Description
They said there was a prince in Sangers Castle—a prince who could die at any moment. My job was simple: to take care of him until that day came. “You dare lay a hand on me?” “I only meant to serve you, Your Highness.” “The very act of someone like you reaching out to me is a mistake.” But the prince’s personality turns out to be far from easy. “Don’t hesitate under the excuse of thinking. When I give a command, you obey without question.” The moment our eyes met, his oppressive voice rang out— “Attend to me.” 𖡼𖤣𖥧𖡼𓋼𖤣𖥧𓋼𓍊 One day, the prince who was supposed to die returned—not as a fragile boy, But as the Crown Prince. “I’ve come to take you back.”

My Thoughts on The Crown Prince’s Guide
First Impressions
"The Crown Prince's Guide" initially hooked me with its promise of a mature romance set against a backdrop of aristocracy and empire. The synopsis hints at a familiar trope: a cruel prince and a devoted servant, but I quickly discovered there's much more depth to this story than meets the eye. The world-building, incorporating the Guideverse concept, immediately intrigued me, and I was eager to dive into the dynamic between the characters.
What Works Well
What I appreciated most about this novel was its subversion of typical BL tropes. The relationship between the MC and ML, while starting with some initial hostility, evolves relatively quickly into something much more nuanced and healthier than I often find in this genre. The author avoids the overused pitfalls of constant misunderstandings and unnecessary drama, allowing the characters to communicate and grow together. I found the male lead to be surprisingly well-written. He's not perfect, but his willingness to communicate and his genuine effort to understand the MC were refreshing. The overall pacing of the story kept me engaged, and the world-building elements, while not always fully explored, added a layer of richness to the narrative.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed "The Crown Prince's Guide," there were a few areas where I felt the story could have been strengthened. The ending felt somewhat rushed, leaving a couple of plot threads unresolved. The concept of the MC using guiding to attack Espers was introduced but never fully explored, which felt like a missed opportunity. I also felt that the antagonist's fate could have been addressed more thoroughly, providing a greater sense of closure.

Final Verdict
Despite a few minor shortcomings, "The Crown Prince's Guide" is a solid read that exceeded my expectations. The engaging plot, well-developed characters, and relatively healthy central relationship make it a standout in the BL genre. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a mature romance with a touch of fantasy and a refreshing take on familiar tropes. While the ending could have been more fleshed out, the overall journey is well worth the read.
