    MC roulette
    Everyone has different issues. The author has taken upon the mantle of using different POV with each character and it's nice to see the various relationship issues touched upon in this series. Each new character has their own arc but the main girl is still relevant and isn't parked at a corner once her story's been told. The world feels real and rich because of this and its been an enjoyable read

    Refreshing!
    I liked how it was not soley 1 FL throughout the story, but multiple. Each one seemed to have 1 characteristic in 1 person's story, but we get to dive deeper with each chapter. And everyone was very relatable!

Getting bare, getting real
Inexperience with sex, relationship troubles, dreams that never materialized. The author has a way of depicting interpersonal stories in a way that feels so real even if you haven't been in the characters' shoes. Speaking of which, the character designs are cute yet fitting for a more mature audience. It's also a breath of fresh air how the various storylines of the ensemble cast are interwoven seamlessly. There's our main couple, of course, but you also learn about various secondary characters from their own perspectives. These aren't one-and-done side stories either. You may be following a certain character in one "arc," but you'll still learn about the new developments in the other characters' lives. And that just makes them all the more relatable!
