The story started alright, but the ending was kind of bad. Not even because of the twist ending or anything, just out of character for the protagonist. It just seemed like a forced dead dove ending when nothing in the story was leading to it (outside of Rose's affairs, obviously). I really don't have much to critique on this one, like most of their works, its just smut and beautiful art. The story could have been a lot better. Sadly, I do think Bad Thinking Diary might have been the author's one hit wonder, because the stories they have been putting out since then have been kind of poor.

A story revolving around two very mentally unstable people who thought ignoring their troubles and finding relief in one another was the best idea... I'm not as disappointed with the ending as I thought I would be. The middle of the story kinda got wild, too. Doyoung frustrated the absolute hell out of me, her character change toward the middle was ridiculous. The fact that she got jealous and mad at Jin Joo for not leaving her husband for her was crazy. Jin Joo was 100% justifiable in this, I will argue this until I die. She's a middle aged married woman in debt with no job or life experience and the fact that Doyoung thought she would leave her life in the hands of a fresh college student was idiotic on her part. In my respectful opinion, Jin Joo shouldn't have had to put up with her husband or Doyoung. Jin Joo was too hurt and too vulnerable to have been exposed to someone who was suppose to be helping her then turned to look for sex. I was glad to see Doyoungs character development, but the I would have personally preferred a different ending. Jin Joo and Doyoung met under bad circumstances and developed a very unhealthy codependency on one another, I do like that it got addressed towards the end, but I think an ending where they just stayed friends would have been so much better. All in all, it was a good read. Not boring at all and enough drama to keep you hooked.

Umm... don't really have much to say about this one. I didn't like how the MC looked like a man, in every aspect until she took her shirt off. Not to say that I dislike masc women, but I felt like she was too heavy influenced by male design. Story is kind of... not good lol. There was really no plot, you're kind of just thrown into an already developed story that seemed 2 chapters in on the first page with no info or introduction. I don't know, maybe I'm reaching, but the MC was bland. Like, if you're going to commit to an awkward, anxious, antisocial, socially inept character that the readers are suppose to like as the MC, maybe give us more than her name and the fact that she has a foot fetish. She seemed very "background character" to me, if that makes any sense. It was super hard to feel anything for her other than grossed out by her. She had no character at all. I get that, being a one-shot, pacing for characters is sort of hard, but I feel like if it's unable to be pulled off within your page limit, maybe don't make the character that weird. It was very off-putting to read through. I believe this could have been better with more time and even 3 more chapters, but for a single chapter, I felt nothing but embarrassment while reading this.
