   Curator note

   "Overly Intense" connects to the aftermath of "Leaving Hong Kong," offering a glimpse into the emotional atmosphere between Lu and Xue afterward, and allowing us to see how the author presents the world beyond them. In "Overly Intense," I also witnessed the author's improved plot control and a deeper exploration of the characters' thoughts. The case plot in "Overly Intense" is tightly paced, with each element linked to the next, culminating in the revelation of the truth. The overall emotional flow is seamless, reaching a climax. The interweaving of romance and crime boldly expresses the author's thoughts on feminism without reservation, making it a truly thought-provoking novel. (Apologies for the rambling 🙏 But I really loved this book.)
