There's only four reviews here and already half of them have criticisms I don't agree with, frankly.Although I'm only 34/125+4 chapters in, I'm already really enjoying the setup of this novel. For one, this novel fulfills the feeling of a 'dense protagonist FL' but not too dense where readers get frustrated about how oblivious she is. Instead, the author strikes a good balance between her being subtly unaware of the advances of those around her and her growing realisation. So it's pretty satisfying to get both halves of the story there.I also really enjoy the ML's so far and their behaviour around her. To be honest, my least favourite ML is the prince who will most likely be the final ML due to the fact that he's on the cover of the novel. It's not his fault, but it's because I just prefer the other two (who have been introduced so far, I have no idea if there will be more) more.The other MLs, as one of the reviews have gone into, are the rich heir of a (I think) aristocratic family and the original story's Uke/Shou. The main reason is because I'm a big fan of how the author writes their secret pining for the MC. So cute and romantic.Spoiler
Like how the original story's Uke/shou noticed the MC from their days at the academy way before she noticed him and was always trying to get close to her etc to no avail. It's done so cutely and it's kinda sad to predict that he won't be the final choice : (
[collapse]There's some talk about pheremone and ABO stuff, but to be honest, the world set-up is a lot more generous in that it doesn't purely have to be a Alpha-Beta relationship or a Beta male-Beta female relationship to have children.Addressing a review that says the ML's behaviour regarding work ethics towards the MC is unfair and unjustified: I think this is too much of an exaggeration and has been focused on. SpoilerThe author dives into how the MC is a workaholic and even the ML tells her she can take a break. But to pursue her dream of being a worker who lives off her salary and can retire, she works hard.
[collapse]Anyway, the fanservice in this story is soooo good. Like the way how the MLs are always trying to get close to her, get her attention, give her the best benefits they can offer her while being aware of the limitations of their position... it creates a very enjoyable romantic read. Very good reverse harem <3 I'm excited to read more!
