Personal Ratings : 4🌟

Crumbs tells the story of Ray and Laurie, two souls who met together and somehow formed a bond with each other. Ray is a seer who can see the present, practicing to oversee the future, and Laurie works is a music enthusiast who's working towards his dreams to become a musician. The one thing they had in common was going to Laurie's aunts Bakery :) Its a real depiction of a relationship, finding yourself and working towards your own goal for each other.

Personal Thoughts
This book was heartwarming at its very best. I didn't expect any magic in the book, but I loved how seers and broomsticks are a sort of your transportation system in the story which is kind of cute. This is a YA Romance that is so innocent it makes you smile with the innocence of the characters. I loved how Ray and Laurie have each their own stories and pathways to make off and that eventho they liked each other, they found ways to stay together till the very end.

One of the things that I loved was the character growth for Ray and Laurie. Ray is just an adorable character, who sticks through to herself but also puts a lot of expectations on herself. She is a hard worker and always thinks about moving forward to challenge herself, but I love how she still stumbles and seeks for others when she needs a shoulder to cry on. Laurie is a character that is somewhat a people pleaser, that does not like to show his vulnerabilities to others and wants to cater to everyone's else feelings except his own, which made he seemed that he created a wall for the people who loves him. I liked that both of them practice EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION without unnecessary drama. Its very realistic and it made me smile on how they handle their problems.

I loved how the author had shown that being in a relationship is not all just rainbows and butterflies, it needs hardwork, and constant reassurance for both sides for the relationship to work. Its a story of growth and wanting to achieve your dreams. There may be times that we will fall and would not know what to do , but at the end, hard work does pay off, even if it takes a little bit of time to achieve it.

Definitely recommended for a light read :)

Biggest thank you to Times Reads for providing me an ARC copy of this famous webtoon in paperback! Loved that I can read offline.
