Double Trap
i really liked this one! the psychological standpoint was well executed and i enjoyed how we got to see yura navigate his mental state with jinsung. the side pairing was also nice. overall, well written and great character development. only 4* though, i’m not a fan of the age gap. a 6 yr gap would be fine if they met as adults, but yura’s obsession with jinsung started when they were both kids. i do recognize how that contributes to the plot and why yura’s personality split, but it still left a sour taste in my mouth.

this was very silly and lighthearted. obsessive troupe so if thats not your thing… well
Again
i wanted to give this one 4* but then it just kept dragging on and on lol. the first half was super cute, great plot and flow, but the random kidnap scene gave wattpad 2012. especially with how the main couple hooked up for the first time right after. no trauma, no recovery, just kidnap to sex within the same hour. after that the story fell off a bit for me. felt like the author wanted to include so many different things, and instead of picking a few, just threw every idea ever in and rushed through each one. oh well.

What's with this strange dream?!
i first read this one ages ago when it was originally being uploaded. safe to say its still one of my favorites. i love it sm. the main pairing is super cute together, the art is stunning, and the plot is plotting. its very unique for a bl. i wld kill for a side story of ibeom and jungoh’s relationship later on in life.
High Clear
i havent kicked my feet and squealed like that over a story in a long time lol. so much secondhand embarrassment. it got a little slow towards the end, but overall worth the read if you want something lighthearted and silly
Stranger Than Friends
i would have given this 5 stars, but the side couple annoys me lol. the main story is cute and the art is great. the character designs are addicting. theres not much i would change as far as plot goes. i do wish we got to explore yi-hyeok’s mom’s sexuality and happiness. it would have also been nice to see his boss get reprimanded over the way he treated yi-hyeok. oh well. still a fine story without it. the side couple fell off hard for me. i hate how their relationship began. it was very sexually abusive. sanho deserves someone who treats him right from the start and appreciates who he is. tak isnt that. hes a pain in the ass, both literally and figuratively. then theres the whole homophobia thing with tak’s father. its so poorly written. normally i cant wait for the side couple’s arc, but this one left a sour taste in my mouth. it takes away from the story overall.
No Love Zone Webtoon
mixed feelings on this one. eunkyum is cute but jihyuk is unlikeable most of the time. i dont like how he treats eunkyum, he’s very manipulative at certain points of the story. it was bearable up until eunkyum’s ex attacked him and instead of comforting him, jihyuk guilt tripped him for sex. after that i was over him lol. they both have their lovey, cute moments, but its just 90% sex and jihyuk being a dick. this story’s saving grace was how fluffy the scenes with the 2 siblings were. a breath of fresh air amiss the usual bl bs
