I like that the ml came around to his senses..leave that lovesick bitch be..how can og mc leave everything behind and make a contract with the devil/demon over a boy who killed your family and made your life miserable..she left behind her swordsmanship cuz she heard that he(the og ml) did not like girls who can fight..she was a swordsmaster but she left it behind..now she lives in the body of the princess who is engaged with that bastard who she believes he loves..now that's where the mc comes in, she possesses the body of that lovesick bitch now having her talents..being good to the ml, who was the second ml in the story she read, a butler who had a one-sided unrequited love towards og fl..he finds out that mc is not og fl and is in a dilemma at first, cuz he a tower master on the side being raised by a dragon and later abandoned, he is hella OP but seeing someone who loves him sincerely and genuinely cares for him made him fall in love with mc too..he no longer cares about the og fl..good riddance..Mc doesn't know that he knows about her identity and keeps it a secret that og fl now possesses the body of the princess..so a whole mess...they got married but it's not happily ever after atleast not yet..with the demon still at play..but yeah I dropped it...cuz it be basic..

Kay..so this takes place in a historical setting..A Korean historical manhwa..the mc is incredibly naive and ml is a beast in the literal sense..not the body but mind, temperament and strength wise..also mc has a protective family who loves her and dote on her..however she fell prey to that ml..he hot or whatever..the story can be read once in a while but not my cuppa tea..mmhh mc's previous life was hell with her hubby and child dying and her being blamed for it by her in-laws..rough but I hoped we would get family bonding time and it be a family themed story but alas it being a romance kind of interrupts it

What Kind of Empress Is This

Ongoing | 전현서,은영 | 2000 released

The MC is smart and strong in a unique way..she works at a call center of some sort so talking is her forte..she has a lot of patience..gurl how I envy you..now she is in a sort of medieval society so time travel of some sorts??..She is now the empress cuz the ml being an emperor needs her as he is quite tactless and deaf to his people's plight..so she a mediator of some sorts..I like it..can't read it for a long time as it doesn't sustain my internet the first few chapters were nice:)

The Broken Ring : This Marriage Will Fail Anyway

Ongoing | Kimchacha,Chokam | 2019 released

Read the comments and passed on it due to the contents it described and I read full spoilers too so..I pretty much knew how it would go down..my sister read it and I peeked here and there on her phone so the art is decent..the ml is a Playboy so he fucks anyone with a pussy..he thinks mc doesn't know about his scandalous ways but when he found out that mc knows about it and infact doesn't care..he is upset..what a manchild..mc has gone through multiple lives, one where she is the belle of the kingdom and gets married to the crown prince who is a fuckboy as well so to noone's surprise he has herpes yet forces himself on mc while being aware of his disease so she had about 3 miscarriages and killed herself..talk about bad luck ooff..another life where she seduces the painter/artist and run away with him, has a child and later kills the child and herself(her hubby was killed by her bro too)...and NOW she decides to dress like a nun, black clothes with a low bun (no strands)..chooses the current ml and doesn't care about his reputation and if he sleeps around or not..so manipulation and cheating warning tags everyone Update : I'mma read it now (12/08/22)..still the same day, I finished upto ch14 on 2:53 am

Have seen some panels here and there..my sister have read it and she recommends it..she is a bit of a lucky reader herself so I trust her..but the mc doesn't se to be smart and is a happy go lucky type of mc so I.. feel like it wouldn't be my cuppa tea..hmm the fact that she calls him father also doesn't sit right with me..maybe when I actually read it and get the inside joke I will find it funny and comical but not now..a must read later for me

The Villainess Reverses the Hourglass

Ongoing | 산소비 | 2019 released

The title 'villainess' is totally earned..there is no irony to that title..she is vengeful, selfish, unapologetic, manipulative and a bit of a seductress as well. So like the title says she reverses time by using the hourglass which appeared before her in her moment of death being used by her step sis..She on the execution hall regretted her actions of malice towards her step sis but turned out she has been dancing on top of her palm for the longest time so in this life she vows to destroy her and everything she cares for..her mom who died under mysterious cause in her lastlife seems to be the doing of Mielle(step-sis)as well, she was a commoner born to a prostitute mother so she is looked down upon by society..she is incredibly beautiful and gorgeous as well taking after her mother so many men vied for her affection..but as later revealed to us by her, she says they only liked her for her looks and did not want anything serious..She has golden hair shining brightly and radiantly in contrast to Mielle's platinum and straight hair, so while MC was in the face kind of beauty, Mielle was more of a subdued beauty it seems like...also ml is not as smart as other ml's in this kind of manhwa but I love that although some comments call him an idiot..I think he is quite smart..also there seems to be some kind of a connection between her and ml in her lastlife as well as now..Oscar the fiancee of Mielle was a target for MC so she tried to steal him by acting pitiful and fragile..I mean it worked and the way they treat her in their household is a testament to it...he falls in love with her but is powerless against his sister who is ml's fiancee and a powerful person who thinks Mielle is an useful tool to accomplish their needs..she also thinks mc has dirty blood..I feel for Oscar truly..mc knows the future so she is able to know the trends of the market and help out with her step-father's business which she later finds out that she was never credited for, she grows angry and doesn't want to provide any more input..also the fact that he keeps trying to match her up with what they presumed to be a merchant who frequents their house angers her..he does it so openly as well so her mom is also not pleased with it...MC is also quite emotional and imperfect which I love..but the fact that she uses the hourglass so recklessly irks me so much even tho she seems to understand it's consequences..that's it for my review

The Taming of The Tyrant

Ongoing | Yusoi | 2021 released

I am really sorry..I think I mixed up my review for this with 'I raised an obsessive servant' so there's that..look at my review in that if u want to know how I feel about this.. 'The story being set in historic times makes so much sense..what I mean is the characters interaction support that...the title lives up to its story... the synopsis is so enticing...I tried reading in Wattpad but the translation sucked so I eventually forgot about it...so glad they picked it up as it was just a promo back then...the mc is so refreshing from the other MCs so I like it..no complains but I can't give it five stars cuz I prefer to just read stories easier to digest but it feels like I have to make an effort to read this..I like it when I start ofcourse but I'm not like...Has this been updated yet? and check it everyday...I'm just like "This has been updated? Guess I'll read it"..does that make sense?' Here ya go....

Light & Shadow

Complete | Ryu hyang,Hee won | 2000 released

My sister loves this..she tells me not to judge a book by it's cover..the mc is incredibly op it seems..she has a secret and can utilise lots of different weapons as well..so the one chapter I read and later dropped was a bit of a misdirect it seems..my fault for not having much patience..they seem to have a son too

Doctor Elise

Complete | Mini,Yuin | 2000 released

I loved this along with my sister at first..it was so new and interesting for us that she was originally from historic time then reincarnated into modern time then back to her og life again..using her knowledge as a doctor to help out..I loved the gag about doctors having terrible handwriting so that was the only reason she did not get perfect score for her exam as her writing was incomprehensible..but as it went on, it seemed like it lost steam and the author just wants to milk it out as much as possible..imo it is imp to know when to stop and it should have stopped a long time ago..the tag should be completed..also ml isn't my cuppa tea. I like the best friend more.

As You Wish, Prince

Another case of mc being transmigrated to her work(book)or reincarnated..also love that she has op power as the creator of the world .the fact that anything she writes becomes a reality..she is so human and love that..love that we see the villain side of the story, why he was used as a stepping stone for someone else's success..It was so unfair for him..love mc taking ownership of her actions..also it seems that not everything is under her control and that there seems to be others like her who has been transmigrated..I think I liked it when I read it..it was a long time ago tho. Update : So I reread it and got upto ch50, I think I was upto ch35 in my first read..not sure. But my feelings towards this have changed and not for the better. Everything here feels childish and it feels like I'm watching a play for kindergarten. The actions of the characters are so predictable and the characters themselves are so generic and plain. The whole idea of a creator being in the world she created via book could be so op was interesting and made sense. But I don't like the MC and I don't like how the story is going. Perret, the ML's aid has taken a liking to the MC and gosh that is so shoujo logic. And to add on to that, the ML's little sister in turns like Perrret so a whole ass mess will ensue and then be gone like it never existed. It's a cheap trick used by novice writers to create drama and tension in the story to keep the reader's interest that ultimately does not do anything to the plot. The og ml's fl is so goddamn impudent slapping a soldier cuz she didn't salute her and made a whole damn speech about being 'not like the other girls', sounds nothing like a girl crush but a woke "feminist". The og ml is a prick and a goddamn child who is so emotional and needy for attention, his past life wasn't that bad..com'on u can't act like the most miserable person in the planet cuz of that. The princess who is the typical villainess is so annoying, her treating her step sister like trash abusing her left and right then getting mad and feeling indignant cuz she attracted the attention of the Emperor. She some generic blonde bimbo. Her approaching the ML and her whole speech screams entitled in big bold letters. So I have to drop this. And I don't want to sound petty but the art style is lacking in so many areas and just because u darken the characters faces doesn't give u an excuse to call that expressions..u have to be more detailed and creative than that in this day and age. The action scenes made me laugh I'll tell u that
