The setup from the very beginning was that they were already in love, but it was all very inexplicable. I explored thirty chapters out of curiosity, but the interactions weren't very engaging, and my curiosity wore off. Maybe there will be an answer later, like a childhood sweetheart appearing out of nowhere, but I lost interest and stopped there. 2026.11.6

   An Ran × Forgot the male lead's name | Interstellar | 138/374 It's normal for romance novels to have some female friendships, but the "Maggie" genre is a very niche area. Strong female lead/female lead/dog relationship is really hard to watch, especially when the female lead is the dog. I can't stand it anymore. The number of times I've been fooled by Wen Yue could circle the Earth three times. But since this woman blindly subscribed to 100 chapters, I decided to grit my teeth and take another look. Jinjiang, you're not any better to me than Yang Shizi. - I've finished reading all the subscribed parts. My impression is that the female lead is a perfect blend of emoticons and loves to act cute. Her cheat-like abilities are significant, but I didn't find them particularly satisfying. Thank goodness she's not a sissy/dog; she might be a good friend of her parents. There is indeed a male lead, but his current situation isn't as good as Robert's. I thought the teacher and his partner were Sun and Diana, but it's probably just pure friendship. Supporting characters in romance novels are quite niche. That's enough about not wasting the money I spent on the subscription. Let's stop here. 2026.5.11

   Chen Sui | Interstellar | Mecha | 9/ I read the synopsis during the serialization period, and since the male lead hasn't appeared yet, I won't write about him. Even though the author has already revised it, we still encountered the most severe test I've ever faced in reading interstellar mecha novels—too many characters, too many perspectives, and too chaotic. It feels like the author wanted to write a lot but couldn't support it with their writing skills. After reading Chapter Nine several times, I decided to give up; Landry's torment is unbearable. - Even a teacher with short hair who simply has a name and says "clean and crisp short hair" is better than someone who has been watching a lot of teachers with short hair. - Strictly speaking, we didn't manage to stick with it until it became a paid subscription, but we had already blindly subscribed to one chapter, so we moved it here.

It's too abrupt and jarring, so let's just not watch it. The male protagonist's blind date was written a bit contrivedly. If he were truly such a skilled pretender, why would he abandon his facade at a barbecue restaurant with luxury cars parked there? Also, during their first meeting, the female protagonist's best friend, who had just broken up with her boyfriend, was even a bit aggressive towards me.

    Zhou Yuchen × Su Cheng|Reunited After a Broken Mirror|75/112 Even two months later, I still remember the shock this book brought to me; it contained the most unsolvable broken mirror and the most speechless reunion. Attached is a comment from someone who's been reading this painfully: The male lead has an ex-girlfriend, S, who continued to harass him after their breakup, even attempting suicide and using her parents' connections to force him to meet her. This second female lead is basically just trying to force a relationship on him. I'm tired, I'm really tired of watching this. I support forced love; a marriage between equals, a forced match, will eventually be sweet. The reason for the breakup is reasonable and unbeatable: Because she was worried about the male lead who had lost contact, the female lead was unable to go home for the holidays and missed seeing her grandmother one last time. At the same time, the male lead's ex-girlfriend, S, kept sending her all sorts of photos of the male lead. The grandmother was the female protagonist's only support for many years, and the male protagonist was the one she had secretly loved for a long time. Having lost all the important people in her life in a short period, the male protagonist will be forever linked to his grandmother's death. How will he be able to let go of this grief? How to let go of these feelings: the two tattoos and the bracelet the female lead gave the male lead. An "S" on the heart, a "7" on the wrist. The heroine's frozen heart was shattered by the giant stone. "How could I possibly refuse someone like you?" I was moved to tears. Do you love me that much? I love you too. I really liked that line, "S" is the female lead's surname, and also the second female lead's... Since she's also a female lead, why can't you...? The reason for the breakup was so brilliant, so I was really looking forward to seeing what would make the female lead let go and give this love story a happy ending. Very disappointing. This book has such a strong staying power that I get nervous whenever I see a female protagonist living with her grandmother. After reading one book after another, I've decided to give up on novels with the setting of living with elders. - It was originally intended for inclusion in the "Read and Review" section. However, during the serialization period, I felt the engagement arc was nearing its end, and I was thinking of adding a full subscription to rate it. But the author extended the story too much, so I abandoned that idea. This is where it should be. - Even in 2026, we can still recall the lasting impact of this book. 368 Jinjiang Coins for a valid review—it's worth having.

    Shen Yunzhou x Zhou Yunong | Devoted to Each Other | 62/68 (skip 20 chapters) Lately, I've really been enjoying watching men with love-struck minds and men playing the victim. I honestly didn't see anything that made the female lead fall in love with me. Was it just because she's the sister of my nemesis that I glanced at her a second time? I couldn't stand the superficial and flirtatious teasing, so I skipped ahead. Perhaps all the female lead's shining qualities are in the 20 chapters I skipped. Even if I saw her pursue me back, it would just feel like another deception. After all, watching someone fall for you and then withdrawing is her specialty. Although I wanted to see the man suffer, I stubbornly held onto certain bottom lines. I can't even bear to look at someone who tramples on sincerity and dignity; how can they talk about respecting love? None of the tweets I saw suited my taste. It seems that liking something is additive, but disliking it is subtractive. I can't keep going just because I like something; there's no feedback.

    Xin Lian x Tang Weimiao | Male with a love-struck mind | 46/87 I did click on this story because I read a tweet saying the male protagonist is obsessed with love, and the synopsis was quite captivating... But the synopsis is around chapters 41 and 42, and the earlier parts were quite agonizing for me. Those who like this kind of story will probably really enjoy it, because it was my first time reading something like this, and it made me quite sad. Giving Samsung 3.5 Is actually a bit too little.

    White Night x Night Hawk | Interstellar | 122/131 The female lead's fighting ability is far too unpredictable; even though I'm almost finished with the book, I can't stand it. There aren't many side stories, so it's not exciting enough. It felt like a waste of time; that's definitely the feeling. It is definitely a heterosexual romance, but the crucial scenes are actually dialogue, giving off a feeling of a Chinese TV drama where the protagonist talks frantically for ten minutes before dying. Jingren is still alive, please!

Now that the male and female leads are getting into a sweet romance, I'll be leaving.

    Xu Zhoutian × Jian Sheng|Campus|33/100 Because of this novel, I've never read another high school campus novel. From what I remember, the male and female leads were the top two in their grade, with the male lead scoring one point higher than the female lead. I couldn't resist leaving a comment: "The essay was out of 60 points, but the male lead got less than 40..." Months after abandoning the novel, I checked my comments and found they had been deleted by the author; the appeal period had passed. When I was a child, I loved campus novels because I didn't know what high school was like back then, so I was very tolerant. Now: I subconsciously think that this grading system is a bit too outrageous... Rate the parts I see.

I don't really like the trope of being coveted and then saved by the male lead; just reading about it makes me tired.
