Application For Divorce

My Thoughts on Application For Divorce

"Application For Divorce" is quite the rollercoaster, a blend of futuristic sci-fi, mpreg, and some seriously questionable relationship dynamics. It's a novel that definitely left me with mixed feelings, and I can see why reader opinions are so varied.

First Impressions

Initially, I was drawn in by the premise: a spoiled, rich MC seeking a divorce from a cold ML, only for amnesia to throw a wrench into the proceedings. The futuristic setting and the unique take on mpreg (no omegaverse!) were intriguing. I was ready for some angst and eventual fluff, but I definitely wasn't prepared for everything this story threw at me.

What Works Well

The main couple's journey of redemption and reconciliation is the strongest part of the novel. The MC's growth from a "spoiled brat" to someone genuinely trying to atone for his past mistakes is compelling. The ML, especially his amnesiac/alternate personality, can be quite endearing, and the "papapa" scenes are frequent and, by all accounts, quite steamy. I appreciate that the author put thought into the mechanics of male pregnancy in this world. The world-building itself, with its sci-fi elements and hints of social commentary, adds another layer of interest.

Areas of Concern

Okay, let's talk about the side couple. This is where things get really messy. The relationship between the MC's brother and his obsessive, manipulative lover is, to put it mildly, disturbing. It involves non-con, manipulation, and a whole host of other problematic elements. Many readers found this subplot to be incredibly toxic and triggering, and honestly, I can't blame them. It's a significant portion of the story, and its inclusion definitely detracts from the overall experience. The ending also appears to be a point of contention for some readers, with concerns being raised over the main leads personalities and if the ending was fitting.

Final Verdict

"Application For Divorce" is a mixed bag. The main couple's story has its moments of sweetness and redemption, but the problematic side couple and certain plot elements significantly detract from the overall experience. If you're willing to skip or skim those sections, you might find something to enjoy here. However, if you're sensitive to dark themes or toxic relationships, this might not be the novel for you. I'd give it a cautious 3 out of 5 stars. Proceed with caution, and be prepared to skip around.
