My Husband and I Sleep in a Coffin Vol. 1
Why Read This?The one-sentence sell. What do you get for showing up to this book, even when it's hard?
A delightfully unhinged supernatural BL that perfectly balances dark yandere obsession with laugh-out-loud hijinks in the most unusual setting imaginable. The coffin-sharing setup creates both intimate forced proximity and genuinely comedic situations.
Synopsis
A cozy coffin for two becomes one recluse’s reality when he wakes up in the frigid body of a thousand-year-old corpse! Can he find his footing in this new body? Even then, can he survive the passionate doting of his handsome—and quite unhinged—coffinmate? Reclusive gay virgin Wang Xiaomie has just awakened inside the body of a thousand-year-old corpse dressed in ornate wedding finery. Stranger yet, he finds himself sharing a coffin with immortal warrior Wen Fengjin, who has spent the last millennia patiently waiting for his dead lover to return. Constantly hungry with nothing to eat and only a magic peach blossom tree to keep his heart pumping, Wang Xiaomie must now navigate being trapped in an ornate mausoleum, undead, all while dodging pesky grave robbers. To make matters worse, he must also keep a lid on his growing attraction to this hot–albeit completely unhinged–immortal who will do anything, even kill, to keep his beloved safe. Hijinks ensue in this twisted yandere tale filled with mistaken identities, dastardly plots, grave robbers, and more!
