8.7/10 Pretty time period art, a compelling plot and characters who harbor lots of guilt and regrets and are trying to move towards living their life happily, and not being tied down by duty/obligations/revenge. Good chemistry for main couple (although a tad bit fast) and side couple! Would read again (eventually a feel-good ending but mostly angsty)
9.5/10 Very calming art, has a very nostalgic, emotional, thoughtful and wistful feel as MC navigates through the life-turning point of her 30s (career vs love, dating vs dating for marriage, relationship problems, etc) and grows/learns about herself and what she wants in life and whether to take risks or play it safe. Would read again!
4/10 FL has some cool girlboss and funny moments, but classic shitty CEO acts petty and disregards the FL's feelings and humiliates her. However he actually gets character development and becomes a better person but like in the end the FL sabotages/bankrupts his company and he's totally fine with it???? Don't reread.
6/10 Beautiful nostalgic comfy art, friends to lovers slowburn but i don't like the fl? All she does is hit ml and is a tsundere and it's not endearing and becomes irritating. Love rivals are shallow but realistic (them loving the idea of the main leads, but not really knowing them) and fl is emotionally constipated and never shows love or affection? Story meanders a lot, daily life, family issues, issues talking to classmates, etc
