Status Updates From Blush, tome 1

Not me buying straight romance again, thinking it was BL 😭

Thoughts after reading chapter 2:
- I was laughing out loud when she said she wanted to eat him up with no context. What’s even better is that I’ve never seen a guy say “You’re so weird.” in such a romantic way. They are truly suited for each other.
- This manga is TOO MUCH!! It’s all “I got wet because of you” after jumping in the pool and now he’s holding her foot to paint her nails!

Thoughts after reading chapter 1:
- I think this might be the only time I’ve read a manga that’s ridiculously over the top in its romance and yet it actually feels genuine and is totally adorable.
- We need to ban the use of the word “stan”. This reminds me of 2018 when everyone was saying it but then it died down thankfully. It makes this manga feel a bit dated. But it’s probably just a translation issue.

So far the ML who's "too shy around girls" has lifted the FL up over his shoulder and carried her out of the classroom, pinned her down on his bed with her hands above her head, whispered 'there, there' in her ear, put his lips on her forehead to check if she had a fever (???????) and blindfolded her with his school uniform necktie so she could nap in a sunny area. Riiiight 👀
