Not for the Faint of Heart
Very short Mc works at a haunted house and the seme is a ghost who hangs around the haunted house. Mc actually sucks at his job so the ghost proposes a deal that if they date the ghost will help him with scaring people. Later the book will start to lean towards if the mc should let the ghost pass on or not now that he’s fallen for the ghost. Even though the ghost turned out to not actually be dead, just in a coma, it still hurts to think about. “Regret always lingers. There’s no way to stop it” :(

Cure Blood
very short (5.5 ch) I was sobbing oh my fucking god Vampire x human It covers the cruelties of immortality and how you have to watch everyone grow and move on with their lives and you’re still stuck in the past The way he had to say goodbye to his family only 7 years into immortality and spent 37 with the seme :(( This would’ve been in my favorites list but it’s just too short to actually tell if it’s a favorite or if I just really liked it “Please forget me when I die” :((
Cold-Blooded Beast
A man picks up his pronounced dead boss on the street and finds the boss has lost his memory and turns into a snake. He takes care of his boss in snake and human form in hopes the boss will get his memory back. It goes way deeper than just a workplace romance, as the boss has been watching over and waiting for the mc for about a hundred years and was in love with the mc in his past life. The boss took the bad luck out of the mc's new life and burdened it, sealing himself away from the world but the mc found him as a child by accident and they were once again entangled with each other. While i don't know if i will ever finish this book, I will say, it was quite the experience to read. This book was SO CUTE at the start but after reading about the mc's past life, i was crying. Seeing the mc's lonely death wishing to see the ml one last time with his hand dropping made me sob. I think it was very mind clearing in a way to see how when the ml tried to put the mc in a fake world to protect him, he had to communicate to the ml that he wanted to feel what was real. I love how they cleared up what could've quickly become toxic. They're just so cute together. I don't think i'll be able to bring myself to finish it and i'm okay with that for right now. c: -started reading 2024/7/1
