@floreshwa coming to my own works, I got different reasons as to why I love each of my books. FRAGILE HOURS because it was my first ever work and though imperfect there's something oddly marveling about it that makes me surprised every time I reread it. And I got a special soft spot for Woozi, so that adds to it.
AMONG THE STARS is something I believe to be my best ever work so far, because though short, I came to understand that so much can be said through less words. That you don't need a deep dive into the past or backstory to establish the relationship or love two people share. And I've used a lot of poetry and metaphors in it, and also the angst... I never thought myself capable of writing angst.
Nevertheless, my favourite is THE GRAVITY OF SMALL THINGS. There isn't much happening in that book, it's more like a slice of life, where someone in the background becomes the axis in your life, and how it affects you. It's a book that put me through a lot of dilemmas, yet taught me so much in the aspects of writing as well as life. It's incredible how something makes more sense when you're immersed in your character and are thinking through their perspective.
Dami is soft, ultimately sweet, though unassertive. There's so much reflected in her, and she's so so beloved to me. And I guess the writing was also really good, that despite the usual dilemmas I could just put on "Haicheng," and just write. Minghao is such a wonder to write about, and thinking in his perspective is such an eye opener (even if we don't know what they are really like in real life).
I could go on forever about why TGOST is my favourite but that would take ages so I'll stop.
