This was such a lovely story. It wasn’t all rainbows and roses and yet I enjoyed it very much. Chobkhun was such a genuine and kind character. He handled the disaster his relationship with his ex and friendship with his former best friend turned into with more grace I could have ever imagined doing in his place. That he kept his sunny personality through it all was no small feat.
Intouch was the silent, competent and honest stranger at first and I loved to see their relationship grow. In a way this gave me all the “Duang With You” feels but in a more mature version. It was quite cheesy at times and the obstacles were mostly piled up in the first book, and yet I wholeheartedly enjoyed this read.
Honestly, I loved their family, friends (well most of them) and their cute pets. Kati and Fancy were such cute beans. Also, all their creative posts, videos and travel vlogs were described so vividly.
The translation was once again wonky. It got some tidbits of footnotes or explanations but I’m unsure if it was solely done without a machine. You know when pronouns, names are written in different ways, and third person verbs are often wrong, but the flow of the words and sentences are correct I don’t know what to think. Compared to the funny way Grok translates Thai posts it’s different. Maybe the translator is just not that good with English?
All in all it’s not that important because I thoroughly had a good time with this book. It’s one I’d definitely buy if it will ever get an official translation. These characters will be portrayed so well by Firstone (Wannakorn Reungrat) and Tle (Matimun Sreeboonrueang). If you have seen them before interact in RL or act in Khemjira or in their music videos and then read the book like I did: Let me tell you they are such a good fit for these characters.
The trailer is coming out next week. Hehe.
P.S.: I totally need to get my hands on P’Kim and N’Rak’s story by Afternoonmood in English too.
I cried rivers on how soft they are, Inkhun's love is like a calm after a storm, the gentle touch of wind that makes you fell asleep, the feeling of going home after a fulfilling trip. Everything gentle and peace describe the love they have.
The whole story was pure fluff and love that every chapter I read every word with a determination to keep it in my mind because how they show and made each other feel cared for and loved reminds me that a love like that can exist. Not to mention the special chapters which are softer!! I swear they're goals; going to different countries and trips, building a love nest, supporting each other's goals, understanding each other... they have it.
I'm so happy that I read this book. Everything I want is here.
P.S I read this because of TleFirstone and so... somehow they are what I imagine InKhun would be, and!! I was so shocked that during the first few chapters Intouch is the most gentle bean ever but later on... he have his wild side and nevertheless it's so addicting LMAO I'm so excited for the live adaptation!
If you like something lighthearted, sweet, and fluffy without much going on then this is exactly the book you need.
There are conflicts, but things resolved pretty quickly. Both MC and ML are mature, not just in age but also mentally. They both communicate with each others clearly that it doesn't allow conflict to grow bigger than it actually is.
Nice read to feel fluffiness. Can't wait for the drama!
