Steady updates, and pretty surreal content. Gender-bending, love at first sight (a lot of it), a challenge to resist falling in love, and the men aren't necessarily virgins. A girl who had never been loved made a desperate wish: to be loved by someone forever. Her powerful obsession drew an unknown being into this world, though it should never have existed here. A gaze as pure as a god's, yet terrifying, follows you. That unknown being is li 1.6kReads—Score100Shelves

With multiple male leads, the heroine comes off as rather fickle. She has no unrequited-love storyline. The writing is awkwardly self-indulgent, with an over-the-top, artsy style and a stream-of-consciousness plot. No male or female lead or supporting character who appears in the story is vilified.
