absolutely gorgeous story. the characters are so fleshed out and the author's wording is insanely cozy. every paragraph seems to be filled with pink bubbles,... more>> it's so domestic. but there are really emotional and real moments that makes even the reader feel vulnerable, and the characters really grow together. and i love little bubu :( <<less

CHAOTIC GOOD SUCKAZ COME GET Y'ALL JUICE! a serial killer's serial killer x cop who is about to get his black and white justice worldviews... more>> shattered and reformed. the second sha qing said baby the law was never built for the people i said STAN! <<less

i cried from wholesomeness so many times. the writing is top notch, their dynamic is incredibly sweet, and even though the cp are outstanding, it's not overdone, and since this is a drama free novel with no revenge plot, it's not overbearing at all, it just makes you happy. plus the mc is extremely humble, he deserves his accolades.... more>>

mc is a beautiful soul reborn with uncanny good luck. he is hardworking, considerate, and kind. but he does have a bottom line and gets angry, his character is really 3D. the tag has doting love interest, but the protagonist is the truly doting too. he tries to overcome his driving trauma through therapy so he can be together with ml more, and he goes to therapy which i appreciate

ml... he's such a beautiful soul. he has autism and OCD, so he misses a lot of social cues and has difficulties with self care and awareness. this story is about him and mc slowly teaching him empathy and love, while not trying to "cure" him. they simply adapt the best they can.

the approach to coming out was super touching. that really hit home for me. i really love this story <<less

MC IS GREAT, a funny and righteous exorcist who is trying to expel the worlds resentment before his time on earth runs out within 4 years. compentent doctor, the occasional bashful moments with ML wasnt forced at all, he often laments about how handsome ML is to his face... more>>

ML is the "has to put up a nasty facade to rule his people but actually very kindhearted" type. they BICKER bicker and its hilarious.

the plot is actually SO good, and the worldbuilding is so lively. all the bg charas are 3D and actually serve to enhance the plot instead of the MC. <<less

mc is a cunning little cutie, his chara dev is A SIGHT TO BEHOLD spoiled young master > farmer > top tier scholar/war hero. all while also being a spoiled lover. theyre literally PEAK OLD MARRIED COUPLE... more>>

ml is so good... hes my baby... hes a looming hunk of a man who doesnt say sh*t but he's my baby... the way he slowly opens up and gets tender and happier with MC after being ens*aved for so long... UGHHH <<less

one of the best xianxia danmei i've read so far. mc is a calm, mature, and warm soul. he makes ml feel safe and loved, and tries his best to help heal his abandonment trauma.... more>>

NO INTERNALISED h*mophobia, NO HURTFUL REJECTION. MC was an open heteros*xual (he's either bis*xual or was had compulsive heterosexuality since he never really liked girls either), he himself admitted that he wasnt hellbent on being straight, and saw no problems at all if he liked ML. MC is willing to try things out and start slow because he also loves ML.

they also have a beautifully tragic (short) shared past that was marred by amnesia, but the amnesia was played very nicely, instead of hurting them, the mutual discovery only served to strengthen it. <<less

mc is a mature little cutie. warm hearted, likes to joke around and laugh, isn't over the top. given that the story is more laid... more>> back, that's probably to be expected, but it's satisfying nonetheless. extra bait: it's basically glorified food p*rn. <<less

BABI SIAL MY HEART ACHES if you like childhood friends/rivals to lovers then this is it, god's chosen one  ... more>>

mc is a beautiful soul, and does his best to treat his best friend right after being reborn post-accident, right when he found out that ML was in love with him for years.

you cant help but like ML as well, the possessive trope annoys me, but in his case, with the whole "figuring out sexuality" thing and the fact that it was hinted that he was on the spectrum, it made sense. plus it's not annoying cause he isnt a conceited OP demon lord. he's just a sensitive boy navigating loneliness.

this starts out in the late 90s / early 00s so the figuring out of sexuality and the fragility of that invisible line between friends and lovers particularly stand out. <<less

idc what anybody else says i love this one. i'm not even reading for the cp anymore, i just want to be held in mc's... more>> arms and be swaddled in a blanket under the summer stars next to a campfire and be spoon fed juicy chicken bress. he's so gentle and kind it nearly brought me to tears. this is just a calming read. the plot is fairly straightforward and simple but it's just so cute and heartwarming. made my prozac jump on jobseek <<less

f*ck SCUM GONGS. ALL MY HOMIES HATE SCUM GONGS. the MC is a kick to read, f*cking funny little bastard. and ML is... how do... more>> i say this... if i had to lavender marry a man for society it would be him. he spoils the MC so much lol. i like that the scum gongs arent redeemable or are the love interests. i've had enough of these b*tches. tender system ML >>>> <<less

LMFAO. the mc is just ruthless, this is meant to be a quick parody of overdone and overused tropes (specifically scum gong x abused shou)... more>> so it's really just a refreshing quick laugh. imagine 2 dudes who were meant to be rivals are tossed into a shitty story and they just mess it up and get hitched afterwards. <<less

do i just have a thing for cub rearing? i think i just have thing for cub rearing. it's the... inherent gentleness and nontoxic masculinity...... more>> mc is warm and kind yet NOT a pushover at all, don't you dare mistake gentleness for weakness. he's super ambitious and gets sh*t done EXPEDITIOUSLY. and the little babies... my heart itches... it really does. i'm so proud of them.  <<less

OHHH this one... she's a doozy. i usually dislike amnesia tropes but given that the mc is like, a repressed warrior always makes things fun.... more>> and the angst of the ML being drawn to the MC due to Past Circumstances that none of them quite realise... aha ha <<less

um... i did promise non embarrassing protagonists, and he isnt, given that he's a competent doctor, but if you count piss kink as humiliation play... more>> then... lol. this is really just straight up tragic smut. the P.K. is only a chapter though so if you just... close your eyes and look away... it's quite heart wrenching and h**ny. sorny if you will <<less

made me chuckle it did! a little hoot and toot! it's relatively short, but it isn't rushed or anything. mc is charismatic and not afraid... more>> to talk sh*t to his husband lol. it's an arranged marriage but it literally starts with the mc nearly choking the ml to death cuz the ml woke up from his coma like MINUTES before their marriage contract was able to be cancelled due to nonactivity.  <<less

the mc is super likeable, a warm and calming half tree demon who is actually really vengeful lol. he beat up the people who would... more>> talk sh*t about his mom as a kid, and wants to open a flower shop in front of his grandfather's (who hates him bc hes illegitimate) huge office building so he's forced to look at him every day lmao. but he's super gentle to his plant babies and his dog.  <<less

the mc is super calm and not annoying at all, hes quick on his feet and analytical. i super hate the screaming old woman trope but (spoilers below)... more>>

the mc and ml's constant and incessant winning kinda gets tired but the mc is so warm and gentle and kind that it doesn't make... more>> me want to spit blood, as opposed to the super c*cky mcs that blast their way through everything or have Misty Peach Blossom Eyes No Jutsu shoved up my ass every other paragraph. plus, the plot is really fresh and engaging. i usually don't like episodics, but this one is really nice. and the ml is a gentle giant, what more could you ask for? <<less

first of all, you know priest invented the romance subplot. it's really more a book for plot seekers. but what we're given... it's good as... more>> hell. plus i really love the s*me protag trope, i kind of have a grudge against danmeis being mostly from the 0's perspective but we don't have time to unpack ALL of that. the mc can stand on his own, meaning that the side characters and the antagonists arent there to pretty him up. he isn't overbearing nor annoying, and the PROSE... yummy in my tummy! <<less

the ml is so endearing in the "im an ancient being trying to learn about society so by default im attached to you since youre... more>> the one teaching me about love" way. and the mc is also so endearing in the "i'll do whatever i can to make your life beautiful and warm even though i dont really realise it" way <<less

what a cute little couple... mc is really caring and driven, and cares about the ml a lot (and vice versa). their relationship development was... more>> really sweet and natural, and the adventures that they go through are really vivid and interesting. the roommate bros are actually likeable and funny, and that birthday scene really made my heart warm. if u kno u kno. go take a gander <<less

i actually laughed out loud ghrjkg. mc is super ambitious and dry and sarcastic but when he's soft he's SOFT. also the ml is so... more>> funny... the gap moe is strong. the premise is hell/reincarnation having to keep up with technology and hired a human programmer. the company is broke cuz the demon king is addicted to mmorpgs and keeps squandering their money lmfao <<less
