My Thoughts on A Guide to Falling Asleep
"A Guide to Falling Asleep" promised a sweet, slice-of-life romance, and for the most part, it delivered. The story follows a genius university student, Yiwei, as he navigates first love with his childhood friend, Kong Zong. It's a fairly light read, perfect for a cozy afternoon, though I found some aspects more compelling than others.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn to the childhood friends dynamic and the promise of a "dense" protagonist slowly realizing his feelings. The concept of a genius who's clueless about love is always entertaining, and Yiwei certainly fits the bill. The setup had me eager to see how their relationship would blossom.
What Works Well
The central relationship between Yiwei and Kong Zong is undeniably the strongest aspect of the novel. I particularly enjoyed the way the author showed their care for each other through their actions, rather than simply telling us. The explicit scenes were well-written and felt like a natural extension of their growing intimacy. The side plot involving Yiwei's research group also added a heartwarming touch, showcasing the support and camaraderie he experiences outside of his romantic relationship. Several readers highlighted the satisfying explicitness of the intimate scenes, which I agree added depth to their connection.
Areas of Concern
While the romance was generally well-received, I did find myself questioning some of the plot choices, particularly regarding Yiwei's adoption and biological parents. The introduction of his biological family felt somewhat unresolved, and I can understand why some readers felt that the ending didn't provide adequate closure on this significant plot point. The adoptive parents, despite being portrayed as loving, seemed to fade into the background towards the end, which left me feeling a bit unsatisfied. Additionally, Kong Zong's characterization felt somewhat flat compared to the rest of the cast, which was disappointing given his central role in the story.

Final Verdict
Overall, "A Guide to Falling Asleep" is a sweet and engaging read, especially if you're a fan of slice-of-life romances with childhood friends. While the ending and some plot elements left me wanting more, the strength of the central relationship and the heartwarming side characters make it a worthwhile experience. I'd give it a solid 3.8 out of 5 stars.
