My Thoughts on There’s a Psycho Who Has a Crush on Me

First Impressions

Okay, so the title is definitely attention-grabbing! "There's a Psycho Who Has a Crush on Me" promises a wild ride, and while the "psycho" part might be a bit of an exaggeration (at least from what I've gathered so far), the story itself is quite engaging. It gives off major fluffy, slice-of-life vibes with a good dose of high school romance thrown in. The premise of an academic achiever male lead paired with a protagonist who struggles a bit more academically definitely piqued my interest.

What Works Well

The story seems to excel in creating a sweet and endearing atmosphere. I'm a sucker for a cute protagonist, and it sounds like this one delivers. The dynamic between the leads, especially the twist of a middle-class ML and a rich young master MC, is a refreshing change of pace. It's a dynamic you don't see every day, and I appreciate the author for flipping the script. The "deskmates" trope is also a classic for a reason, and I can already imagine the adorable interactions and budding romance.

Areas of Concern

One thing that stood out to me is the MC's backstory. While I'm glad he finds happiness, I'm also a bit intrigued by the mention of Cotard's disorder and the desire for a deeper exploration of its effects. It sounds like there was an opportunity to add more depth and complexity to the story, perhaps by delving further into the MC's emotional journey. Also, I'm always a little disappointed when family issues aren't fully resolved, so I hope the "mom thing" gets a satisfying conclusion.

While there might be some areas where the story could be explored in more depth, the overall sweetness and endearing characters seem to outweigh any minor shortcomings. I'm definitely adding this to my reading list!
