Romance Is a Bonus Book

Absolutely fantastic. I cried, got mad, walked away from it, came back, was joyful, cried some more then realized I had loved it all along.

From cast to music to story to every bit in-between it is beautiful and a treasure to watch it unfold.

Perseverance,, unity, love . I highly recommend this series. Though short, it will leave you unable to look away. One of the best shows I have seen this year. Bravo to all.

Romance is a bonus book is a heart-warming rare drama full of suspense and meaningful quotes interweaved throughout. This was so beautifully written and perfectly unfolded just like a perfect book. The storytelling had an artistic aspect and flowed almost fluidly. The cast were exceptional in portraying the passion the characters had towards books. An enjoyable drama complemented with amazing performances

Live your life to the fullest no matter what... Each & every scene of the series makes you fall in love with it. It's not just about romance but a lesson for life that whatever the situation comes in your life you should always face it with a pinch of smile. Each & every characters are lovable whether it's the Soft hearted President Kim or the stubborn Ms. Go every character has later which leaves an impact. But the character played by Ms. Song Har rin is just wow every times she appears on screen you are in for a wonderful moment on screen. She is just legit though not being the main lead. This is book which every one should read whether you are romantic or not. Beautiful...

Some love stories are about passion: the need, longing and desperation. This one is not. It is more of a warm blanket than a raging fire. As most k-dramas do, this one recycles a familiar plot, but the storytelling is so deep and personal that it feels fresh. It is beautifully shot, emotional and heart warming. The acting is excellent and matched with a moving soundtrack. Also, mad props to the person(s) behind the 'trenchcoat' scenes. They were awesome and hilarious and I laughed at every single one!

Unlike many book-to-movie adaptations, this show retains the feel of book reading, and includes several touching "story quotes" at the end of each episode. It really feels like you're reading a romance novel. For me, the only disappointment was that the romance itself stayed firmly in the "G-rated" category, and lacked any sort of sexual tension. However, if that's your cup of tea, then this is right up your alley!

ROMANCE RATING: 7/10. Dan-i and Eun-ho are really adorable together and do have chemistry, though it is more on the level of a teenage crush. They share a number of kiss scenes, but the kisses all lack intensity (I wish there would have been at least one really "invested" kiss).

All in all, highly recommended for k-drama lovers!

Great script, deep story and characters, funny and warm and also very credible storylines, not everything is perfect and nothing is black or white, the fact that there is not a super evil or super dumb or perfect character is the best thing about this show. Loved it and I wouldn't change anything.
