Hold Me Safe/Holding room
Walk on Water
It was a comforting read. I enjoyed my time with Yeowoon/Ed and Glenn/Creed. It was a sweet ride into the relationship and the sex scenes felt...real honestly. Something about the way the looked at one another felt real. The only thing that sucked was Chang Liu, I hated that instead of finally maturing and just admitting his feelings for Yeowoon like a good man, he resorted to SA him. Like ugh...such a stain of what could have been a bittersweet ending to his one sided affection. Like his grandmother being cruel to him sucked but for him to do that to the only person by his side showed how cruel he really is. Other then that, it was a enjoyable read!

Pearl Boy
I fucking love Dooshik and Jooha; Dooshik is literally a breath of fresh air man! To have man love you unconditionally without set backs has to make your jump. Before he even loved Jooha he knew he deserved love and protection and I adore never once did the author try and make it seem like he was truly in it for the pearls, it was always just Jooha and I commend her for that Ever character was great to read even fuck Pilwon though he and the twins made me sick. They were all a perfect sense of twisted and destruction put together. I could absolutely read this again and again!
Under the Green Light
I love myself some Jin! Sexy and knows what he wants. I appreciate his self awareness and that even if he is using Matthew for sex. It's not out of malicious intent but just...he likes sex and Matthew is available. I also enjoy Matthew a lot...young and a bit broken not nothing super insane. They make a interesting couple to say the least Ending Update: definitely enjoyed my time with Jin and Matthew! I don't think the angst was too crazy which fit the story, characters didn't randomly change and only changed for the better for their specific lifestyles. I will always have a nitpick for making one of the characters younger and having the other interact with them in their childhood (just always pushes that creep boundary) this one didn't do it to the point I felt uncomfortable but Jin and Matthew could have been roughly the same age and we got the same story.
Mania
I didn't even realize how invested I was in Yeojin and Munhyeok's story until these last 5 chapters. My heart was racing so fast when they reunited! It's toxic and honestly a bit sad how dependent both of them our own one another but I can't bring myself to hate anything about it. They're devotion is commendable and I happy they can find solace and love in all of the pain and emptiness life gave them. Also both of them at 40+ years old was too fine! Love a good older gentleman story! I will say the Jeong Mu and dad were kind of disappointing villains since we never really saw them in action or do anything damaging. And I feel sad that Seojin saw what he saw both it was the karma Yeojin deserved for planning to hurt that boy anyway to get his revenge. I hope Seojin finds peace in his dad's decisions and lives happily with his mom and friends.
