Reverse Approach [反向靠近]

by 一朵小葱花

He was treated harshly by his environment, and no one was ever nice to him. But as long as there was such a person, a corner of the curtain would be opened for the person in the cage. Then, a person like him would also find the light. This was an animal’s instinct, a desire to survive.

Su Beimo was a beam of light, opening the door of the ‘prison’.

It was him who saved Liao Nanqing, who had been living with an inferiority complex.

Review for Stars Run to Him

A very sweet, but heartbreaking love story. There were many times where I teared- most was learning about how the “future” would’ve turned out if they hadn’t gone back, and other times reading the backstories of most of the characters lol. I started reading this expecting a cute, slice of life slowburn, but like all time travel/rebirth stories it ended in tears- but don’t worry, there is a happy ending!! + The friendship between the characters is cute, just as cute as all the romantic relationships. Theres only 1 character that had a BE, and you’ll probably grow fond of because we learn a but about him.

A simple encounter turned in to a lifetime love story. Their bond is really heartwarming and admirable.
The focus is more on Ling Nanqing’s personal journey to healing, in much part with the help of Su Beimo.
They naturally connect with one another and become closer over time, and are open and honest in their feelings for one another.
We alternate often between their perspectives, so much so that I would say they both are the main character of this story.
If you love fluff, there is no end to it here. If you seek angst, you’ve also found it here.

Idk... I feel like the writing was not on par with the heaviness of the topics it dealt with. I really did not like it. The topics are not something I can skim over or accept easily to be treated this way. It fell short for me.

The translation is good though.

Rating: 4/5 - Good short story with angst and romance. The abuse and bullying was definitely hard to read but it’s a valid topic to address.

I liked that professional help was used in this story. Although a lot of the pivotal abuse was glazed over and written in a confusing matter.

I did think that many of the plot points around sexual abuse, child abuse, violence and family dynamics were well written overall.

The book leaves a rather bland aftertaste in your mouth by the end though. In a way as if the author ended things rather abruptly.

Still enjoyed reading this. It is a difficult read for sensitive readers though so keep that in mind before trying this.
