    It's been a long time since I recommended a book, but this one is absolutely amazing! I found it yesterday and read it from morning till night, leaving a review all day (please don't do this to me [crying]). I hope the author will secretly release more chapters! The female lead is stunningly beautiful, her family is wonderful, and her younger sister is just having a falling out with her, but they'll make up later (she's a sister-complex character). The male lead is an absolute gem, but the supporting female and male characters will be quite a handful (if you mind, please don't read).
