I'm going to rate 5/5 for enjoyability but 3/5 for realism. The premise is that the FL sees the ML as her 'son' and the original FL as her 'daughter' which leads her trying to ship them together and remaining a bit dense for a while to the possibility that the ML would like her.The ML does have a lot of self-esteem issues due to his troubled home-life and being ostracised and bullied by his classmates. The ML doesn't believes he is worthy of the fl, however the FL is always supporting him and trying to promote his self-esteem.And so, as this is a saving the ML novel, the FL likes and trusts the ML unconditionally. Not going to lie the FL is a bit of a Mary sue but she's not an annoying one. I.e. The prettiest and romantically sought after girl in the school trying to save the equally attractive, smartest but somehow excluded ML trope.If you enjoy healing novels this is a great novel to just sit and read to. I feel like I didn't do a good job selling this book but it's a really sweet with a little angst near the end which I like.Sidenote: I've read the main story (up to ch 68) and slowly reading the extras which are fluff galore.
