Quitting My Studies, ‘coz I Want to Date! Novel Review

My Thoughts on Quitting My Studies, ‘coz I Want to Date!

"Quitting My Studies, ‘coz I Want to Date!" promised a light-hearted romance, and for the most part, it delivered. I found myself chuckling at the absurd situations and enjoying the slow burn between the leads. It's definitely a fun read if you're looking for something easy to pick up and enjoy.

First Impressions

The premise is definitely unique. We have Yao Yi, a math genius who is incredibly dense when it comes to anything but numbers. Then there's Fu Chuan, the handsome and intelligent male lead who becomes utterly smitten with her. The initial chapters were quite comedic, showcasing Yao Yi's lack of common sense and Fu Chuan's increasingly obvious (to everyone but her) affections. It was a fun dynamic to watch unfold, and I was immediately invested in seeing how this unusual couple would eventually get together.

What Works Well

The humor is definitely a strong point. The author does a great job of creating funny scenarios stemming from Yao Yi's naivete and Fu Chuan's exasperated fondness. Their interactions are genuinely cute, and I found myself smiling throughout many of their scenes. I also appreciated the focus on friendship. Yao Yi's interactions with her friends and family add another layer of fun to the story. The male lead's doting nature is also a definite plus, and it's fun to watch him try to capture the attention of someone so oblivious. The slow-burn romance was well-paced, and I liked that their relationship developed naturally.

Areas of Concern

While I enjoyed the story overall, I can see why some readers might find the female lead's denseness frustrating at times. There were moments where her lack of awareness felt a bit overdone, and I wished she would catch on a little sooner. Also, the story felt like it was missing something in the later parts. I would have liked to see more fleshed-out stories for the side characters and a bit more depth to the world outside of school.

Final Verdict

Overall, "Quitting My Studies, ‘coz I Want to Date!" is a charming and light-hearted romance that I'd recommend if you're looking for something fun and easy to read. While the female lead's denseness can be a bit much at times, the humor and sweet romance make up for it. I'd give it a solid 3.5 out of 5 stars. It's not perfect, but it's definitely an enjoyable read.
