I was hoping to get some kind of clarification on literally ANYTHING that was going on in this story and haven’t gotten anything. I also liked the art in book 1 more as well. This is a series I won’t continue with, but I can see how others like this. Just not for me!

Freaking Romance volume two jumps right in where volume one ended with no time in-between. Zylith and Zenon are trying to figure out why they can exist together in the same apartment, but their respective friends can't see each other. Zylith attempts to learn about romance to give her stories a more realistic quality. Zylith's dad makes a reappearance to threaten her and attempt to manipulate her to do what he wants, but Zenon's friends ship helps her to navigate standing up for herself. But Zenon isn't being complete honest about his mom and what is going on with his family. They will only have about a month together to figure this all out and hopefully we learn more in the next volume.

Yet another amazing volume. I have been recommending this to all my romance lovers in the manga section. It’s a hit!

I'm so confused, I'm not going to lie. What is really happening right now? How am I supposed to feel?

I'm not even sure how I would explain this plot of this book aside from saying it's very good and entertaining but extremely confusing at the same time.

This volume it was finally revealed what was happening (although it feels more like a hypothesis right now, rather than what is really happening),and we finally got to see the two main characters interact more.

I really like Zylith as a main character, and I feel so bad for what is happening to her. She deserves so much better, and someone needs to do something about her father.

I have so many mixed feelings on Zelan. He needs to communicate more with Zylith, I swear to god. He is hiding way too many things, and it's making it hard for me to root for me.

The romance is also confusing me because I can't tell if this will actually turn into a queer romance or if it's all queerbait. If it's the latter, I'm going to be so mad.

Overall, this is a really strong story with two compelling main characters, and I'm so excited to read more and see how everything unfolds.

Just finished reading the second volume for Freaking Romance. 😱

Volume 2 you find out that instead of living with a ghost, Zylith is living with someone from a parallel dimension. Zelan is a famous singer with a large internet following. Zylith is an aspiring comic artist trying to make it on her own.

The things I really liked about the story:
- Great chemistry between characters
- The art style is gorgeous
- The storyline is interesting

I really laughed a lot, Zylith is so funny.

Things that I think could be better:
- Some of the slang used is funny, but other times it's a little too baby talk for me.

Other than that, I am hooked and can't wait to read more! 📚 #FreakingRomance #Webtoon #Romance #Comedy

I did not read book 1 however I didn't really need to as I still pretty much knew what was going on. Though I will be getting book one so I can read it too. This is a cute story that deals with a tear in time where these two people who live in the same apartment but in different worlds seem to be leaking into each other and only they can see each other. One has a crush on the other but one big thing is if they touch each other with bear skin they disappear for a few days not being able to see each other for a while. The story itself covers some deep topics, and has some really cute art.

After binging volume 1, I immediately picked up this volume to continue the journey with Zylith, Zelan, and Verose.

In this installment, we had Zylith “training” to compete in a romance contest with the help of “teacher” Zelan. Not only was this plot point adorable, but it brought with it a love triangle!!! Also, we see Zelan going from a “cinnamon roll” “soft boy” to a sexy alpha machine in about 2 seconds flat, which was YUMMMMM! I’m not going to spoil anything beyond this because you all just need to pick this up and read it!

I was completely intrigued to see where this love triangle was going to go that I ended up binging the rest of the second season of the comic on WEBTOON and finishing it in one sitting. I seriously cannot get enough of these freaking romantics! I will definitely be binging the rest of the episodes as soon as I can and I will be purchasing volume 2 and any other future volumes for my collection.

Thank you to NetGalley, Wattpad WEBTOON Book Group, WEBTOON Unscrolled, and Snailords for the opportunity to read this book. The thoughts and opinions expressed above are honest and my own.

Captivating Cuteness. Volume two hits us with more supernatural romance, art that was absolutely beautiful and a story that makes you want more in the end.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an advanced reader's copy in exchange for an honest review.
I adored the first volume, but this one fell flat for me - it could have been that the first volume had so much mystery, but this one seemed a bit stagnant. The arc could have used a recap instead of dropping the reader in the middle of something, so I'm assuming the arc was missing some content. Art was covered by watermark, making it hard to read.

"Freaking Romance" continues its captivating journey in this second volume, offering readers a deeper look into the enchanting love story between Zelan and Zylith, a ghost haunting her apartment.

This installment delves into heavier themes, such as trauma and its impact on relationships. Witnessing Zylith's struggle with her abusive father, Zelan's protective instincts kick in, leading to a poignant exploration of empathy and healing.

However, the pacing occasionally falters, with some scenes feeling drawn out, and certain character motivations needing more clarity.
Overall, "Freaking Romance, Volume 2" is a great continuation of the series, blending romance, supernatural intrigue, and emotional depth to create an engaging reading experience.

This is so cute, sweet and dorky. I absolutely love the art style, the humour and the characters. I read this in a single afternoon and immediately went to Webtoon to finish the rest of the series.

I love how this Manga is adorable and funny but also has deep moments and getting over trauma. It balances heavy with light so well to keep you captivated. I adore these two and can't wait to see where they go next

Honestly I read these as they dropped via webtoons and it’s definitely a favorite of mine. It’s romance, syfy/paranormal hodge podge but it works? The characters are simple and fun, the further in the more depth they and the setting gets and it’s just a fantastic read. I’m so excited it’s been picked up for publication and to have the gorgeous artwork in book format to add to my collection. So a huge thanks for the publishers for allowing me to arc read and get to watch this collection get the recognition it deserves.

I absolutely adore the art work and drawing style of this artist. I also love how the story flows and the use of different size and style of text adds to the story itself. I am curious as to where it will and can go next.

Thank you for the ARC!

This was one of my favorite webtoons when it was running but now that there are years between us and when it was being posted I've forgotten so much of the plot. So getting to revisit it now is such a wonderful experience.

Snailords's art continues to be one of my favorite styles from the site. Their character designs and backgrounds make for some wonderful panels. Combined with the intriguing premise and heartbreaking scenes, it makes for a great read once again.

I think I will continue to recommend to new readers that they give this series some time to get a few books published because it definitely gets a lot more captivating once they get more into the how's of it all. But it definitely is worth the read and the wait!

This is the second installment in the series and the plotline is smooth and easy just like the book one. I had a great time reading this one too. The characters are amazing and the illustrations are so beautiful. Eagerly waiting for the next part in the series now.

DNF at 30%...
I didn't realize this was volume two of this graphic novel so I missed the important backstory for the characters.
Despite the screw-up on my end, I found the text to be interesting and the graphics were very pleasant.

Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC!

Thank you to Netgalley for providing the opportunity to read this before the release.
As I have said on the previous review for volume one, I adore this series. I've read the entire story on Webtoon, but I really appreciate the fact that they have started to do the "unscrolled" versions of the stories. It is much easier to read in that format. There's no loading. You don't have a pay wall for the next one. It's brilliant. That being said, this particular volume left off on a bit of an awkward spot in the story. I think two or three more episodes would have made this particular volume a bit better. I do still love this. The art is gorgeous. If you are following the series, get this.

I really love this WEBTOON - it was so fun the first volume and this just amped up the hype for me. I love the intrigue and obvious devastation to come because how can these two people be together?! But even more, I love how the story inverts tropes and doesn’t fall prey to easy outs. I also really enjoyed the complexity of our characters and their relationships with their parents. How intense it can be and also how a toxic relationship can make you feel like you’re the one in fault. Such a good story that balances serious topics with humor. Top tier!

Love this series so much!! Was so excited to see volume 2 on here! I get through these so fast and they always end on such cliffhangers. I love the personality of the main character so much! Highly recommend and look forward to the next installment of this series.
