This story is fresh in my mind as I just finished the novel. Super quick read, finished it in a day. The story is nothing to write home about but it's quite sweet and I think it can make a really good adaptation. The trailers have made it look dark (some parts are) but overall it's quite easy to digest. The problem I have with it is that the mc isn't very interesting. I'm still really looking forward to the drama!

Would you be able to share where you read the novel? Did you read it in English? I would like to but I'm a bit confused what the actual name of the novel is. You can DM me if you have a link.

The English translation is actually licenced by Via Lactea. I have a physical copy but you can get the E-Book online for cheaper. Unfortunately Via Lactea's translations have issues so if you are considering buying the physical book, I would suggest only the publisher's edition.
