My Thoughts on The Dokkaebi Waiting for the Moon
Alright, let's dive into "The Dokkaebi Waiting for the Moon." I went in with moderate expectations, and I have to say, I came out pleasantly surprised. It's a blend of fantasy, romance, and a touch of the forbidden, all wrapped up in a story that kept me turning the pages.
First Impressions
The initial tags definitely paint a picture: adult, fantasy, smut, yaoi. It screams "spicy," and it delivers on that front. But beyond the steam, there's a surprisingly sweet core to the relationship between the characters. I was immediately drawn into the mystical world and the dynamic between the naive protagonist and the older, more experienced Dokkaebi.
What Works Well
The romance is definitely the heart of this novel. The male lead is, shall we say, morally gray? He's possessive and manipulative, but it stems from a place of genuine care and protectiveness towards the protagonist. That possessiveness, while a potential turn-off for some, adds a layer of complexity to their relationship that I found intriguing. The pacing of the story is also spot on. It's not rushed, but it's not slow either. It allows the relationship to develop naturally, and the mystery woven into the plot kept me guessing. I was genuinely invested in unraveling the secrets surrounding the characters and their world. The author's writing style is also quite engaging, making it easy to get lost in the story.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the novel overall, there were a couple of things that stood out as potential issues. The constant comparison of the protagonist to a child felt a bit off-putting. I found it unnecessary and slightly uncomfortable.

While it's not without its flaws, the engaging romance, the well-paced plot, and the intriguing characters make it a worthwhile experience. If you're looking for a story with a morally gray yet surprisingly gentle male lead and a sweet, naive protagonist, this might just be the novel for you. I'd recommend giving it a try!
