## My Thoughts on After Marrying the School Grass "After Marrying the School Grass" promised a fluffy, low-angst romance, and for the most part, it delivered. I went in expecting a sweet story, and I wasn't disappointed. It's the kind of novel you pick up when you want something light and comforting, and that's exactly what I got. ### First Impressions The premise is simple: arranged marriage leading to unexpected love. It's a trope I enjoy, and this novel executes it well. The initial chapters hooked me with the dynamic between the two leads. One is seemingly straight and a bit resistant, while the other is head-over-heels from the start. It made me curious how their relationship would naturally develop. ### What Works Well I particularly enjoyed the pacing. The male lead's pursuit of the MC is gradual and believable, allowing the MC to realize his feelings organically. Their chemistry is undeniable, making their interactions genuinely heartwarming. The story shines in its portrayal of a healthy relationship. Once the MC accepts his feelings, they communicate well and are openly affectionate. I found it refreshing to read a romance where both characters are equally invested and not afraid to show it. The side characters also add a lot of charm to the story. The roommates bring humor and warmth, creating a lively and supportive environment. The family conflict, while present, doesn't overwhelm the narrative. It's handled in a way that adds a touch of realism without dragging the story down. ### Areas of Concern While I enjoyed the novel overall, there were a few minor drawbacks. The plot is definitely not the focus. Some readers might find it a bit *too* straightforward and lacking in depth. I also felt that the ML's initial "act" could have been handled better. It felt a bit contrived and didn't quite align with his character later on. A few plot points, like the ML's dead, remained unresolved, which was a bit disappointing. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Some readers may want to skip this section to avoid spoilers. One minor plot point that raised an eyebrow for me was why the ML lied about his leg when MC first asked him to go register the marriage. ### Final Verdict Despite a few minor flaws, "After Marrying the School Grass" is a delightful read. It's a sweet, fluffy romance with lovable characters and minimal angst. If you're looking for a lighthearted story to brighten your day, I'd definitely recommend giving this one a try. Just don't expect a complex plot – this story is all about the heartwarming relationship between the two leads.
