A TREASURE ❤
August 29, 2024
Comenzaré diciendo hechos: ustedes jamás amaran a alguien como He Pingyi ama a Jing Can y ustedes jamás serán amados como Jing Can ama a He Pingyi. VIVAN CON ESO.
ABYO es una historia curativa y hermosa que sigue los pasos de dos adolescentes que contra todo pronóstico, quieren estar juntos hasta el final. Está novela me dejó vacía, sin fuerzas y con ganas de desistir de esta vida que jamás me dará un amor tan puro y hermoso como el que tienen He Pingyi y Jing Can. La trama no es dramática, no se asusten, pero me hizo angustiarme al descubrir la verdad sobre Jing Can y emocionarme mucho por lo perfecto que es He Pingyi.
Es una historia cortita pero profunda, que fue capaz de desarrollar muy bien a sus personajes y sentimientos, representar sus dudas y miedos, y trasmitir la incertidumbre sobre el futuro. Y sobre esto, me alegra que la trama no se haya enfocado en el problema en sí de Jing Can, porque no era de eso que trataba la novela y sí, sobre el cuidado y determinación que He Pingyi y Jing Can tenían por su relación. Era sobre su amor, compañerismo y devoción mutua. Era sobre ellos justos por la eternidad.

This book destroyed me emotionally 😭!! I don't think I'll ever be ready to review this story. I just want to warn future readers: If you are sensitive to topics related to mental health, suicide, death of loved ones and such, stay away from this!!
It has a happy ending, and most of the book is about healing, but it was still a hard blow when some truths began showing up. I cried and felt horrible for both of them, so young and already struggling with the hardest part of life. Also their relationship was everything 🥹✨. If you enjoy the hurt/comfort vibes this is a great choice.

I really love this author.
There are some aspects of the story that might have been lost in translation... hopefully some of this author's work will get licensed or someone else picks it up.
I really like how the emotional atmosphere is described and how the characters develop throughout the book. Can't say more without spoiling. >.< But the imagery is quite melancholic and it hits just right~

English name: A Brilliance Yet Obtained
I absolutely loved An Accident in Broad Daylight, so when I realized that this story was by the same author, I knew I had to give it a shot. While I'm glad I read it, I can only say that I enjoyed it but didn't love it, hence my 3 star rating.
The story follows two high school students: He Pingyi and Jing Can. They meet in their 3rd year of high school and slowly open up to each other and help each other through their struggles. It's a beautiful story and it's written very well, but I'm not a fan of stories with instant love and I feel like that's what happened here, at least for He Pingyi. It takes him a while to realize his feelings, but that's essentially what it is.
There are some sensitive topics covered in the story that shape the characters to who they are today. For example, I knew there had to be a reason why Jing Can randomly decided to attend high school in Huihe away from his family in Beijing, but the reveal was quite unexpected and made me really feel bad for him and the upbringing that he had where he felt like he always had to hide everything from his family. At least his family came around and became more supportive by the end, especially his dad.
I do appreciate how the author eventually brings the story full circle, and some things that are only hinted at earlier are fully explained by the end.

Ay no, mis niños se aman tantoooo !! 🤧
He Pingyi es mi pookie, el más devoto, el último romántico, el lugar seguro de Jing Can, unproblematic king, EL MEJOR NOVIO DEL MUNDO
Jing Can es mi sad boy, gentil e inocente, adorable, resiliente a pesar de sus circunstancias, genio incomprendido, la otra mitad de He Pingyi
El sabor más amargo de esta historia es saber que muchos de nosotros nunca vamos a encontrar a nuestro He Pingyi T_T

It’s been two months, and I’m still thinking about this novel. A Brilliance, Yet Obtained completely captivated me, every aspect was beautifully done and it absolutely deserves more recognition. Both main characters were distinct, complex, and incredibly well written. Compared to other high school danmei I've read, this one was far more emotionally intense. It went beyond a typical coming-of-age story and offered a raw, thoughtful exploration of mental illness. The writing was powerful and it genuinely made me cry.
