Stigmata - Aikon

Complete | TAKAHASHI Hidebu | 2019 released

➷ plot: ★★★★★ ➷ characters: ★★★★★ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★★ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ ok so i didnt expect the plot to stick to solving one case for the entirety of it, but its ok i still really liked it !! i just wished we could see more cases afterwards bc the first volume was so interesting hehe <33 i think we could already see some slight developments of the couple's feelings from the first book and their feelings grew more in here which is nice ^^ i just wished we could see more of them bc they only got together towards the end >< but nonetheless, i was still very satisfied bc the extras gave us some sweet and wholesome moments ♡ the pace and development was nice :D i could really see how they both cared for each other, esp kuroiwa, even though hes emotionless most of the time we can really see how much he cares for asako the author did a really great job at making everyone suspicious, i really thought that nishi was the one who killed mari but to our surprise there was a much deeper plot and it all made sense in the end which felt so satisfying the plot and art style are just amazing <3 i dont really have anything else to say ~ even though i already knew the plot twists and stuff, this is still a book that i would gladly reread bc i really enjoyed every single bit of it ^^ i wish there was more stories like this, not only is it thrilling but it's also sweet bc of the romance >< i wanted to see more of them as an established couple but the extras were able to satisfy me hehe so i'm fine overall i really really enjoyed this !!! would recommend this to true crime enthusiasts ~ another worth it read i loved it a lot

➷ plot: ★★★★★ ➷ characters: ★★★★★ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★★ (non-romantic) ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ (non-romantic) ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ this was amazing !!! i read this even though it wasnt the bl version yet bc i really love true crime and mystery thriller themed plots this was so unique esp bc of asako's stigmata, i've never ready anything like that before which is why i was so amazed ❣️ each case was so intriguing and i love how nothing overlaps !! the characters are very lovable as well <33 i love kuroiwa's emotionless yet caring personality >< i'm excited to see how their love will develop in the sequel ^^ i also love their female colleague <3 shes so gorgeous and comedic in a way ^^ tbh i have a lot more to say, but i'm just speechless rn at how good this was the cases were simple yet sophisticated esp the execution of the scenes paired with the author's amazing art style we also got to see a bit of asako's past which tells me that we'll probably see more of it in the sequel :> i feel like there will be angst but i'm here for it overall i really enjoyed this one !! i was so hooked to the cases ^^ i'm immediately reading the sequel after leaving this review ヾ(^-^)ノ ♡ i dont have anything else to say bc this was just amazing i love everything about this <33 i'll probably find more similar works like this one :D this was such a worth it read <33

Kakumei no α

Complete | Kashima Kotaru,KASHIMA Kotaru | 2019 released

➷ plot: ★★★★★ ➷ characters: ★★★★★ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★★ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ this is by far one of the most interesting omegaverse plots that i've read so far ♡ the plot had conflicts but it wasn't annoying and love still prevailed which is just *chef's kiss* tbh i overlooked the fact that they're step brothers bc i just love their dynamic, the alpha x beta pairing and the fact that maurice was the uke it's a very refreshing pairing ^^ i really got attached to them <33 i love the fact that instead of despising claude, maurice took him in and joined forces with him bc he knew that claude had his reasons as to why he did what he did ^^ i also understand why simon did that which is why i'm not really mad at him or anything, hes a selfless person and he just loved maurice so much so that he was really ready to give him up for the sake of letting him achieve his goals :< i rarely put reviews/comments now, but i just really liked this one both the plot and the art style are amazing esp for an omegaverse one, i really enjoyed this <33 i also liked the extra, it was cute and hot >< this was a great read !!

Complete | Megumi Kitano, 北野仁 | 2000 released

i finally got to reread this masterpiece >< gosh i'm really inlove with the plot and of course the couple tbh sex friends to lovers isn't really my cup of tea but the consent was so sexc and the way you can really feel and see how their feelings grew for each other and how both of them slowly changed (for the better) bc of each other's influence <33 it had the right amount of angst and fluff (+ domesticity)~ i also love how supportive yuuto's family is, esp his mom pls she's the best girl !! i'm also glad that sora's friends were very accepting and supportive as well (´ω`) i just love all of them :(( yuuto's very precious and i'm glad that he finally has sora >< i'm glad for sora too bc yuuto helped him to get through his painful past with baseball :< he even changed his hair color and started to become more responsible by job hunting ㅠㅠ i just love relationships where you can really see the growth of each individual bc that means the relationship you have is healthy and is making you into a better person :')) i also wanted to see more of them esp after they started a new life together >< but i was very satisfied with seeing them happy so idk what else to say bc i'm just really obsessed with this one !! i love them so so much >< i'm also so obsessed with the art style !! all of them are so gorgeous this was such a great reread !! (there was a time that i got lazy with giving reviews so hehe i finally got to reread this masterpiece and gave my review bc this deserves it !! ❣️) i will for sure read this again in the future !! also recommending
