I am being 100% honest when I say I mourn everyday that this will not get a second book. Back in high school and early college I used to frantically check every week for a new update and without a doubt every time there was one I was NEVER disappointed. I'll be honest when I say I have not checked to see if Tan Jiu is still uploading chapters in several years. After she got into complications with the censorship board and had to cancel the second volume and go on a hiatus I have not checked back to see if she fully discontinued the series or not. 

This is legitimately one of the cutest and funniest reads I've ever had. I've never been so invested in every single character before in a piece of media and rarely have since then. This series doesn't even really have any conflicts only mild miscommunications and embarrassing high school slip-ups but that doesn't detract from it at all. It's still massively engaging and fun regardless. Also massive bonus that Tan Jiu has an absolutely beautiful art-style. The thin lines and soft pastels really capture the beauty and joys of this silly high school romance, while the over all composition and posing encapsulate the joy and energy of being energetic and purposefully annoying teenagers. 

...I should read it again.
