After binge reading the entire thing i have genuinely enjoyed reading the hell outa this book. Its crazy how easy i got hooked. the beginning is always the hardest part for me to get through, but with this one i had no problem whatsoever. 10/10 would recommend(already have to friend) i honestly hope this gets alot more reads.
An amazing read that I highly recommend you to try the chapter are massive compared to other novels but you'll still always want more also the drama tag definitely has earnt it's stay geez they need to calm down and just talk normally for just one minute and maybe then all their problems could be solved (though the novel would be much shorter that way)
This book was recommended to me by a friend, I personally didn’t think it was going to be that good from the explanation I was given from said friend, I thought it was going to be one of your regular ******* yuri stories. I was thoroughly impressed by the quality of this book when I started reading, I have honestly enjoyed reading this book so far. One of the most outstanding books I’ve ever read. I am so glad this book was recommended too me. Would 100% recommend to someone, wish I could give this book more stars, because it deserves it.
I can't express how much I like this novel. I love how the author makes the characters realistic and each of the main cast has their own thoughts and backgrounds that support how they act and how they process certain things, it just makes me view them more as real human beings rather than just characters in a novel to which I enjoy very much. Overall I find this so refreshing to read.
I love the character design and the general story development. Everything seems top notch. Thanks for the constant update, keep it up. I'd totally give this story a 10star rating if I could.
This story is a pain to read one of the two main characters is just a bully and an iredemable *****. As someone who finds likable characters to be the most important thing in a story I cannot rate this story highly. I don’t like reading about bullies or bullying in general and thats all the mc does. Don’t even get me started on Akio. He manipulates the girls feelings repeatedly to force them to spend time together for an “experiment” when it is clearly unhealthy for the both of them and everyone around them. Kanako shouldn’t have even bothered giving Haruna another chance after what she did and chio is the only character that’s enjoyable to read about.

This story is so well written and realistic, That even I can relate to the main character, which I can't do a lot. If your looking for a slow burn, well developed, rival/enemies-to-lover yuri then is the novel for you
Idea for a story is new to me and it's really interesting. Story isn't progressing to fast, it goes slowly but steadily nothing feels like it's out of nowhere, charachters are ineteresting and we get to know them bit by bit. Story has quite a bit of drama but it's nothing too serious. It gets updated about once a week which is enough to stay engrossed with it and to remember what was going on in the last chapter. Like every story it has its own flaws but they are really minor ones that don't change the experience while reading at all. It's my favourite yuri story on webnovel (and overall favourite on webnovel) and I recommend reading it because its worth it.
Initially it’s somewhat slow, and slightly frustrating with the main duo’s fIrst interactions... it’s a story that’s enthralling, difficult to put down, an intriguing perspective of coming to terms with one’s emotions. It’s difficult not to care greatly for the cast of characters. They’re extremely fleshed out, I’m curious to read more about their back stories. I’m excited to see where it goes! Keep Up the good work! It’s amazing.
Best story that I read can't wait for the next chapter. I'm getting addictive in this story though. 🤗🤭 I'm supporting your works author!👍👍
For me this story could be a paper book with the quality of the writing and the script. The characters are also extremely engaging and well constructed. One of the best school stories I have ever read.
Few minor prose issues aside, this is one of the best novels I read on Webnovel. The story is engrossing, and the characters are fun and interesting. Most of all, I am just excited to see how things develop. Keep up the great work.
This deserves a manga, IT WOULD BE GREAT. i mean, this novel has this shoujo-ai vibes sooo, this deserves a manga. btw PERFECTION. this story is epic. wish it would take more than a hundred chapters b4 it ends... yeah
Okay so this is one of the best novels that leaves me intrigued and wanting more. And you surely deserve a five star. You're doing an amazing job. Based on your current chapter and a few previous ones after Akio decided to break the deal. From my own perspective it would be better if Haruna kept her feelings and then let Akio keep getting close to Kanako. By the time he realizes oh, she's no longer playing to my script (to make her jealous and want to confess) he'd surely stop going close to Kanako. Which she may be hurt but Haruna would be there then. But I love where you're taking it. And I love the flow. Keep up the good work.👏
this is a great read to be completely honest the story pacing is quite nice and the characters are cool af, but we're still waiting for the chiyo chapter so then it will be 6 stars
I'm admiring the story and plot... The characters are comprehensive for the story. Actually, each week, I keep on guessing about the update and what will happen in the next chapters! This story just makes me wanna wriggle and feel tingly within. Please read my web novel, too: - Let Me Choose You - Who Are You - Facing Into The Sky Thanks🤍🤍🤍
The autors writing style is in depth with the full spectrum of emotions. I’ve laughed, I’ve cried, I’ve gotten angery at the people feeling like I was actually in the story. I’ve never had a wall slam experience myself but when I was reading about it I felt like I was in the moment. I’m sorry to be at the end of the chapters posted but I’m soooooo excited for the next ones to come out. I’m looking forward to their first kiss!
While reading this novel, I had felt a myriad of emotions. I had cried like a baby, laughed so loudly my mom looked at me weird, lost my sleep for one night and even at some moments wanted to kill the author(I'm sorry saturnalia-san). Now the writing quality is superb and I loved it always. it always made me interested and engaged. I love the dialogues and the way it is written. I can't say anything about updates tbh. I just binge-read all 7 volumes in 4 days and I guess the novel update was kinda consistent when I looked? I love almost all of the characters (except Michi) and since I am quite possessive I found myself quite similar to Haruna and tbh every character felt interesting in different ways...its quite hard to explain in words, to be honest, and I think experience is the only way to understand what I meant. just loved everything I recommend it. okay about the story. I am quite new to this girl love genre and I will say that all of the difficulties I would expect and beyond in such relationships were depicted quite well. Although the initial affair wasn't realistic. the stuff that followed was surprisingly realistic. but it's a personal opinion but romance between Michi and Chiyo as well as budding between Mayu and jasmine felt forced. I wanted mayu, Itsuki and jasmine with others staying friends...but I guess it's the author's choice welp. now I'm getting quite the feeling that Katsumi is going to end up with hanami... I hope it won't happen to be honest... it's a really good story but if in the end, all it is about is every girl appearing as a character in the novel loving another girl closest to them, I feel that the entire charm of this novel is going to fall. it's about the rarity of such relationships and their effects that gave charm to this novel..but if it's going to become a romantic partner 'match the following' of each girl and every other girl appearing in the novel, I'm going to go into a depression. I fear the above point so much that I would rather drop this novel rather than be hurt about this novel not meeting my expectations... In the end, it's an awesome novel and I loved it so much that I would rather drop this novel in fear about it leaving a bad taste in me in future by making the entire story a delusion beyond delusions sorry if it was long and boring...Thanks for reading!

IT WOULD BE GREAT!!! but i would understand if this novel ended with them being a couple in the end...
5 Stars for you! I don't normally write reviews but this story definitely deserves one.... The storyline is great, Character description perfect... The fact that Haruna is having conflicted feelings towards Kanako... When is she gonna accept it?! You love her!! Thank you so much for a wonderful story...
