WHAT CAN I SAY? WELL, I 100% AGREE WITH ZUREL! THIS STORY ALSO MAKES ME ANXIOUS, SO MUCH ANXIOUS, BUT ITS A GOOD KIND OF ANXIOUS.
Ok, Really, this is one of my all time fav story's. The characters? Realistic, beautiful and so complex. I love everyone, they aren't bad or good, they are gray, they have nuances and reasons, and you understand why they acted that way, or took the decisions they did. I also love how much one of the characters makes people so indecisive, some hate him, some love him and others, like me, do both.
Dowun is so complex and, I don't really know how to explain, but he makes me feel vulnerable? And for me he is the best thing in this story, his development, the way he thinks and acts, its so intelligent. His reasons are understandable, even the moral" bad" ones, and I just cant seem to view him as a villain neither an antagonist. He's manipulative and knows the game he's playing, but he also never really lied about his actions, he's just being a fucking good player. But of course, his methods and actions are not what FL really wanted, and we see her reflect on that, which makes everything so realistic and bittersweet.
FL is really a powerful female lead, she's so nuanced, and complex too, she's the embodiment of "be careful what you wish for" Or the writer advice "wants vs need." Her journey is truly beautiful
The artsyle and direction is also such a treat! CHEF K I S S I CAN'T SEE A FLAW. In the end This story's makes me feel so many things, truly, truly an anxious but beautiful, bittersweet read.
