This volume 100% sold me on BAB. Meatbun remains unmatched in my eyes in writing psychological romances and I don’t even know if I can call this a romance honestly. It’s fucked up. It’s painful. Both main characters are in a lot of pain and don’t know how to deal with their emotions.
I usually hate narratives where a character ends up with their rapist but despite all the terrible things He Yu has done I can’t help to want to beg XQC to just look at him. Give him a glance. A word even. He Yu has done unforgivable things, but getting to look into his twisted psyche shows how those things are born out of a deep-seated pain.

Content Warnings
Graphic: Mental illness, Rape, Sexual assault, Sexual violence, Suicidal thoughts
Moderate: Homophobia
the vast majority of this book was so horrific and just he yu committing atrocities, and then suddenly the ending had me about to cry. this was absolutely a tough read and not for the faint of heart, but my devotion to meatbun never ceases 🙇 really hoping the next volume will have communication (what a concept) and apologies (!) between he yu and xie qingcheng. I don't think I can handle more toxicity between them 🥴

This book should be called how to commit SA and be delusional, because My god He Yu is terrible.
This has ended in a cliffhanger so I'll have to read the Next one. Yeiii
