Doctor Andreas Marino loves his quiet life, filled with work and simple amusements, and when the strange Miss Abbott arrives in his town he decides he doesn’t like her at all. Unfortunatelly she’s funny and quirky, has an uncommon past and seems to enjoy getting him in trouble. Welcome to a sketchy Victorian rom-com!
I have been reading this webcomic over several months because Webtoons forces you to read it through their app, which only lets you read one page a day unless you buy tokens. I would rather just buy a copy of the book — though I calculated it at one point and the author (and Webtoons, I don’t know the split) get a lot more than they could charge for one book if someone were to FastPass the whole comic.
I was wholeheartedly enjoying it up till the series conclusion.

I was really put off by the way the author handled the reunion between Cati and her first love. Up till this point the story had been extremely mature about relationships and drama-free, but not only did she kiss her ex “for closure,” she didn’t seem to understand why she had done anything wrong or apologize to her fiance. Instead, the fiance had to basically be like, well I still love you so I guess I have to be ok with it. It really soured the end of the comic for me.
