I Lived with the Villain in the ’70s

"8/10 - 75% would recommend:
Firstly, for an authentic portrayal of mental health issues, this isn't it. The author admits they didn't research DID, so approach with a grain of skepticism.

Secondly, the female lead (FL) is portrayed as selfish, with a black-hearted nature. She deviates from her initial mission to heal the male lead (ML) when it doesn't suit her immediate desires.

Fortunately, the ML eventually finds completeness and deeply loves her, allowing for some character development, albeit not substantial or realistic.

Lastly, the supporting characters are consistently annoying, serving as the novel's 'villains' without clear-cut redemption. The ultimate revenge is personal growth and a better life.

If the FL's behavior becomes unbearable, feel free to skip or stop, as she leans towards a Mary Sue archetype. She may be a salty character, while her husband is portrayed as a submissive partner."

The story might not be groundbreaking, but it's well-paced and balanced with a mix of comedy, slapstick, romance, and drama. The unique aspects come from the protagonist's ability to navigate the male lead's condition, which adds an intriguing twist. Both male leads are charming in their own distinct ways, with their multifaceted affection for the female lead and even self-jealousy, making for heartwarming moments. The main character is likable, assertive, and has excellent taste, demonstrating skills in various aspects such as problem-solving, standing up for herself, and nurturing relationships.

Their interactions are delightful and occasionally frustrating due to the male lead's condition, but without excessive drama. The focus on care, affection, and support is evident. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend this story!
