Tine is a very handsome student and cheerleader in college, while Sarawat is one of the campus’ most popular guys and is also in the soccer and music club. When Tine is chased by Green, who he does not reciprocate feelings for — he ends up begging Sarawat to fake date with him in order to chase Green away. Somehow, just like the tale as old as time goes — pretend somehow starts to turn into reality. However, before a "happily ever after" there is the process of falling in love, and the slow realisation that somehow they aren't pretending anymore. Somehow, they do not want to.
Where do I start? So, actually this is my first time to read the English translation from Thai book. To be very honest, I didn't know whether I got a very bad format or not, but the layout of the books is so frustrating.
Sometimes, I really confused whose talking in every dialogue. I mean, JittiRain likes to make a whole dialogue without any info who is talking. It made me rolled my eyes instantly.
Then, if I have to compare the story with the series, I absolutely prefer the series more. I know that 2gether the series is a very dramatic, but it's more enjoyable. In the book, Sarawat's character felt so plain and annoying. I couldn't sense his admiration and love towards Tine. Meanwhile, on the series, Bright Vachirawit as Sarawat succeed to portray Sarawat in more lively way.
My opinion for Tine is also the same. The director and the scriptwriter for the series has done a great job to make the adaptation.
In the book, the story mainly only tell about Sarawat-Tine relationship. There's no story for other couple like Type-Man and Phukong-Mil. I understand why in the series they decided ti develop the other couple's story. I believe, if it's only focused on Sarawat-Tine, the story will become stagnan and flat. Yeah, now I know why they decided to make the stories become bigger and more lively.
Tbh, when I tried to rewatch the series, Type-Man couple has their own charm and it looks wholesome a lot.
