   Reader note

   My bookshelf is full of campus romance novels. The unfinished realities of youth find solace in Tomato's stories. Novels 1, 3, and 12-14 depict a natural progression from high school to adulthood, without misunderstandings, separations, or reconciliations—no bittersweet moments. Novels 1, 13, and 14 feature the male lead pursuing the female lead; novel 3 shows mutual feelings followed by confessions; and novel 12 depicts mutual unrequited love. Novels 12 and 13 include a university component. In novels 1, 13, and 14, the female lead transfers to the male lead's school due to family circumstances, and the male lead warms her heart despite her lack of family affection. Novels 2, 4, 7, 10, and 16 are about long-awaited reunions and reconciliations, with some bittersweet moments and a touch of angst. No. 7 Is purely about university classmates; the female lead, due to her own reasons and coercion from the male lead's aunt, is forced to break up with him, only to reunite after starting work, resolve misunderstandings, and reconcile. The rest follow a high school to university to work life: meeting in high school, reuniting in university, falling in love, breaking up, and reconciling after starting work. Ten of these stories involve a male protagonist secretly in love with a female protagonist. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the male protagonist cruelly breaks up with her to avoid burdening her (no misunderstandings). Three other stories involve a female protagonist secretly in love with a male protagonist. The female protagonist leaves him out of disappointment (there are misunderstandings and conflicts), and later the male protagonist experiences a dramatic "chasing after her" scenario. Stories 5 and 6 depict mutual feelings developed in high school, but due to uncontrollable external factors, they are forced to separate and lose contact. They later reunite after a long separation. The separation is bittersweet, the reunion sweet. The former involves a chance reunion after starting work, while the latter involves a promise to attend the same university and reunite there. Stories 8, 9, 11, and 15 involve the female protagonist's early unrequited love, with the male protagonist gradually realizing his own feelings or slowly falling in love with her, and the two getting together smoothly. The unrequited love parts are bittersweet but not angsty. Story 9 involves the female protagonist's high school unrequited love, with the male protagonist taking the initiative to contact her and confess his feelings after starting work. The rest are set in university, interspersed with the female protagonist's high school memories of her unrequited love and her inner thoughts.

    A rare, non-melodramatic novel from Tomato. Super sweet, both leads are virgins, both secretly in love, no complicated relationships, no melodrama, no mutual flattery. Both have independent personalities, respect each other, encourage each other, and grow together. Of course, the female lead has her own little tsundere moments and occasional pranks, but she's never a saint when she's wrong. The male lead also has his own little devil; he's decisive and ruthless towards those who want to hurt him. Highly recommended. You won't regret reading it.
