My Thoughts on Sir, I Like You
"Sir, I Like You" promised a sweet romance, and while it delivered on some fronts, I found myself grappling with certain aspects of the story. It's a novel that sparks conversation, and not always for the right reasons.
First Impressions
The premise, an arranged marriage between a high schooler and an older, established man, definitely raised my eyebrows. I went in expecting a fluffy, feel-good story, but the age gap, particularly with the MC still in high school, felt a bit jarring. The story dives right in, leaving little room for world-building or explaining the societal context of this arrangement.
What Works Well
Despite my initial reservations, I appreciated the author's portrayal of a supportive found family. The stepmother and mother-in-law were genuinely kind and nurturing, a refreshing change from the often-antagonistic family dynamics found in similar novels. I also found the MC's emotional journey relatable. His insecurities and vulnerabilities were well-explored, making him a sympathetic character. The author's choice to keep the ML's true feelings somewhat ambiguous actually enhanced the story, mirroring the MC's own uncertainties and allowing me to empathize with his perspective.
Areas of Concern
The age gap remained a persistent issue for me. While the story attempts to normalize it, the fact that the MC is still a high schooler made me uncomfortable. The lack of detailed world-building also left me with unanswered questions about the legality and social acceptance of same-sex marriage in this setting. Furthermore, the ML's initial hesitation and tendency to view the MC as a "kid" lingered throughout the story, making it difficult for me to fully invest in their romance. It felt like the ML was taking responsibility rather than being driven by passionate love.

Final Verdict
"Sir, I Like You" is a mixed bag. It has moments of sweetness and charm, particularly in its portrayal of family and the MC's personal growth. However, the age gap, underdeveloped world-building, and questionable side plot ultimately detracted from my overall enjoyment. I'd recommend this to readers who are comfortable with potentially problematic themes and are primarily looking for a light, fluffy romance with a focus on family dynamics.
