My Thoughts on Your Highness, The Lady You’ve Abandoned IS the Saintess!
First Impressions
"Your Highness, The Lady You’ve Abandoned IS the Saintess!" certainly grabbed my attention with its intriguing title. The premise, blending romance, comedy, and fantasy with a strong female lead, seemed promising. I was ready for a fun ride filled with magic, courtly intrigue, and maybe a dash of sweet revenge. The initial chapters did have a certain charm, and I was eager to see how the story would unfold.
What Works Well
I found the initial concept of the MC's reactions to the ridiculous situations she finds herself in quite entertaining. There's a certain appeal to a protagonist who doesn't immediately fall into typical tropes, and I appreciated that the author attempted to create a character who felt more grounded in her responses. The European-inspired setting and the integration of magic also added to the overall appeal, creating a world that felt both familiar and fantastical.
Areas of Concern
Unfortunately, as I delved further, I began to see some of the issues that other readers have pointed out. The Crown Prince, intended as a romantic lead, doesn't seem to be developing in a satisfying way. His persistent clinging to the MC, despite her obvious disinterest, becomes more frustrating than endearing. But the biggest concern for me is the MC herself. While she starts off strong, her character development seems to stall, and she becomes increasingly passive. I found myself wanting her to take a more active role in shaping her destiny, but instead, she often relies on others to resolve her problems. I also felt that the lack of a clear romantic interest made it difficult to invest in the story's romantic subplot, as potential love interests are introduced and then quickly fade away.
Final Verdict
While "Your Highness, The Lady You’ve Abandoned IS the Saintess!" has a captivating premise and some genuinely funny moments, its flaws ultimately hold it back. The lack of character development, particularly for the MC, and the frustrating dynamics with the Crown Prince make it difficult to fully enjoy the story. I'm hoping the author will address these issues in future chapters and give the MC the agency she deserves. For now, though, I'm hesitant to recommend it wholeheartedly.
