know when you see it. I don’t know how to describe it to you. He’s mixed, American and Chinese. I think

Overall: Smile and Badz were the better couple but Liz and Kyro were the more fleshed out characters.

However, this must be my junior-year Twentieth Century History & Politics class because...Things Fall Apart. (We read Things Fall Apart in that class. Everyone who took it is probably laughing hysterically right now. Stop, you guys, think of my ego.) Rent A Gent is a trusted marketplace of handsome, smart, and talented men on demand.

And for character development, omgggg I loved them all! The main character's thirstiness was so relatable 😂 lmfao but yeah I really loved the depth to all the characters. Characters are one of my favorite things to like go on a tangent about and psychoanalyze, especially the darker sides of people, so I just won't 😂 But just know I loved them all! and you guys did amazing creating them! SO appreciative that you guys created characters with so much realistic depth to them and complexity that often kind of gets not explored so well in otomes (or if it is, it'll be kind of archetypal characters with the typical sorts of personalities and struggles. I like how these characters actual felt REAL with their own, specific problems and not just problems that an author made up for the sake of making up, ya know? Doesn't feel forced in.) Here I go with my tangent lmfao lemme stop! To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before meets The Farewell in this incisive romantic comedy about a college student who hires a fake boyfriend to appease her traditional Taiwanese parents, to disastrous results, from the acclaimed author of American Panda. There were MANY Asian-themed puns and so much good food that my mouth was watering (that hot pot scene?? Lord have mercy). Chloe and Drew engage in some hilarious text banter, and the humour in this book was so much crasser than I was expecting!!! It was awesome. Even if I had to read the words “shrivelled vagina” like eight times. I really enjoyed how authentic this book was. This book included the tone markings with Mandarin words and the author also explained the system and significance of tone markings in the beginning of the book. I have not read many books that include tone markings with mandarin words and explain them. I really liked that it was explained so that readers who don’t understand Mandarin would be able to understand the reason for the tone markings. Rewatch Value 8.0 I saw the trailer about a month before the release and liked the OST as well as the familiar faces we all have come to know from other GMMTV productions. I particularly like Mond and was excited to see him in a lead role as he usually portrays a side character. If nothing else Boy For Rent proved that he has the talent and charisma to play a male lead (still holding out for that Kluay and Aichi spin-off).As a white woman, I don't have much experience with Chinese culture and family dynamics other than what is portrayed in film and television. Despite that, I did enjoy learning the foods and terms that I had not heard of before. What I could relate to is the dynamic of children and their parents, and how there is love there but there is also pain, guilt, and some resentment. Chao painted a realistic picture of how hard love can be, and the ways we all sometimes have to accommodate feelings to spare our own. The plot and characters are okay. I don’t think that they are too special or unique. I don’t think that I actually liked any of the characters and their personalities. I liked their internal conflicts more. The inner conflicts that were written in this book were so good and so true. My favorite was probably Drew’s inner conflict. Once you have found your perfect match and booked the rental with the provider, it’s time to enjoy what is sure to be a romantic and unforgettable experience. During this period, you can do whatever activity you please with the rental boyfriend – from dinner dates, cozy movie nights, day trips exploring new places or just lounging around doing nothing for an entire day! Whatever it is you decide to do together, use this time to connect on a deeper level and make lasting memories that are sure to make all your friends jealous. Weddings and proms are the most common reason why people are renting boyfriends, but there’s tons of other reasons why as well. Here are some of the other reasons why girls or guys have rented boyfriends.

I enjoyed the idea of this book. The beginning was maybe a bit slow for me. But overall it was cute. The ending was super strong. The last 10% was my favorite. Rent a Boyfriend中，所有的父母都不適任，此外還有糟糕透頂、被寵壞了的富家子弟Hongbo。我覺得他這個角色代表所有勢力、自大的有錢人，恰好與父母們挑女婿時所求的「乖」呈現強烈對比。本故事也稍微提及亞洲社群裡的恐同現象，像是有些人會因為還沒打算出櫃而租男友度過家庭聚會。 Sometimes I’m ashamed at how I’ve clung to them with bloody, torn-apart hands, trying to make it work even after they show me again and again it’s not worth it. But I’m somehow also ashamed of choosing myself now.” NY, NJ, PA, DE, DC, VA, MD, IL, FL, CA, TX and NV. We’ve been featured on the top TV shows in the world and in hundreds of magazines and blogs. See our Press here. But when she finally decides to choose herself (ie. cutting off Hongbo's proposal for good and throwing her parents' public reputation down the toilet in the process), she can't shake that niggling feeling of guilt. When you've spent so long acceding to your parents' requests and shaping yourself into the girl they want you to be, actively breaking away from that identity leaves you lost and adrift.Add that to the fact that new plots and characters were getting introduced with less than 20% to go and I am one unhappy camper.
