Description
Wen Xin had an emotional disorder since childhood. On his doctor’s advice, he began keeping pets. One torrential rainy night, he picked up an injured little black furball and brought it home. The black furball was extremely aloof—it refused to eat pet food, wouldn’t let him hold it, and its body would occasionally mutate, emitting low groans of pain. But Wen Xin didn’t find anything amiss. He put effort into creating recipes for the furball and, when it was in pain, he would hold it in his arms, gently patting and soothing it. Later, more and more furballs appeared in Wen Xin’s home, each with its own ferocity. Even the aloof black furball began to rebel, taking advantage of his inattention to violently beat up the other furballs. Wen Xin was so tormented that he no longer had time to feel down. After finally getting through the difficult adjustment period, before Wen Xin could enjoy a few days of cuddling with the furballs, the apocalypse broke out. He and the furballs were accidentally separated. He joined a large group heading to a survival base, where he heard that top-level mutants were appearing all over the place. They were powerful enough to dominate territories as kings, so ferocious they made people tremble—yet they were all frantically searching the world for one human. That human was named Wen Xin. Gold, silver, wealth, fame, power—anyone who could help them find “Wen Xin” would be treated as an honored guest by the mutants. Struggling humanity seemed to see a ray of hope; all at once, the entire world set off a frenzy to search for “Wen Xin”!

My Thoughts on After Raising Monsters, I Was Loved by Everyone in the Wasteland
I went into "After Raising Monsters, I Was Loved by Everyone in the Wasteland" expecting a lighthearted story of a kind soul caring for adorable mutant creatures in a post-apocalyptic setting. What I found was a surprisingly complex narrative with moments of genuine emotional depth.
First Impressions
The initial chapters drew me in with their focus on Wen Xin, the protagonist, and his growing bond with his found family of "furballs." These aren't your typical cute pets; they're mutant animals with distinct personalities and backstories, and I quickly became invested in their well-being. The apocalypse backdrop adds a layer of intrigue, hinting at a larger conspiracy lurking beneath the surface.
What Works Well
The heart of this novel lies in its characters, particularly Wen Xin and his evolving relationships. He isn't a passive protagonist; he grows from a physically weak individual into someone determined to protect those he cares about. I appreciated that his strength wasn't just magically bestowed upon him, but earned through effort and a willingness to adapt. The story blends wholesome moments of family bonding with the harsh realities of the apocalypse, and I found this balance to be quite compelling. The world-building is also impressive, with a well-developed conspiracy that keeps you guessing. Even the side characters, though sometimes briefly explored, contribute to the overall richness of the narrative.
Areas of Concern
While I thoroughly enjoyed the novel, I did find some areas where it could have been stronger. The pacing felt rushed towards the end, and some plot points were resolved too quickly. Additionally, the romance between Wen Xin and the male lead is subtle, taking a backseat to the main plot and character development, which may disappoint readers primarily seeking a romance-focused story. The author introduces many side characters but does not dedicate enough time to develop them.

Final Verdict
Overall, I highly recommend "After Raising Monsters, I Was Loved by Everyone in the Wasteland" to readers who enjoy character-driven stories with a blend of heartwarming moments and thrilling plot twists. While the romance is understated and the ending somewhat rushed, the journey of Wen Xin and his mutant family is well worth the read. It's a unique take on the apocalypse genre, with a focus on found family, personal growth, and the resilience of the human spirit (and mutant creatures!).
