if you only read one OI in your entire life, let it be this one. go in blind. PEAK
perfection... the way it examines the personal histories of each character and how those traumas drive their present-day behaviour and how they engage with each other relationally... genuinely like nothing else in the genre, extremely emotionally intelligent writing. best slow burn and obsessive ML of all time
beautiful romantasy about devotional love. ends perfectly and doesn't drag for a second too long
strongly written FL who never strays from what she believes is right. you cannot help but love her in the end.
i also love the emotional cat and mouse game between her and the ML, and how the ML comes to love and trust her true intentions despite her never letting up an inch.
i've read this once in the past and didn't fully get into it, so just note that this one takes a little bit to click into place
earnest & sweet love story with an admirable MC
such a satisfying read that wraps itself up perfectly. the best, quickest evening pick-me-up read of all time
stunning time reversal romantasy with a gorgeous twist. the main character and her ML have such an earnest, beautiful dynamic
excellent horror romantasy!
holy peak. starts to mildly become suffering porn near the end stretch but beautiful, tragic premise
if you love Pain and a real good redemption arc for the ML, this one is for you. it doesn't happen a second too fast, either.
honestly, ML's obsession isn't super believable, but i don't want to spoil too much!
