Maha's manga / #mystery(20)

The pace of this story is quite fast, a bit too fast for the various plot points that happen and I also have a hard time with the way the FL’s actions in the first arc because it puts a child’s life in serious danger. Over looking the child endangerment, the rest of the novel movies fluidly and has many interesting characters with diverse personalities and backgrounds. Another drawback to this piece is that the ending seemed a tad rushed to me, but not so much as to leave a bad aftertaste. Definitely something I’d consider reading again.

One of my all time favorite reads, this is truly a gem and I would highly recommend it to anyone. Even if you read it for just the art, I feel like there's is something to love about this piece. Our MC is truly trying her best, but in her first life just lacked the right tools and parenting skills for her true feelings to come across in that lifetime. Because of a tragedy, she was able to right the wrongs of the past and carefully raise the children of the household and even become like a true family. I love that this story doesn't need a ML to have a solid storyline and that this isn't about finding love necessarily. It's about the complicated relationships of what family could've been back in that time period. It wasn't too out there to sometimes have a stepmother who is similar in age to the oldest child of that family. And from there starts the complicated life of these characters as they work out how to love one another and have a healthy family relationship.
