Pick Up the Rejected Pure Love

My Thoughts on Pick Up the Rejected Pure Love

"Pick Up the Rejected Pure Love" promised a sweet escape, and for a while, it delivered just that. This novel is a straightforward romance, diving headfirst into the sugary pursuit of a rejected heroine. As someone who enjoys a good dose of fluff, I was initially charmed, but the experience wasn't without its drawbacks.

First Impressions

The premise is simple: our MC transmigrates into a novel he loves and decides to woo his favorite character. The alternating POV between the MC and FL each chapter was a unique touch that kept me engaged early on, showcasing different perspectives without repetitive scenes. I also appreciated how direct the MC was; he knew what he wanted and went for it, a refreshing change from some of the more hesitant protagonists I've encountered.

What Works Well

This novel thrives on its "diabetes-inducing" sweetness. The interactions between the characters felt genuine, and the pure, innocent love they shared was undeniably heartwarming. It's the kind of story that can lift your spirits and provide a comforting escape from the everyday. The absence of unnecessary drama or love triangles was also a major plus, making it a stress-free read. The clear focus on the central relationship allows for a deep dive into their feelings and development.

Areas of Concern

While the initial charm was strong, the lack of a substantial plot became increasingly apparent. After a certain point, the story felt repetitive, cycling through dates, studying, and sweet nothings without any significant external conflicts. The MC's family is essentially non-existent, which left me wanting more depth and connection. I also found the premise of an older man pursuing a high schooler a bit unsettling at times, despite the transmigration aspect.

Final Verdict

"Pick Up the Rejected Pure Love" is a decent choice if you're looking for a pure, unadulterated romance with minimal drama and maximum fluff. However, if you crave a compelling plot, well-developed side characters, or significant character growth, you might find yourself wanting more. It's a pleasant, albeit somewhat shallow, dive into a world of sweet romance.
