I've read up to Ch 26, and could not believe this hadn't been reviewed yet!
I'm no wordsmith, but heres what I think.
The art is really clean, simple looking rounded style, but you still get a LOT of detail and expression from each character and scene. Because of the medicinal nature of the dad's job, it frequently involves plant types, and the author doesn't skimp on the detail of, or the science behind, each plant.
the characters are pretty well rounded. the children don't feel too sophisticated, but also feel very real in their depth. Shirou is almost four as the story begins so he's old enough
...
to start thinking about complex things even if he can't vocalize it the way adults do, and you really see that in the writing. The dad is also really relatable and well rounded. he's flawed, but the actions he takes don't seem to be shallow or without cause.
Story flow feels natrual, is casual enough to breeze through all 26 chapters overnight, but still well written enough to make this weepywoman cry like seven or eight times before falling asleep.... (it's so good though. the author is exceptionally skilled at writing heartwrenching scenes that keep you really sucked in without making them so solemn or dark that you have to take a break from reading to pull your headspace back to a healthy place)
honestly, this is just so cuuuuuuuuute
