tsundoku_'s review against another edition

I was not aware that this book would take the whole hidden identity trope to stalker level. I don't like that only one of them knew who the other person was. Also this book had a lot of things that were really unnecessary and disrespectful. I didn't even like the main character either. She's way too self centered. Also I skipped to the end and the guy who I guessed was SN was who I suspected from the beginning. They made it so obvious

It's like a little less than mid... Like I don't necessarily like the characters or the fast paces development between them, however... the trope and cause of romance are cute. I would have preferred more of a slow burn for this type of romantic trope. The progression of her using SN as her anchor was just too fast and ill-developed for my liking... like girl please have some self-respect. 

If the story had better characters with more complex thoughts and more detailed development, I would fawn over the book. It was a decent read though so all is well that ends well.

I really loved this book. I knew pretty quickly who SN was. I’m not sure if that was intended but it didn’t make the book bad by knowing. I think the characters in this book are very likable most of the time and I love the “found family” kind of thing going on. It’s a very sweet and good read and I was smiling sooooo big at the end. I absolutely loved it.
