Didn’t really like it and why. This is a whole ass essay.

Didn’t really like it. First of all, her name is Blondina (I can’t) and she isn’t really doing anything? When she was a child she was more assertive and smart, but then when she grows up she’s the damsel in distress and whenever something happens, she SAYS that she has to do something but then doesn’t do much. Amon is the one to always save her in the end.

Secondly, I don’t really like their relationship, it’s not very healthy. It’s cute if you read it but then you realise he is very possessive (and even when they weren’t even dating) and it always feels like he is another baby, not her husband. They don’t have good communication and again, the whole jealousy thing is very bad.

Also, the whole thing where he lost his memory was so weird, it didn’t have to be part of the story. I don’t even know why they included that.

I guess the prince had a nice development, but they didn’t really show it that much. Father didn’t really do a good job in the past and now he has MUCH to do to repent for that. This also may be why I’m not that mad at the princess (the villain). She wanted affection, there wasn’t someone to teach her right from wrong and she ended up desperate and afraid she’s too far gone to change her plans. Also there was a mother somewhere, right? I’m not remembering wrong? We have no idea where she is now, she hasn’t been mentioned at all. Maybe I missed something.

All in all, would not read again.

    i agree with almost everything except what you said about their relationship and about blondina, so i want to ATTEMPT to change your mind. he didn’t do anything bad and if anything it’s for comedy reasons why he overreacts a little when a man tries to court HIS WIFE. he’s allowed to want attention from his wife too! he plays with the kids and scolds them, and plays the role of a loving husband. it’s not toxic in the slightest. also blondina stayed a strong lead. she fought back multiple times! remember, she hasn’t had much training in self defense and is just doing what she knows. she never waited for anyone to rescue her and did as much as she could. amon was usually the one to save her cause he was in closest in the vicinity and loves her so much he couldn’t stand her being hurt. it had nothing to do with blondina not being strong.

    Don’t worry, I appreciate the response!

    It’s been a long time since I’ve read this and I’ve forgotten many things but the main issue I had with their relationship was Amon before they started dating. I didn’t like how he tried to influence her feelings and got rid of other boy’s presents for her. She had a right to choose who she wanted and he took that right from her by basically hindering the other’s attempts. It’s one of those things that as you get older you notice the toxicity of it (not to say that no one is toxic. You can be toxic without even realising it, but when you start noticing it it’s hard to ignore). She was a teenager so it makes sense how she didn’t have a problem with it, but I would have liked to see a more mature approach.

    Also about her, it makes sense how she couldn’t do much about the situation she was thrown into, but I’m more frustrated with the author. When she was a child, there were instances where she showed her intelligence, but after that, the author chose situations where she could do nothing. It is nice to see someone rescuing their loved one, but I would have liked to see her take action to get herself out of the situation. It was a wasted opportunity on the author’s part, because they made her a great protagonist and then erased all her traits.
