Ps: I don’t do reading goals. The last book I read was Money Matters by Rebel Girls. Not a danmei or manga but in terms of that I last read Husky and his white cat and First Crush Anthology

I personally think the relationship in thousand autumns was interesting but not romantik. But peerless is. Yan wushi and shen qiao would be actuelly a pairing i would have not been mad if there ending were open.

They definitely do have an interesting relationship, what with them being nearly total opposites. I wouldn't even call the relationship in Peerless romantic so far but I'm on board for it to go there!

I know exactly how you feel. I've spent money on Hobonichi Planners for 2025 and I cannot wait to use them for next year. Journaling is amazing and I've been journaling since I was a little girl. You cannot believe how many pens and notebooks I have as I type this. I am considering getting the Writech Gel Pens because I read positive reviews on Amazon. I shopped at JetPens, Stationery Pal, Amazon, Hobonichi Store, The Paper Mouse, and Kawaii Shop. Journaling is not the only hobby I have. Divination, manga, and gaming are also cool for me as well.

I agree sm on what you said about mo ran´s plan of showing sqt´s true colors !! I love mo ran so much he´s my babygirl but I also really like sqt and she didn´t deserve that, I understand he did that to protect ye wangxi since even in the 1st timeline they mention something about sqt betraying her, but he really didn´t need to do all that lol. On the same topic I´ve also seen people side with rong jiu because if you think about it, he´s a sex worker who got all his savings stolen by a young master of a powerful sect and got no justice (since he never saw cwn beating mo ran and didn´t get his money back) but for some reason I don´t really like his character despite being really similar to sqt, I guess he just never grew on me. But yeah the characters having flaws and being imperfect is part of why I love that novel so much, I never run out of things to say about it <3
@thewhelmedlife 3 ай бұрын
I can talk endlessly about 2ha 😂but I do agree with you. Rong Jiu is the other example I usually bring up in comparison to Song Quitong. I won't go as far as saying Rong Jiu deserved what Mo Ran did to him seeing as he was just someone fighting for his own survival as well but both situations feel very different.
