderstandings could have been avoided, if the characters just sat down to talk for a minute. So, the plot was bland, filled with yearning and an overall lack of communication. It wasn't the best in my opinion.
Unfinished Business
This is fucked up, but it depicts obsession and toxicity so well. This is not for everyone, so proceed with caution. The suspension and all the secrets, that slowly get brought to light, made this even better. To me, this is not romantic at all, and I won't view it as such. But it is a good psychological yaoi where the plot gets wrapped up nicely.
Countdown to Love
A very cute story about young love. It has a small element of misunderstanding, but it was done surprisingly well. I loved how we see the relationships develop, and I wanted it to be longer. Really cute.
Our Future (Cheok Kong)
This was nothing special in my opinion. The story has supernatural elements that don't get explored enough, and the plot was quite boring to read. The characters were fine, though I have a love-hate relationship with the side couple. There are other stories that handle bdsm much better than what was portrayed here.
Only Need to Love Once
This is such an impactful story. For those people, including myself, who struggle/struggled to accept themselves and their sexuality, this is for you. This may be a one shot, but it tugs at your heartstrings in a beautiful and painful way. It does contain homophobia and slurs, so please proceed with caution if that triggers you.
