List of empowered women. These women take control of their own lives. They are independent, and don't need people to save them. 

Romance? Not a priority/non existent.
Freedom? 100% hell yeah.

The art is actually impeccable? The effort went into this manhwa is wild.
Haven't gotten too far in this yet, but MC is a badass and clever woman. We can tell she is calculating in order to remove herself from danger and gain power.

Honestly, this novel is kinda stereotypical but the art is so gorgeous.
: haven't gotten too far, but seems like this will be slow burn

MC is not empowered in the sense of political power and independence. She is very much stuck with her abusive family and their influence. However, she empowers herself by standing up even if she faces the consequences. She values her pride more than her safety and life. Interesting MC and interesting story.

: pretty romantic early on. ngl she needs a man to stand on her own so i would rec something else if you're not into that

Really enjoyed this story. The story portrays certain emotions and feelings really well for the reader. I felt the pain the MC and ML during their philosophical thoughts. I feel like the subtle symbolism really added to the story. MC personality is also really, really unique. Would read.

: becomes romance early on, but really enjoyed it. She's strong, but she's not super? independent (so move on if that's not your thing)

National fighting champion dies saving a girl committing suicide. Soul is transferred(?) to the girl. Funny as hell and action packed. Looking forward to where the story is going in the future.

: No romance as of yet. There are a lot of people interested in MC as a girl, but I doubt actual romance will happen.

I'll Be The Matriarch In This Life

For some reason I held off reading this story for a long time? I was actually kind of surprised that I enjoyed this story when I read it. Basically MC was wronged in both lives and after travelling to the past is determined to become a matriarch. The side characters have very fleshed out personalities and make this reading more enjoyable.

: ml is obvious, but I doubt romance will actually happen for a while though because MC will probably be young for SOOO many chapters

MC disguises herself as a man and becomes an expert swordsman. MC also becomes emperor's right hand man. Girl is strong af. Also surprised to see representations of LGBT relationships in this straight historical romance novel.
Was kinda annoyed how it became a fantasy to just romance, but oh well

: Not really romance in the beginning, but then A LOT of romance afterward. It goes from badass action and little romance to almost all romance, constant pining, and a n g s t.
