Strengths

  • Super hilarious, fluffy shenanigans.

Flaws

  • Some potential for second-hand embarrassment.

Hilarious gaming novel featuring the most over-the-top funny secret identity shenanigans ever. Jing Huan decides to impersonate a cute, flirty girl and catfish a guy in-game in order to get revenge for his cousin who had her heart broken by the slag guy. Unfortunately, he gets the wrong guy behind the account. Lots of shenanigans and secrets, and thirst (and cuteness) between the main couple, with an angsty reveal arc was everything I hoped for and more. You may need some minor tolerance for second-hand embarrassment, but it's a very fluffy and sweet read once you get past that.
