The Boss is Very Busy

My Thoughts on The Boss is Very Busy

The Boss is Very Busy is a completed transmigration web novel with a focus on romance. After diving in, I can see why it has a dedicated following, but also where some readers might find it lacking.

First Impressions

Initially, I was drawn in by the world-hopping premise and the promise of a yandere male lead. The idea of a strong female lead navigating different worlds and facing a possessive, yet handsome, male lead was intriguing. The first few chapters established the basic setup, but it took a little while for me to get a feel for the overall tone.

What Works Well

The strongest aspect of this novel is undoubtedly the central romance. The female lead, MuMian, is consistently portrayed as clever and proactive in her relationships. The male lead, who appears in different forms throughout the arcs, is consistently described as devoted, sometimes even to a fault. I found their interactions to be genuinely sweet, and the author does a good job of portraying their growing affection in each world. The novel leans heavily into fluff, creating a lighthearted and enjoyable reading experience. Many readers praised the absence of overly complicated drama, making it a good choice for a relaxing read. The arcs are relatively short, which I appreciated, as it prevented the story from dragging on unnecessarily.

Areas of Concern

While the focus on romance is a strength, it can also be a weakness. Some readers might find the plot lacking depth, with the missions taking a backseat to the love story. I can see how the lack of significant conflict could make the story feel somewhat boring to some. I also noticed that some felt the arcs ended too abruptly, leaving them wanting more closure. The descriptions, while intended to highlight the beauty of the characters, can become repetitive and detract from the overall narrative.

Final Verdict

Overall, I'd say The Boss is Very Busy is a decent read if you're looking for a fluffy, lighthearted romance with a strong focus on the main couple. If you prefer a more complex plot with significant conflict, this might not be the novel for you. However, if you enjoy sweet and devoted relationships and don't mind a simpler storyline, this could be a good way to spend your time. I'd give it a solid 3.5/5.
