## My Thoughts on *My Former Significant Others Were All Alphas* ### First Impressions Going into *My Former Significant Others Were All Alphas*, I was expecting a potentially angsty ride, given the premise. But what I found was a surprisingly cute and funny story, a rom-com that made me chuckle more than tear up. The short length, only ten chapters, definitely impacted my experience. I was left wanting more! ### What Works Well The humor is definitely a highlight. The protagonist's predicament – constantly dating alphas who then find their "true" omega – is ripe for comedic situations, and the author delivers. I also really enjoyed the dynamic between the MC and his friends. Their group chats were hilarious and added a lot of charm to the story, acting as a great support system for the MC. The main love interest's devotion to the MC is another strong point. It's heartwarming to see him patiently and sincerely pursue the MC, especially given the MC's understandable wariness due to past relationships. The translation is also well-done, making for a smooth and enjoyable reading experience. ### Areas of Concern The short length, while contributing to the story's lightheartedness, also feels like a drawback. The ending felt rushed, and I wished there was more development in the relationship between the MC and the ML. I would have loved to see more of the ML's perspective and a deeper exploration of their connection. Some readers might find the plot a bit confusing or the relationship development too fast-paced. While the ML's devotion is admirable, it might seem a little unbelievable to some, based solely on a chance meeting in their youth. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Some readers might find the reason for the MC not recognizing the ML at first to be a bit cliché. Apparently, when the ML was young, his father would dress him as a girl, leading him to run away and meet the MC. Also, there's the fact that the ML initially searched for a "peerless beauty" among the betas, which some might interpret as an indirect comment on the MC's appearance. ### Final Verdict Overall, *My Former Significant Others Were All Alphas* is a sweet and fluffy read that's perfect for a quick, enjoyable escape. While the short length and rushed ending leave something to be desired, the humor, charming characters, and devoted ML make it a worthwhile read. If you're looking for a lighthearted ABO story with a focus on comedy and romance, this might just be what you need. I'd recommend it, just be prepared for it to be over before you know it!
