idk shavonne, if you didn’t want to date a serial killer, you probably shouldn’t have asked him out

Shavonne is in a toxic relationship with a serial killer…and I’m addicted! What his friend turned out to be manipulating him treating him like some patient and paying people to be in a relationship with Shavonne so he could monitor him?! Now I’m super suspicious of this editor that’s came about! Need the next book now!

I'm interested in the story, but this volume was a little boring. I don't know if I'll continue with the series.

[Ciel Dahlberg · Rating 5 out of 5]

I liked this volume even more than the first. the thoughts and metaphors became more clear and profound here. I like the subterfuge and confusion.

[Lyss · Rating 4 out of 5]

For someone who claims he doesn’t want to date a serial killer, Shavonne sure is dating that serial killer.

Lewellyn my unhinged beloved, I understand why Shavonne finally cracked

I was feeling unsure about getting into this series as I found the first volume to be boring and at times annoying. I am so glad that I gave myself another volume because volume 2 was fantastic. This is clearly not a healthy love story and that is ok. It’s obvious that Lewellyn is not mentally well right off the bat but in this volume it really got into his mentally unwell Shavonne is too. Does he even actually like Lewellyn or is it just extreme loneliness that has him thinking he does? It is also so sad that Fawkes is not really Shavonnes friend but actually just hanging around him to keep track of his mental health. I am very excited to find out more of the mysteries in this series and to see if these two men actually have something real or if it’s just a toxic storm waiting to rain down. Also on a totally unrelated note to the review I am curious to why this book is more than other manwha by Ize press. I thought I was going crazy when I saw the price.

Lewellyn must be protected at all times

This review is for S2 - end of the webtoon.

Wow, this absolutely destroyed me. The plot was meaty but the character arc for Shavonne and Lewellyn blew me away. At the end of S1, we found out what happened 8 years ago in Lute Penitentiary between Shavonne and Lewellyn from Lewellyn’s perspective. That itself was heartbreaking enough, but in S2 we got it from Shavonne‘s perspective and my god, it was an emotional ride, and when they made a reference to the novel “The Steadfast Tin Soldier” and drew parallels to them being the soldier with one leg and the ballerina, it made me want to weep. I really appreciate the author retelling their shared past from each character’s perspective because it really did explain so much and made the puzzle pieces fall into place. Either of them could be the soldier or the ballerina, they both were different from the crowd and so they could understand each other. And from this understanding, they found comfort in each other.

I really liked the development of their relationship over the course of the story. At first there was this awkwardness and suspense because we all thought that Lewellyn was this weirdo who had untoward intentions towards Shavonne. But as they spent more time together, they began to understand each other and became more reliant on each other. For Lewellyn, Shavonne was the one and only person who had shown him what it meant to be a person, and for Shavonne, Lewellyn was the one and only person who had loved him, and they became each other’s saviour, reason to live on and entire world. It explained so much about Lewellyn’s initial actions and I loved how the art changed as the plot progressed, showing Lewellyn as this anxious person who had finally found the guy he loved, instead of his initial impression of being a suave and confident guy.

The author did a really good job with navigating the nuances of their relationship. It’s definitely not your typical love story and for both characters, being in love with each other was a novel experience that scared them, but we as readers were able to understand their motives, fears and inner thoughts. The plot was also concluded nicely, with all loose ends tied up, and I was so happy that Shavonne and Lewellyn were able to live out the rest of their lives together happily. After everything they had gone through, they deserved this peace, the chance to be a normal couple.

I thought that love was something that makes the world seem beautiful just because you're in love. I didn't know that this kind of love existed. A love that made me feel as though i was bleeding. My flesh torn asunder, my bones broken to bits. A love that made the world a source of pain

Never have i read ANYTHING in my life with such yearning and deep devotion between BOTH characters. The pain was well worth it for everything(even tho we only got one chapter of happiness AT LEAST WE GOT HAPPINESS) God knows what headspace the author was in when they wrote this cuz omfg. This was a fucking masterpiece and now there is a hallow weight in my chest that will probably never be filled. Lewellyn Leader of men Shavonne Grace of God
The art was still scrumptious, the amount of screenshots i have of Lewellyn can send me to jail for obsession heh.
I need 14 business days to recover from this and cry into my pillow knowing i'll probably never find love like this that transcends every thing, even the universe!
"I want to be like Shavonne"
If Lewellyn dies, then Shavonne dies with him
And Delight cries her eyes out<3333

In this cold cruel world. Maybe "better" is just another world for "happy"

Read the digital version hence volume 1=season 1 digital version FOR ME, and volume 2=season 2 digital version. The synopsis have what chapter they are from for the digital version but im too lazy to check allat and fable only has volume 1-3 so yikes

Wow, dieses Band 2 hat mir wieder gut gefallen 😊 Die Story dreht sich um einen Serienkiller und seinen ungewollten “Nachbarn”, aber das eigentliche Highlight ist die Dynamik zwischen Shavonne und Lewellyn. Keine klischeehafte Romanze, kein vorhersehbares Drama – stattdessen zwei gebrochene Seelen, die auf eine seltsame, fast unheimliche Art zueinanderfinden.

Shavonne, der von seiner Vergangenheit gezeichnet ist, versucht irgendwie, Normalität in sein Leben zu bringen. Und dann ist da Lewellyn, dieser unberechenbare Nachbar, der gleichzeitig gefährlich und faszinierend ist. Es ist ein ständiges Hin und Her zwischen Faszination und Angst, Nähe und Misstrauen – und genau das macht das Ganze so spannend.

Ich freue mich auf Band 3 😊

[Sandra · Rating 4 out of 5]

Die Story wird ein wenig wirr, wenn ich ehrlich bin, aber ich find immer noch Llewelyn geil und auch wie die beiden zueinander finden :D wenn auch etwas sehr gerusht plötzlich.
Das Shavonne sich auf eine Beziehung zu einem Mörder, Stalker und Psychopathen einlässt, kann ich in dem Band sogar nachvollziehen. Er ist einsam, jeder verarscht ihn, er ist bodenlos pleite, keine Freunde, keine Wohnung, so .... yeah :D bevor man auf der Straße krepiert, dann anbandeln mit ihm, i guess.
Ich bin trotzdem gespannt, wo die Reise hingeht - irgendwie bezweifle ich, dass die Story n Happy End hat, aber ich lass mich überraschen.

[Rachael ༊·˚ · Rating 5 out of 5]

Alright, I’m definitely seated now. I swear each chapter feels better than the last. And the suspense in all of them? It’s killing me (hopefully not literally ;-;).

Well… riding this out also because I know it’s a happy ending, and Lewellyn somehow never becomes a red flag, and I don’t think I would like my heart to take it if it wasn’t the case. But yeah, I just hope/wish they still have some sweet moments, even amidst the plot being, well, plot. That, and we find out soon what the deal is with Shavonne’s friend(? forgot his name, my bad), and Lewellyn’s past encounter with Shavonne too.

[Cassandra · Rating 5 out of 5]

I am not sure where this story is going but it is just my kind of crazy right now. Wondering if he should break his legs so he can't leave him? Chef's Kiss.

But I am so interested, our serial killer doesn't hid who he is but he is eager to be loved by our writer. But also crazy. Both are crazy, he knows he is a killer and is like as long as you don't do it again, lets be together?? I am here and not going anywhere.

Yo a Lewellyn lo voy a defender hasta el día que me muera. Si mata a alguien diré "bueno, algo habrá hecho" y me van a cancelar.

The second season, things really start coming together. The onions get explained, and we get some good flashbacks.
