Bury Me in Campus Romance! Youth Means Midsummer, Cicadas, Tree Shadows, and Hallways...
Looking for books similar to Toward Midsummer.
Begging for Angst-Ridden Romance
I've read too many sweet stories, and now they're starting to make me feel sick. I want an angsty story that's both sweet and heartbreaking, but not cloyingly sweet or relentlessly tragic. The leads should have reasons for both their sweet moments and their painful ones. I don't want angst for angst's sake or sweetness for sweetness's sake.

It's a super good show! The male lead's brothers, Pineapple Head and Shorty, are very loyal. I think the male lead is a loyal, intelligent, brave, and gentle person. He notices small details around him and is very attentive to the female lead's actions. I feel sorry for him; he has a strong belief despite his father's domestic violence against him and his mother since childhood.
Having read novels for so many years, this one is truly exceptionally well-written! The male and female leads are both excellent, absolutely perfect. I just wish the author would update soon; there's simply not enough! 😢😢😢😢😢😢
August 14, 2025 Perfect confetti! 🌸 I couldn't find a novel to read all day, but I stumbled upon this one. Although it was a bit angsty and sad in the middle, and I cried a few tissues, thankfully it had a happy ending. After going through all sorts of hardships, we still made a firm choice to be together. I hope that we can all live peaceful and smooth lives in parallel worlds!
Cheng Chuan and Jian Xiaoli are truly adorable. They're sharp-tongued yet silently devoted. If his love for her were something to be proud of, he would use a lifetime of happiness to make up for their seven-year separation. Love is everywhere, but being loved is a luxury! I never reject stories of mutual redemption. The side couple was also so heartbreaking; thankfully, they got together.
The female lead is really great; all she wants is for Cheng Chuan to be happy. The plot is also excellent. I highly recommend her!
It's not overly angsty, but it's still incredibly heart-wrenching. The female lead has a broken family—a deceased mother, a father burdened with debt—and is both strong and vulnerable. There are family feuds, conflicts stemming from her family background, her dysfunctional family, and even her childhood sweetheart's betrayal. It's truly a fragmented story, which is the kind of story I like.
I don't even want to say anything more. This is truly about mutual redemption, it's so good, the plot is tight and not padded out, the characters are very well-developed, it's just super super super good! 🥰🥰🥰🥰 @Do you know? I used to be a bright and cheerful girl, but ever since I read your writing, I've become like a rat in a gutter, searching for candy in your broken glass every day, but I can't find any after searching for ages, sob sob XX, I want candy 🍬
🌱Cheng Chuan & Jian Li They are childhood sweethearts, a long-awaited reunion, mutual redemption, and a journey from school to wedding! She left him twice. The first time, he hated her. The second time, he silently let go. He kept his promises. The suffering they endured was worth all the hardships. Love is pure, but reality is cruel. Studying is the best way out. They met at the top! "
This book is truly wonderful, so incredibly good! The heart-wrenching parts are so well-written; I cried so many times while reading it. Thankfully, the ending is perfect. The author's writing is absolutely superb!!! Neither the male nor female protagonist comes from happy or fulfilling families, and facing such circumstances is incredibly difficult.
It's so good! Author, please update soon!!!
