So cute. I love how who you become with time is emphasised here. 

So painfully sweet. Almost gave me diabetes. I want me a man like Duan Ye. This is peak youthful vibes at the start and you... more>> see them as they mature and grow up from idealistic untainted children to adults. <<less

Love their understanding; their understanding of each other and their respect for one another is built brick by brick. Painful. Enduring. Beautiful. I only wish it were longer.... more>>

The novel depicts these very traditional/cliche settings but they’re written so well that you become immersed in the novel anyway. Just read it.  <<less

I love how despite their affections for eachother, that mutual respect and understanding for eachother and themselves is built upon.

Really good. Both Mc and ML (surprising ML as well) grow and exist outside of their relationship and their feeling for eachother.

Love both the leads 

AHHH THIS ONE WAS SO GOOD... more>>

If you’re going to read any of the novels on this list let it be this one first. <<less

I wish someone picked this up T T ... more>>

It was really so cute <<less

Another fave. It was lowkey pretty introspective about being a woman in a harem in the ancient times. Loved that. They both have romantic feelings... more>> for eachother yess, but understanding, respect, even love really, comes later. <<less

This was so cute. How they motivate eachother to pursue their passions despite what the world is saying is really beautiful. Their friendship and how... more>> it matures into a relationship is also great <<less

Okay so this one is major junk food. This is greasy kfc when you’re hung over levels of junk food. But the relationship between ML and MC is also one of the best parts of this novel. They really stand for each other through everything. And the novel itself does make for an interesting read, provided you don’t take the plot at face value and look deeper a bit. Read my review of the novel if you’d like aswell. ... more>>

Yeah so while it’s a hot mess, it’s a hot mess you’ll enjoy reading. <<less

Binged this in ten days. An absolutely amazing read
