    I was often amused by the author's writing style while reading; the unintentional humor really resonated with me. The plot is fast-paced, with a small climax in each chapter, making it impossible to stop reading. The romance between the male and female leads is sweet and subtle, and the occasional touching moments are also very well done. The ending is happy, I love it so much.
