Bit of a rushed ending. The sister made such an appearance at the end to amount to absolutely nothing lol
Overall a nice and fun read. Wasn’t overly attached to the story but enjoyable nonetheless for the less
Hmm so far it’s ok
What I like is that they don’t lose sight of the revenge plot. Revenge is at forefront which is great. I also like that the kids of the bad people aren’t bad themselves. It’s a cliche I dislike so I do enjoy that the kids are their own people (especially the adult ones) and they are not a mini me.
What I find the biggest letdown are the villains. They’re actually stupid. Not smart at all. Like, how did the empress manage to overthrow the emperor and convince him into genocide of those who are practically saints??? I thought she was conniving and intelligent and plays 3D chess which is how. But so far, boring, stupid with one brain cell swimming around in her head. Her ‘big ideas’ are actually a joke.
Same goes for the mother in law. She helped the empress but also daft.
The wife is probably the most ok. She isn’t that brainy, but at least she isn’t dumb.
MC is ok. She at least does think for herself. Male lead is mediocre in my opinion. They tried to give him depth but it feels lacklustre.
Overall, it’s an ok read. Easy to read and interesting enough to keep going but unless you are having a night of ‘dunno what to read’, I would just move on.
