My Thoughts on Why The King Needs A Secretary
"Why The King Needs A Secretary" caught my attention with its promise of a strong female lead and a boss-subordinate relationship set in a fantasy world. After diving in and considering other readers' thoughts, here's my take.
First Impressions
The initial chapters definitely hooked me. We're introduced to Celestia, a woman who's seen the darker side of life, having grown up in the slums and faced betrayal. Her journey to the palace isn't a fairytale; it's driven by necessity and a desire to protect her brother. The male lead, the King, is initially presented as a bit of a grump, but his character is quickly fleshed out, which I appreciated. The dynamic between them is engaging, with plenty of banter and a slow burn that feels earned.
What Works Well
Celestia is a standout character. She's intelligent, hardworking, and determined to improve her circumstances. I especially liked that the story emphasizes her growth and capabilities. The King gives her opportunities to learn and develop her skills, such as attending the academy, which allows her to gain independence and status through her own efforts. This is a refreshing take, as she isn't solely reliant on the King's power or affection. The world-building, while perhaps not groundbreaking, is solid enough to support the narrative, and the political intrigue adds another layer of interest.
Areas of Concern
The pacing appears to be a sticking point for some readers, and I can see why. The story unfolds gradually, and the romance takes its time to develop. While I personally enjoy a slower burn, others might find it frustrating. Some also found the plot to be a bit too slow-paced with the female lead not getting enough opportunities to shine.

Overall, I found "Why The King Needs A Secretary" to be an enjoyable read. The strong female lead, the intriguing dynamic between the main characters, and the gradual unfolding of the plot kept me invested. While the pacing might not be for everyone, and some elements could be more original, the novel offers a refreshing take on the fantasy romance genre. If you enjoy stories with intelligent heroines, slow-burn romances, and a focus on personal growth, this might be right up your alley.
