"Wow, this sounds creepy. Why would anybody want to read this?"

"It's Mine" if I were to say this story was made for everybody that would be an overstatement.

The synopsis is what's supposed to catch the reader's attention and it sure caught mine. The author really said "your attention?" "It's Mine". ...anyways... here's why I loved "It's Mine".

Story: I can't say the synopsis is enough information for everybody to understand what "It's Mine" is about. The synopsis makes the story appear as a generic thriller story. "Stalking lots ... of people just to take them h*stage and k*ll them later." No. It's not like that at all. The reason for stalking appears more concerning than creepy for some reason. Though, if you end up reading and find it more creepy than concerning. I'm afraid you're more normal than the rest of the people who have read this and you most likely will never like the story. The author takes red strings connecting them on thumb tacks of a cork board and once you think you know everything, they throw out that cork board full of red string and thumb tacks and place a new one, you're still in the dark until more extravagant plot twists and dark truths appear.

Story Rating: 10/10 > 10/10


Art: I love the facial expressions the characters create, it shows what they're feeling. I also love the actions- how they move around. It's not sloppy and its quality is consistent.

Art Rating: 9/10 > 9/10


Character: Everybody is written so beautifully. Reading this story I could see every person played a part, not just the main characters. The characters are shown to be curious and don't always know what's best, but they do what they think is best and I guess for this, it's the thought that counts. When reading this story it feels like you're beside them as a ghost as you sense their constant corruption, curiosity, concerns, etc. Avant-garde and dementia (genre).

Does everything work out in the end for the characters? Do the characters get character development? Read to find out.

Character Rating: 10/10 > 10/10


Enjoyment: I loved the chaos, it reminded me of a personal favourite "B*stard" (which is much better than the synopsis lets on). It was out of this world. A completely new storyline, never seen before (personally).

Enjoyment Rating: 10/10 > 10/10


Overall: If you're looking for a thriller that will have you like a fish on a hook, read this. If you're looking for a story with lots of plot twists and/or dark truths, read this. If you're thinking of trying something new, read it. This read might be made for you!

Overall rating: 10/10 would recommend!

"The Hip Guy" has a synopsis that would make you think the story is too weird to read, but(t) it's the complete opposite! Here's why I love reading "The Hip Guy" and you should too.

Story: The story of "The Hip Guy" is astonishing. You look at it and you say "why not?". When reading the first couple of chapters you find yourself laughing at random little jokes. It's a simple read with a calming effect, but as every story marked with drama in the genre section, there ... is drama. That drama could make or break the story, luckily, it didn't. The drama made the story more intriguing, in a way where the readers are on the edge of their seat begging for more to see what happens next. I would personally say the drama isn't portrayed in a way where you get fed up with everybody and drop the story after screaming at the top of your lungs because the writing stresses you out. When going over something they take up the right amount of time and never drag it out. There is balance in everything here.

Story Rating: 10/10 > 9/10


Art: It's no spoiler (considering it's in the synopsis) that Ga-eun Seong makes leggings. Naturally, she would most likely be fashionable if she works in the fashion industry. She owns various outfits (you can find out what style and how they look for yourself) but they look gorgeous really compliments the design of her characters' features. Though, she's not the only piece of art in this story. Other characters' designs and their outfits or cars, the interior and exterior of their house, the sky, and a simple parking lot (somehow caught my attention, maybe, I'm just basic. I'm not sure)

Art Rating: 10/10 > 9/10


Character: The characters are really mature (unless they're on the opposing team, as expected of a bad character that thickens the plot of a story). Though, I'm especially talking about our main main character (yes, I put two of them on purpose) and our main character. Our main main character - Ga-eun Seong and our main character - Chan Gwak are extremely mature, I believe it comes from their experiences. Over the course of the story, you can see they are not afraid to put people in their place and do not let other peoples' negativity stop them from doing as they please. They get what they want, when they want (this is a good thing by the way). When the characters were placed in the story they were not shown at their lowest or highest and I think it's nice to start there because we the readers can't judge them to say they're crazy or extremely stupid (especially without getting to the point that tells you it's a flashback or a foreshadowing moment). It's never too late to become an even better version of yourself. If you love character development you should read "The Hip Guy", there's enough to go around even for...

Oh, yeah, and if a bad character is written good and can make you want them to leave they were written well.

Character rating: 10/10 > 9/10


Enjoyment: I didn't come for the butt and fart jokes at the beginning, but I stayed because of them and it led me to my "oop", "...oh", "Yesss" phrases, and so on.

Enjoyment: 10/10 > 10/10


Overall: If you find butt + fart jokes funny (or don't) you should be reading this. Do you like fashion? You should be reading this. Do you like drama that doesn't drive you insane and everybody is happy in the end? You should be reading this. Do you like romance that has an amazing subtle build-up and isn't dragged out? You should be reading this. Read it.

Overall, "The Hip Guy" is a hidden gem. 10/10 > 10-10 would recommend.
