My Thoughts on The General Wants to Hug and Sleep
"The General Wants to Hug and Sleep" promised a fluffy, romantic comedy, and while it delivered on some of that, it also stumbled in a few key areas, leaving me with mixed feelings overall. This josei novel follows a tea house inheritor who finds herself unexpectedly entangled with a powerful, insomniac general. The premise is undeniably charming, but the execution wasn't always perfect.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the lighthearted setup. The female lead's scheme to avoid her family's clutches and the general's unusual sleeping habits made for a cute and quirky beginning. I appreciated the potential for a sweet and unconventional romance. The idea of a powerful general being reduced to a cuddly mess was definitely appealing.
What Works Well
The chemistry between the leads is undeniable. Many readers praised the "fluffy" and "sweet" interactions between Xiao Zhi and Chu Zhu Yu. I especially enjoyed the general's possessiveness, even though it bordered on obsessive at times. The story offers a light, quick read that's perfect if you're looking for something to fill a lazy afternoon. The unique premise of a man marrying into the woman's family and the fish-out-of-water scenario created some genuinely funny moments. Some readers also appreciated the introduction of suspenseful elements later in the story.
Areas of Concern
However, I did find some aspects of the story problematic. The translation quality was a recurring concern. While some readers were forgiving, noting the translator's efforts, others found the grammar and sentence structure distracting. Furthermore, the plot felt rushed at times, with events unfolding abruptly and feeling somewhat forced. The female lead's naivete, while initially endearing, sometimes crossed the line into frustrating, leading to avoidable conflicts.

Final Verdict
"The General Wants to Hug and Sleep" has moments of genuine charm and sweetness, but it's ultimately a flawed read. The weak translation and questionable plot points hold it back from reaching its full potential. If you're looking for a light, fluffy romance and are willing to overlook some significant issues, you might find something to enjoy here. However, proceed with caution and be prepared for a potentially frustrating experience. I'd give it a 3/5.
