@Ch 38

sighs and looks at the reading challenge, because I'm losing it for the first time in years.

Listen it's not that strictly speaking I'm not reading. I'm reading plenty. It's just that webnovels and webtoons are not recognized by goodreads for some ungoldy reason. (I suspect it's capitalism-related).

Okay but seriously HOW SHORT are the training periods for birthmothers because these kids are TWELVE. Are they having babies at thirteen, because yikes.

@C24

FL's family is just incredibly bitchy, to soap-opera levels.

Ch 6
3.5 to 4. It's not bad at all but there isn't enough of it so far.

Ch 14
Also fun! 4 stars! Nice usage of limited magic.

Ch 18.5; Ran out of chapters
Fun enough. 3.5 st

Ch 17
Kinda meh because there is no conflict anymore. Props for rounding out the OGFL and OG ML, though- I genuinely like those kids too bad the plot doesn't work as well.

Chapter 15; Ran out of Chapters
4.5 stars it;s cute and there's no plot but it is adorable and really fucking funny

Me reading manhwa/manhua/webnovels and talking about it = Me airing out all my id issues for the world to see

C1: I'm still a little wtf about the sing or die thing, but the other stuff is mostly cute. It gets a little cliche towards the end with the protag not knowing she is beautiful and talented, though. Which is not a bad thing by itself but it's not my preferred protag type you know. At least for female protags.

@72%
My biggest spike of excitement when I read this book was seeing a woman described as having short red hair and my biggest letdown was having it re-described to me as bobbed a chapter or two (?) later.

Challenges are good for making you finish books?

This is like the fifth time the book says "Meng Yuran was not happy but his face was always like that so nobody noticed" and it's always said so matter-of-factly it is hilarious.

Lu Xun: *is smooth, mostly by accident*
Me: *surprised Pikachu face*
Me: i didn't know he had it in him

Me: Whew. I have finally added most if not all books from the Gay Fantasy Reading Slump Binge into my GR account. Now it is sorted out and I can rela-

My Brain: You also went on a webtoon/webmanga reading binge.

Me: T_T when will my procrastination stop kicking me in my metaphorical balls.

@C30
Jubel: We should date!
Max: :o That was sudden, but... It's okay? Yeah I can deal with that. //immediately starts imagining their future kids

It's cute honestly.

Me when I see a work tagged as a tragedy: Excuse me? Do I look like a pigeon? A sucker? A stooge? A Patsy? Why would I EVER deliberately read some angstfest determined to make me miserable? Life's too short for that.

Me, when I accidentally stumble into tragedies in otherwise comical and heartwarming stories: T_T T_T I am a wreck. Devastated. Emotionally compromised. Why does this hurt so bad and so good? T_T T_T

@C15
I just want to express my utter delight at Max's gift to his dad and how he described it ("he's been pretty bored lately I was glad to liven up his life a little")

C125: wow that got way more meta than I expected

@C101: If wei peilin/lord Wang isn't endgame I'll be sooooooo disappointed.
C'mon wpl make my day and join the bisexuals ranks we could always use more people.

Ch80: this second arc is still cute but it's a lot more contrived than arc 1.

@C74 the emperor is a lovestruck himbo and I for one find that deeply adorable

No I did not in fact read twenty books in one day but I've been plowing through SO many gay urban fantasy books for a month now and I was too lazy to record them so you're getting a flood of the things.

Also i like that the comic also clearly draws the lines between adult men who got abused as kids and are now hurting people people, and children who were abused and coerced into it and spent the rest of their lives trying to make up for it. Because really, those two things are not the same.

C98: the pre ass-kicking happy face on ryusakis face is the most hilarious thing I swear

@C92: the one thing I don't buy in this story is Katsu thinking of Mei as a replacement goldfish for Akane bc (a) that came out of nowhere we needed more foreshadowing and (b) they are NOTHING like each other yeesh.
