i dedicate this readthrough to my dear friends Charee, Elena, Marian, and Rebecca 💖 thank you for never letting me forget this series exists, and if things don’t go as smoothly as planned, well, my lawyer will be in contact with your people 🤣

@elena - LMAOOO I mean, I hope I love it from the get go, but at least I can take comfort in not being alone on the off chance the opposite comes true 😂
can't wait for you to fall in love with my bbs seong-jae and mal (they weren't as frustrating as hazard/somers, but still gave me similar vibes) 🥰
*CULT, I MEANT CULT 🤣 Even my phone’s hungry, thinking about gosh darn chicken cutlets at midnight smh 💀
@moonlight - I WILL DO MY BEST 🫡 I was planning on listening to the audio for the first three books that are out so far, but the narrator’s voice for Malcom is gratingly horrendous 😂
Tried to start this series since I saw it’s on audio… didn’t like the narrator so haven’t taken the plunge.. can’t wait to see what you think!!
@Liya - I’ve been dancing around this series since last year, but the steady barrage of not-so-subtle hints to start this series finally won me over 😂 Crossing all my fingers and toes it lives up to the hype!

@Kaity - I couldn’t agree with you more on the audio, why did he choose such unpleasant voices for the mcs? Malcolm sounds like he has a frog in his throat and has to compensate by going all harsh and raspy, while Seong-Jae is an emotionless robot 🤖 This is Tantor, right? What happened to our tried-and-true narrators when they were casting for this series? 😭
@Mila - Awww thank you for being my dear cutlet buddy!! 🥰💖 I will forever be reminded of you when I feast on a cutlet 🤣
@alyssa, totally! they had a pool of amazing narrators and to ruin a huge series that had double digits worth of books with a narrator that’s isn’t good is such a waste! Haha hope this go around works better for you!
OH MY GOD!!! You cannot just drop such major news on me with no warning Lissymoo, I almost happy-screamed in the middle of my workplace 🤣I'm so happy you're finally starting the epic love saga of Mal & Seong-Jae! Keep your expectations low with the mysteries, but the romance will wow you for sure 🥰
Keeping all my fingers and toes crossed that this works out for you 🤞
@Kaity - Yeahhh maybe everyone else was booked to the gills and couldn’t dedicate the time for such a long series, but at the same time, I’m surprised no one listened to an audio sample without wincing 🤔 I’ll see if I can grow accustomed to it, but reading with my eyes might be the only solution, even though I’m feeling extra lazy lately 🤣
@Rebecca - Hehe my early week surprise gift for you 😘 At least you avoided scaring off your coworkers, that’s a plus 😂 I’ll do my best tempering expectations for the cases, as GA has set them rather high, but as long as the character progression shines through, I should be okay 🤞🏼 Thanks girl! 💖
I'm still hesitant to take the plunge. It seems like a lengthy commitment. I hope you enjoy yourself and look forward to your reviews!
@Agla - I was (still am a little lol) scared to begin because it's a lengthy journey, but I made a promise to Rebecca to pick it up after I caught up on a few ARCs, and I don't go back on my promises 😉 Thank you for the encouragement, Agla! I'm praying it meets or, better yet, exceed expectations 😊
