What makes this so uncomfortable is because the relationship dynamic is so toxic in a sence that there's so much manipulation and gaslighting as well and forced interactions in it.
I'm not saying nobody should read this, but let's not deny it is a really toxic relationship that they have. Though the manipulation and gaslighting is unrealized by the characters and is done so in an un international way because they do both struggle.
But the power dynamics is what really takes the toxicity on a higher level. Because they're both uneven in life span, love, information, and experience. They're not seeing on equal eye where the ml is often forced to just accept and is not given much autonomy, in a way it feels as if its a horror story for ml's perspective.
The story is complicated and nuanced, so let's speak of it in a way that is nuanced and not just defend or offend. The story is beautiful and very impactful in a way it's set, and in that very same way it's very daring to the boundaries of many.
The reason why it feel so incessant is because of the power devide between the two characters. The ml is innocent in a way that he doesn't know anything to be unusual because he's lived his whole life thinking his uncle is just a very thoughtful uncle. Only for later for that same uncle to seek romantic relationship. Lets not deny that the relationship IS in a way mirroring incest.
The story is good and thought provoking. The plots has many to give. It's very emotionally charged which is a breeding ground for another amazing bl that people will always remember. I think it is worth the read and the efforts of trying to understand the dynamics. When you read it it's as provoking as reading jinx.
It's not for everyone but IT DEFINITELY is amazing.
