Ten years, three-thousand and six-hundred days in total. It may seem like a long time, but when you are actually living it day by day, times flies like nothing else. In these ten years, he has only told me “I like you” once. I remember that moment clearly to this day. It was a clear and sunny afternoon.

My Thoughts on Ten Years
"Ten Years" is a web novel that really grabbed my attention, diving deep into the complexities of growing up, love, and the messy realities of relationships. It's a story about Gao Yu and Li Weisen, starting from their middle school days and following them into adulthood, exploring themes of friendship, unrequited love, and the search for connection.
First Impressions
From the beginning, I was struck by the novel's artistic and thoughtful writing style. It's the kind of story that pulls you in, making you feel deeply for the characters and their struggles. I immediately connected with Gao Yu, the MC, and his journey of self-discovery, especially concerning his feelings for his best friend.
What Works Well
The character development in "Ten Years" is a major strength. I especially appreciated how neither the MC nor the ML are portrayed as perfect; they both have flaws and dark sides, making them feel incredibly human and relatable. The novel excels at portraying the nuances of relationships, showcasing how they evolve and sometimes devolve over time. The emotional depth of the story is also noteworthy, as it explores themes of unrequited love, personal growth, and the challenges of navigating adulthood. I was particularly impressed by the translation quality, which made the story flow seamlessly and enhanced my reading experience.

Just be prepared for a rollercoaster of emotions!
