My Thoughts on The Crime And Punishment Of Summoning A Saint A Bouquet of Wishes
This web novel is definitely a mixed bag, and my experience reading it reflected that. It's short, punchy, and tackles some interesting themes, but it also stumbles in execution. I can see why some readers are drawn to it, while others are left wanting more.
First Impressions
Right off the bat, the premise grabbed me: a summoned saint who isn't thrilled about being ripped from her life to solve another world's problems. The story dives headfirst into the ethical implications of summoning, and I appreciated that it didn't shy away from the potential horrors of being forced into servitude. The initial setup definitely has a "fish out of water" vibe, but with a dark twist.
What Works Well
The core strength of this novel lies in its exploration of the "isekai gone wrong" trope. I found the protagonist's resentment towards her summoners to be quite compelling. The story doesn't shy away from portraying the summoned world as flawed and its inhabitants as, well, not always the brightest. There's a certain catharsis in seeing the protagonist push back against a system that seeks to exploit her. And, for those who enjoy it, the yuri elements provide a sweet, albeit brief, respite from the overall bleakness.
Areas of Concern
While the premise is intriguing, the execution leaves something to be desired. I felt like the pacing was a bit rushed, and some of the plot points felt underdeveloped. The world-building, while present, could have been more fleshed out. I think the author had some great ideas, but the story could have benefitted from a bit more depth and nuance. Some character motivations felt a little thin, and I wished the author had spent more time exploring the complexities of the situation.
Final Verdict
"The Crime And Punishment Of Summoning A Saint A Bouquet of Wishes" is a flawed but ultimately engaging read. If you're looking for a quick, dark isekai story with a protagonist who isn't afraid to bite the hand that summons her, you might find something to enjoy here. Just be prepared for a bumpy ride with some uneven writing. I'd recommend it with reservations, leaning towards a "give it a try if you're curious" rather than a wholehearted endorsement.
