2.0
I will keep this brief but ultimately I feel as if I’ve proven that the dubious genre of romance literature is not my cup of tea in the slightest.
This is essentially a bodice ripper and comes with all the baggage of said genre. Although the web comic is fast paced enough and the descriptions are slimmed down enough to make it a fun sort of read, going back and reading the prose version was nigh on unbearable at points.
I was also admittedly reading a poor translation and some of the wording was quite off putting which could enhance my experience in a negative way.
Ultimately I wasn’t quite sure what rating to give it but I think two is the way to go. If you’re interested I recommend the web comic.
Great Gustav Klimt reference on the cover.
