I’m More in Love with You

My Thoughts on I’m More in Love with You

"I'm More in Love with You" is a short and sweet shoujo ai story set in a school environment, and having read it, I can see why it has a somewhat mixed reception. As a complete oneshot, it promises a quick dive into teenage romance, and it certainly delivers on that brevity.

First Impressions

My initial reaction was intrigued by the premise – the classic love triangle with a twist. The story centers around a girl grappling with her feelings after receiving a confession from another girl, while also harboring a crush on a boy. It's a setup ripe for emotional exploration, and I was curious to see how the author would navigate it.

What Works Well

The story’s strongest point is its concise nature. If you're looking for a quick and easy read that you can finish in one sitting, this fits the bill perfectly. The plot, at its core, is engaging. The internal conflict of the protagonist as she questions her feelings is relatable, even if the execution has some shortcomings. I can appreciate that the story gets straight to the point without unnecessary fluff, making it a good option when you're short on time but craving a bit of romance.

Areas of Concern

However, I found the writing style to be a bit of a stumbling block. At times, the narrative felt somewhat artificial, lacking the genuine voice I'd expect from a teenage girl. The characters could have benefitted from more depth and nuance, allowing me to connect with them on a deeper level. While the plot is fairly straightforward, the romantic tension felt somewhat underdeveloped, leaving me wanting more emotional resonance.

Final Verdict

Overall, "I'm More in Love with You" is a decent read, especially if you're in the mood for a short and simple shoujo ai story. While it has its flaws, particularly in the writing style and character depth, the core plot is engaging enough to keep you interested. It's not a groundbreaking novel, but it's a pleasant enough way to spend an afternoon. I'd recommend it with the caveat that it's a light and fluffy read, not a deep and complex exploration of love and identity.
