I am a child of this house

Ongoing | Shiya,Cotun | 2018 released

I love this. It's a bit more grounded compared to other similar plots as it's not overly sugared. I love all of the characters too. And also I ship the leads so much. Ugh my heart when they kissed! The isekai plot is more just an intro and not a big thing. About: FL suffered abuse from her mother and was sold to her father who's considered not human. She learns to love herself despite her heritage and have others love her. ML is an estranged noble working as a guard for FL but he defects because he doesnt want to just be a guard to her. Issuse: Royal politics. Blood oaths.

IRIS - Lady with a Smartphone

Ongoing | yoo su wan,yoon hye yi | 2000 released

Low 4. I kinda like how the plot is going and the characters also grew on me in later chapters but there's something off about everything mainly the characters like kind of stupid sort. Anyway overall it's an ok read and the revenge is really good. About: FL went back in time and vowed revenge on those who wronged her. She also gained knowledge of her Korean past life which she uses to her advantage. ML is a royal who before sacrificed his life for FL and is now still intrigued by her due to their childhood interaction. Issue: Revenge plot. Evil empress. Betrayals

The Lady and the Beast

Ongoing | The maginot line,Hongseul | 2019 released

I love the characters but the plot is super slow. Wouldn't say boring but it's just there's not much info other than character stuff. FL is stoic and cold. ML is a puppy in both literal and not sense. We got some romance somewhere 70ish but doesn't feel there yet as it's fairly one sided. About: FL is the last of her clan. She teams up with a prince to have her revenge but eventually prince also betrays her. She reincarnated and is now married to a descendant of her love and betrayer. ML is from a family who is cursed to turn into a beast. He is married to FL then one day suddenly is able to turn human for half a day. FL is determined to help break the curse. Issue: Curses. Royal politics

Plot forward. I really like the FL here. One of the themes is gender bias and she really kicks it on the head. The other characters are also good. They don't feel flat or cliche. Plot is also a bit more grounded tho some scenes are fleshed out like the war it's still presented well to build up the characters. About: FL was sent to be a soldier in the war. She's discriminated and hated but she doesn't give up. She's captured by ML but seeing her grit asks her to be with him. FL vows to be his loyal knight. FL is really strong both mental and physical. She's naive and simple in matters of love but is always sincere. ML is the king and can't confess due to politics but he is always there for her Issue: Gender bias. Royal politics. War

A Capable Maid

Low 4. Easy to read but overall nothing catchy. I find it weird how they're not even suspicious how a maid knows so much. It takes me out of the story since it's not even irrational to suspect something but nope nobody thinks anything. FL is basically a mary sue. I do like how the plot is moving forward but it's more like a plateau than an exciting ride. About: FL is lowborn princess who is now hiding her identity as a maid coz her country got subjugated. She is given a blessing by god to be capable in a mary sue dream it style. ML is the current prince who saw her current capabilities which sparked interest and the growing into love. Issue: War prisoner dilemma. Royal politics. Ambitious characters

It's a bit of a slow story. The build up seem stretched out but also makes sense but it makes the story quite bland so overall I'm not really that into it but it's not a bad read. Meanwhile FL is still stuck at 'original plot" even tho she already changed the story which adds frustration. FL is an optimistic ditz. ML is a possessive and stoic man About: FL isekaid in a novel. She became the maid of ML who is disguised as a female due to circumstances. ML who didn't have anybody opened up to FL and fell in love with her Issue: Royal politics. Gender identity.

The Viridescent Crown

Ongoing | Siya | 2020 released

Love it so far. Both leads are great. Nobody is annoying or whiny. Other characters are nice too they have their own character but not much background to really root for them atm. Art is gorgeous. Love myself a stoic ml, tho this one is a tough read so it's not really romantic even with the tension. Fl is a bit dense but she's strong minded and gets to work. 85. About: FL isekaid in her 'novel' determined to make write the wrongs she wrote for the characters so she changes the plot but while moving along the story she ends up learning that she's actually in a real world. Now she continues to 'get along' with ML aka step brother, while feeling some feelings and worrying about their land. Issues: Heir. Abused childhood. Bankrupted land. Greedy royals

I'm a Martial Art Villainess but I'm the Strongest!

Ongoing | Wilbrite,Yuahni, Gabinam | 2000 released

86. This is good. FL is strong minded and smart. ML is a strong puppy, meek towards FL but also protective. Doberman ml. Side characters are fine though no one stands out. Jihe kinda needs to get whacked. Plot is great is more forward than romance. About: FL isekaid in a murim world. She vowed not to get the death ending in doing so unleashes the potential of her character. She meets ML along the way. She journey to grow stronger in able to save the world for the Demon sect. Issue: Typical bad guy wants to top the world. Murim politics
