I Am Trying To Divorce My Villain Husband, But We Have A Child Novel Review

My Thoughts on I Am Trying To Divorce My Villain Husband, But We Have A Child

This novel certainly grabbed my attention with its intriguing title, and after diving in, I can see why it's become a popular read, despite some acknowledged flaws. It's a story that knows what it is: a comforting, if somewhat predictable, romance with a dash of fantasy.

First Impressions

The initial setup, with the young female lead essentially being arranged to marry, definitely raises some eyebrows. However, the childhood portion of the story seems to be a major draw for many. I found it to be a surprisingly sweet and refreshing start, and it nicely sets the stage for the complexities that arise later.

What Works Well

The characters are a definite highlight. I particularly enjoyed the female lead's strength and wit. While some find her naivete frustrating, I appreciate that she retains elements of her original personality, making the reincarnation aspect feel less jarring. The slow-burn romance, while perhaps not groundbreaking, offers plenty of cute and jealous moments from the male lead. The story's pacing is generally well-managed, with a good balance of sweetness and character development. I also appreciate that the story doesn't linger too long on misunderstandings, resolving them relatively quickly. The story also introduces more characters and world-building as the story progresses.

Areas of Concern

One recurring criticism revolves around the female lead's perceived naivete regarding love and relationships. Some find it unbelievable, considering her modern background, and feel it leans into a common, overused trope. The translation quality also seems to be a point of contention for some, with mentions of confusing phrasing that can hinder comprehension.

Final Verdict

"I Am Trying To Divorce My Villain Husband, But We Have A Child" is a novel that delivers on its promise of a feel-good, if somewhat clichéd, romance. While it might not be a groundbreaking work of literature, it's a comforting and enjoyable read for those seeking a sweet and engaging story. Just be prepared for some potentially frustrating misunderstandings and a female lead whose romantic awareness might be a little behind the curve.
