I happen to like slice of life but even I'll admit there were some parts that were kinda boring in this veeerry slow burn novel. Her husband only appeared maybe 5 times within 100 chapters and he pmo every single time! Pushy, arrogant and annoying prick who's also inconsiderate. Not the worst but also unlikable imo. I dropped bc I frowned every time he appeared and she honestly has no chemistry with him. All their interactions are basically her making concessions to his sudden requests. The audacity? The entitlement?! Miss me with that.
There's much more focus on world building but some of it is boring bc it's just vague details or general knowledge we already know and the high praise of it all gives me secondhand embarrassment. I did actually enjoy the side characters pov on their lifestyle tho. It was so cozy!
Another thing that made me uncomfortable was the wizard guy (an og love interest) starts spending a LOT of time with Rena (y'know the child!!!) bc "her perspective is fresh". It wasn't such a big deal at first but then we're told they spent of time together alone even outside scenes written and FL even questions this (she had no idea). He saids it's platonic but I feel like there's implications there and it makes me sick! It became weird bc author made it weird! They could've just written it as a "she's a promising talent I'd like to mentor and sometimes learn from" but no, they're joined at the hip day and night and he even sleeps over? Wtf? I had to drop
