To Marry You

My Thoughts on To Marry You

"To Marry You" promised a fluffy, comedic romance, and while it delivered on some aspects, my experience was a mixed bag. It's a light read, perfect for when you want something undemanding, but be prepared for some questionable plot developments and character inconsistencies.

First Impressions

The initial chapters definitely grabbed my attention. I was intrigued by the setup of the MC's family dynamic and the promise of a lighthearted pursuit of the ML. The premise of a world where men can give birth, without resorting to the Alpha/Omega trope, was also refreshing. However, that initial excitement waned as the story progressed.

What Works Well

The novel shines when it focuses on the fluffy, lighthearted moments. There's a certain charm to the MC's pure, naive, and somewhat childish nature. I also appreciated the lack of overly dramatic or scheming elements, making it a relatively stress-free read. The doting parent aspect, particularly the story of the MC's own parents, added an interesting layer, even if it wasn't fully explored. I have to admit, there's something heartwarming about a story that doesn't take itself too seriously.

Areas of Concern

My biggest issue lies with the pacing and character development. The romance felt rushed and unconvincing. The ML's sudden change of heart towards the MC lacked a solid foundation, making their relationship feel somewhat forced. I struggled to understand the ML's motivations and found his behavior inconsistent at times. The MC's age and maturity level also became a point of frustration for me. While his naivete could be endearing, it often bordered on childishness, making the age gap between him and the ML feel more pronounced. It really felt like the story needed more exposition and depth to justify the characters' actions.

Final Verdict

"To Marry You" is an okay read if you're looking for something light and fluffy and don't mind overlooking some plot holes and character inconsistencies. However, if you prefer well-developed characters and a believable romance, you might find yourself disappointed. I'm giving it a 3/5. It has its moments of charm, but the rushed pacing and underdeveloped relationships ultimately hold it back.
