IT IS SO GOOD AND SO WORTH READING?? The MCs are so lovable like I love both of them sm!! Actress MC is so amazing, cool, beautiful, and she’s sticks to her mortals no matter what and I love her sm sm sm. Fan MC is just so nerdy about theatre and it’s jsut like fun how she interacts with her and doesn’t push boundaries. UGH BUT BUBBLE GUM ACTRESS. FUCK HER. She pissed me off SM. Wdym you’re not dating?? I’ve read a ton of romances?? You didn’t even like her?? You BLUSHED??? What the actual fuck? And literally just gtfo of her life c’mon!! Read the fucking room dipshit. We love Wen, the supportest of support characters. I hope she got her job back after she quit because goddamn.. They had some miscommunication but it wasn’t the fun on miscommunication trope and like they talk it out and BOTH CONFESSS TOGETHER WITHOUT DENYING ITT!!!??!?? Like sometimes you want that slow burn but other times you want that decisiveness and if you want the latter this is the one for you. Or me since only I’ll read this. It jsut doesn’t miss.

Rivals to lovers troupe. Bro I was smiling like a little gremlin the whole time. The chairman is so obsessed LMAO. I was really funny and cute and like I JUST REALLY LIKE IT. It’s not like SUPER DUPER UNIQUE or anything but it’s still really good and entertaining. Comments are kinda realistic. WHEN THEY CAME OUT THO OMGGG ACTUALLY SCREAMING

I CAN’T EXPRESS MY LOVE FOR THIS ONE. Like literally crying because of how good this was. I like how Jimmy realizes his feelings and doesn’t lie to himself and how he helps Ethan with his problems and is just there for him unconditionally. They totally forgot about Jimmy’s backstory but it doesn’t matter that much because the ending is SO FUCKING SWEET. The last line too made me cry..

OK so like it’s good I think but also kind of weird and very strange so like you met his ex girlfriend‘s boyfriend and then we fall in love (obviously). Which is a very interesting set up. I thought it was gonna be like he gets dumped, and then he meets someone else, but no. Three blonde hair is mostly an asshole and the whole set up is a bit strange like how does the switching system work? How did he randomly find a pendant if the other one was in a museum? Also do NOT forgive that teacher. He drugged you remember?? Overall good but not great.

“No. Wait. I’m gay?” (52) This one is quite fun but it’s a manhua and for some real the ppl who translate manhuas translate them rlly weirdly but it’s readable. Not much plot but it’s fun! Like becoming a ship of you and your costar then actually dating them is so silly.

Kill the Lights

Complete | Mink, Jangryang | 2000 released

Honestly rlly fricking good but a LOT OF SMUT. Like SO MUCH OF IT. Every single chapter at the end theyre just going at it. But yeah. Love Mason so much. He deserves the world. The ML is a bit crazy but yk. There’s also a MASSIVE age gap between the two so idk how I feel about that… but hey! I thought they gave us more backstory abt the characters but they rlly don’t like I would like to know more abt Mason’s past but we only get a small glimpse and most of that is with Noah in it so. Anyways! If you want a lot of smut and a bit of plot! Hopefully Mason can open his coffee shop…

IMPOSSIBLE NG

Ongoing | Go seon-young,고선영 | 2019 released

Stoppp Ian is so pretty… I love the FL sm…like she’s so awkward but not in a “I’m so quirky” way but in a real way. Likeeee meeting ur favorite character… IRL??? I would act like that too girl. I WOULD ACTUALLY MELT DURING THE ONE SCENE AT THAT LORD’S HOUSE… Hey!!! You can’t cheat on him like that with the redhead (20). Omg ML lore??? Also not even trying to take a little peek?? Rlly? Ian has already fallen for her so badly lmao. Like trying to be more like Hui and being annoyed that the FL only likes Hui and not him (21). IANNN MY LOVE OMGGG (24). Ian is actually so in love (26). OH FUCK YOU. No way her first kiss wasn’t even with Ian. Guys. (30). AAAAAA THE KISS WITH IAN. Omg the longing Ian has for her but he is forced to act like the character and he can’t even be his true self bc she only likes the character and he wants her to like him that badly… the jealous kiss omg LIKEEE IAN MY LOVE OMG (34). STOP IAN KISSING HER IN FRONT OF EVERYONE TO MAKE THE REDHEAD MAD. I do feel for the redhead bc he’s a nice guy. It’s too bad he got stuck as the second ML…hopefully they find someone else for him (35). Aww Yeon and redhead, also the villain popping up… (37). Nooooo Ian … “why did you kiss me?” “Oh…I thought that’s just what Hui would do…” (42). Also I get that she wants to help them but yk there’s physically no other way to get back to their lives. Maybe it’s selfish but she rlly can’t expect Ian to want to stay in this world like what abt his loved ones? What abt your loved ones? Idk man. Getting exposed was actually the worst thing for him tho. “Don’t use my affection against me”. Ouch. She’s right tho but that stings bc she doesn’t realize that he likes her sm and he’s only using Hui bc he wants to cling onto her so badly but can’t. Also now the redhead thinks he has a chance with her so that’s so fun (43). Why did they make this angst. Guys. I’m actually on the verge of tears. “What is Ian to you?” He’s basically screaming “look at me look at ME.” He’s so in love with her but doesn’t know how to say it. He just wants her to think about him, Ian, not his character but him. But he’s bottling up everything and lashing out. Bro this chapter is actually so beautiful I’m crying (47). Oh! His sister is… something. On the bright side at least they made up with each other? (53). ISEKAI AND TIME TRAVEL??? Goddamn is she gonna tell him they isekaied into that world? Also that original timeline is so goddamn tragic I can’t. She saved the world but lost what made the world meaningful (56). Guys second MLs deserve happy endings. Why did he fall in love with the FL again… my heart hurts… omg. Also the time travel leading to the isekai… I mean technically speaking it is the redhead’s fault they got stuck there (58). WHAT. REDHEAD. OH MY GOD WHY DID YOU FORESHADOW IT OH MY GOD. YOU LIVED YOUR LIFE TWICE ONLY TO NOT HAVE A HAPPY END EITHER TIME???? (64). Poor girl oh my god she’s actually traumatized from this, it’s not much different from the ending of the first life now is it… poor Ian is still acting selfless . Guys… I can’t why did they make it sad. “Don’t worry even without me Hui will still be alive” IAN PLS (68). Okay that was the sweetest and most heart melting confession I’ve read in a while. Ian is just such a sweet guy omg (69 nice). When the light went back into her eyes GUYSSS THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL. THE ENDING???? LIKE SHE GOT THE DRAGON’S GEM AND HAD A PRETTY CUTSCENE AND WAS ABLE TO GO BACK TO HER WORLD TO SEE HER FAMILY AGAIN AND NOW SHE’S DATING IAN IN THE MODERN WORLD. And she was able to get over her fear of ppl looking at her and it’s so cute and sweet omg. Happy ending for all other than redhead poor guy. It’s sweet that at the end he was retelling the story so it’s like a loop yk? I wish second MLs could find a happy ending. Redhead spent sm of his life dedicated to her and sacrificed sm but let her go regardless bc he’s okay as long as she’s happy even if it’s not with him. THAT is true love. Like when he was able to make a wish he didn’t wish for his happiness or for the FL to love him but rather for her happiness. Also he’s so smart with the wish too… i wonder if ppl in the isekai world still remember the story…or maybe redhead is the only one that does and that’s why he’s telling ppl. Also for the drama’s ending to be changed too is crazy. Honestly probably one of the best isekais I’ve read in a while. And it’s not like a royalty isekai so it felt rlly fresh.

I liked it but at the same time it was kinda flat. Like after the stalker arch it was rlly only about the three relationships (and only the first two were interesting tbh bc the other 3 members of Noble are not interesting enough for me to care about). And yet again this had the more interesting second relationship syndrome, bc I LOVE THE FRIENDS TO ENEMIES TO LOVERS TROUPE. Like Tarius was an ass but when he was interacting with L.B. I knew they had a thing for each other and it was so sweet.
