There isn't much to this novel, an easy read, story isn't complicated or elaborate, the schemes are basic, much less politics than you would expect from it.In all honesty, it's mind-numbingly boring.Most of the first 60 chapters are based on a misunderstanding, then it gets cleared up and both adult characters start to realise that they might feel something for each other, just that this process gets dragged out for god knows how long.I ain't sticking around any longer for that.Characters are flat, villains incredibly s*upid, most of the side-characters seem intellectually disadvantaged so more misunderstandings can happen and MC or ML look like geniuses in the eyes of these misfortunate background decorations.What makes it so frustrating is the writer's habit of dragging out absolutely everything, characters are musing about one thing for a whole chapter, the same thing gets repeated two chapters later, while another point you thought they are done with comes back up in the form of a recap.Feels like the writer was paid by words, there's no other reasonable explanation for something so unnecessary.Seeing the overwhelmingly positive reviews from other people, it's probably a matter of taste, so if the story sounds interesting to you then try it out.
