Didn't really tell me anything I didn't already know about that man.

A cute romance. Is it rivals to lovers? Debatable. I thought they got over that pretty quick. They develop a very supportive and healthy relationship. 

Other things dealt with: complicated families, anxiety and fear of failure. Thought these were done pretty well. 

The timeline was pretty hazy to me. But that might be my fault for not paying proper attention.

The stories had potential but the shoddy translation ruined any emotional impact

It was light hearted when I needed it. The twist was predictable tho. I get why people find the main character annoying but tbh I just shook my head at her because her behavior was so me when my anxiety was at its worst.

Might be for you if you like unhinged behaviour and good for her villain origin stories. I did get bored in the middle, it was starting to get repetitive but it did pick up at the end

This was written from an American perspective (which is understandable because the author is one) so some things didn't really apply to my country, but it did make me think about some things anew. Good read for any feminist trying to be intersectional.

Hard to rate something when only fragments of text remain. Felt sad for all the pieces of writing that didn't survive. 4 for historic value and the longer poems that did survive.
