Unfinished Business
This is fucked up, but it depicts obsession and toxicity so well. This is not for everyone, so proceed with caution. The suspension and all the secrets, that slowly get brought to light, made this even better. To me, this is not romantic at all, and I won't view it as such. But it is a good psychological yaoi where the plot gets wrapped up nicely.
Countdown to Love
A very cute story about young love. It has a small element of misunderstanding, but it was done surprisingly well. I loved how we see the relationships develop, and I wanted it to be longer. Really cute.
The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn't a Guy At All
This is such a good story about young love and the development of feelings. The dynamics are so cute and entertaining to read, and the importance of music makes this ten times better. This is a slowburn where everything is worth the wait. That first kiss is everything to me.
The Deepest Confession
Relatively quick read that focuses on unrequited love (but not really). Two people meet again after falling out/going no-contact, and the readers get to see how they navigate their feelings--both good and bad. In the end, they manage to actually communicate and get their happy ending. A lot of alcohol was involved.
Immediate Disadvantage
This is an odd one. I didn't really know what to expected, but it certainly wasn't the raging daddy issues. Honestly, this is more sad than anything else. A people pleaser not knowing how to say no, and a young adult with no strong parental figure, taking advantage of that. I dropped rather quickly.
Shutline
As such an interesting story with complex characters and relationships. The plot remains interesting and detailed, and the element of suspense keeps the readers on their toes. I love dynamics between all the characters, and the pacing and progression of the plot is great. Would recommend!
Waterside Night
This story is heartbreaking. There are so many awful things and aspects to this story. The characters are extremely complex, filled with flaws and room for improvement, but everything is beautifully written. The story deals with trauma and the rebuilding of relationships so well. It was heartbreaking, but so worth it.
The Most Ordinary Relationship
Two people who have been together for ten years struggle to navigate their relationship, and to find the love that once brought them together. It shows the good and the bad about dating, and it is done in such a nice way. They have my heart.
Payback
This story has a very good understanding of guilt, atonement and finding purpose in life. The plot was interesting and the overall development of the story was good. I will say that it felt a little rushed towards the end.
