Pleasantly Surprised
When I picked up this book I was not expecting a slow burn romance with discussions of healthy communication, work-life-balance, sacrifices for the sake of others, and issues that honestly every relationship goes through, but I'm really glad that's what we got!
This story follows two gay men who break up after a 5 year relationship but continue to be in each other's lives over the next 10 years.
I thought it was very bland at the beginning but the slow burn hooked me and I ended up falling for the two main characters. This felt more like a romance than your typical BL and I really loved it.
If you don't like slow burns, and almost no spice (there is a teeny bit) then this probably isn't the book for you.
The language was fairly easy for advanced learners, and I understood everything although I looked up a few words. I'd say this is great for upper N2 level and above.
