  • Arrrrgh, I marathon this book even at work:( Sob sob, peanuts is drying her tears now. It is quite angsty, my poor heart. Luckily got a fairy tale ending which is very unrealistic but make me happy:) When the author is called 'insect', I doubt she will torture me with a tragic ending:P However the process of reading it is rather painful:(

    I better put a note here as some of you might not like 'mistress' story. Yes, the female lead is the mistress of the male lead, the 3rd wheeler. But don't cast stone at her yet because she has her reasons for doing so. The plot does sound rather cliche but it is well-written, so matter of factly that I can't feel hatred but instead pity for her.

  • Pm:
    Any good this book peanuts??

    I find the book not bad ar but it depends on what is your taste & preference. The ending is happy but the process isn't bcos as I've written the female lead is the mistress of the male lead. She left her boyfriend to become his mistress. He has got a wife. She did that for money sake but it is not money for herself but to take care of her mum who is very ill. She also feels really bad abt it. To a certain extend, the book is written quite realistically in that all the characters in the book are rather selfish. Then the boyfriend comes back trying to rekindle their relationship after her contract with the male lead is expiring. The male lead also got a divorce. So, who'll she choose?

  • The plot is different since it is a contract that she entered into for her sick mother.....will give it a read.
