Description
“Divorce… let’s do it,” Eli stopped unbuttoning his shirt and looked at Ruby. It was a rare expression of surprise, and Ruby was just as shocked. She had blurted it out impulsively, and even she was surprised by her own words. While wondering what answer she would give if he asked for a reason, she quickly shook her head. “In two weeks.” “…What?” Eli unbuttoned his shirt with a seemingly casual voice. “I have some business to attend to in the capital, so let’s do it then. I’ll inform the Emperor in advance.” “…” “Write down what you want when we divorce. I’ll take care of it.” His response was so clean and precise that it almost felt surreal. Surprisingly, it was Ruby who found herself at a loss for words. How foolish of her to think he would at least ask her reason for demanding a divorce. “Okay,” Ruby said with a lonely smile and left the room. On the day they divorced, Ruby died in a carriage accident. *** She woke up in her first year of marriage. She thought it would be easy to divorce again this time… “I sent a letter to divorce.” “What?” “It’ll be over quickly if you tell His Majesty……” “No, Ruby. I have no intention of getting a divorce.” He said with a tender voice and a face she had never seen before. The second divorce from her husband didn’t seem easy.

My Thoughts on A Second Divorce is Difficult
"A Second Divorce is Difficult" promised a second chance romance with a fantasy twist, and while it delivered on some fronts, it also stumbled in a few key areas. The premise, involving a regressed female lead and a male lead chasing after her, definitely piqued my interest, but the execution felt uneven at times.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the European-inspired setting and the promise of a complex relationship dynamic. The idea of a do-over, where both characters could learn from their past mistakes, had a lot of potential. However, I quickly realized that the early chapters, while setting the stage, could be frustrating due to the characters' initial flaws and misunderstandings.
What Works Well
The novel shines when it explores the male lead's journey of regret and redemption. Seeing him confront his past actions and actively try to make amends was compelling. The author does a decent job of portraying his internal struggles as he grapples with the consequences of his neglect and obliviousness in the first timeline. The plot itself has some intrigue, especially when it delves into the schemes of the antagonist, Arlen. Her character, while detestable, adds a layer of conflict and drives the narrative forward.
Areas of Concern
My biggest issue lies with the female lead, Ruby. While the story is supposedly about her second chance, she often feels like a passive observer in her own life. Her character development felt stunted, and at times, I struggled to connect with her motivations. Additionally, the translation could use some improvement. The pronoun errors and awkward phrasing occasionally disrupted the flow of the story and made it difficult to fully immerse myself in the narrative. The side conflict with another country also felt shoe-horned in and unnecessary to the overarching plot.

Final Verdict
Overall, "A Second Divorce is Difficult" is a mixed bag. While the male lead's redemption arc and the intriguing antagonist provide some entertainment value, the weak female lead and translation issues hold it back from reaching its full potential. If you're a fan of second chance romances with flawed characters and don't mind overlooking some imperfections, this novel might be worth a try. However, be prepared for a bumpy ride with moments of frustration alongside the heartwarming ones.
