Yane's manga / #Harlequin(81)

My rating: 7,5/10 I liked it. The characters were true to themselves. I especially liked the ML, he was a sweetheart. But the aunt was a bit overprotective and the FL too dependent on her. SECRET IDENTITY, WALLFLOWER Raised by her 2 aunts, the FL is known as a uptight wallflower in her village. But at night, she dresses up and works as a waitress. One night, the ML meets her and falls for her night self.

My rating: 6,3/10 I really hated the ML. It's unrealistic how someone like him can realise his feelings and become a good husband at the end. He's a control freak who forces the FL to do what he wants. Just no! REUNION, CHILD, JERK ML Many years ago, they were in a passionate relationship, but when she told him about her pregnancy, he threw her away. Due to the shock, she had a miscarriage and left. Years later, they meet again. When the ML realises that their child's twin survived, he comes at her again.

My rating: 8,6/10 I really liked it. The FL was refreshingly strong and honest and thought the ML was a bit sexist at the beginning, he got better. Their relationship developing from disdain to love was well executed. SOLDIER, HISTORICAL, STRONG FL After her brother's death on the battlefield, the FL only has his brother's superior's promise to help her if she needs it when her family arrives at her mansion and tries to take everything from her. But when the ML arrives rather late, things have gotten worse, so he and his mother decide to take her in to support her.

My rating: 7,7/10 It promoted this old-fashioned image of femininity, but the story was fun to read. I liked that you also get the ML's pov in more detail. BET, PROPOSAL, GLOW UP, FRIENDS When her male childhood friend says that no man would ever marry her, she makes a bet with him announcing that she will find someone to propose to her in the next months. But as she starts to change, her friend starts to feel drawn to her.

My rating: 8,5/10 I liked it. The FL was strong and confident while the ML was considerate and able to admit his weakness. There should be more couples like them. COWORKERS, MATCHMAKING Bc her father wants her to marry one of the employees of his company, he made a list of suitable candidates. But she doesn't want to marry them, so she plays cupid for them until only one man is left whom she'll go on a business trip with.

My rating: 8,2/10 It was really good. The FL was intelligent and strong and I liked how much the ML cared for her. Also, the idea of how they got back together was interesting. MARRIAGE, CHILD, REUNION When she hears that she's still married to the man she left 7 years ago, she decides to request his sperm from the sperm bank as she wants a child. But when he hears of this, he takes the chance to win her back.

My rating: 7,3/10 It's good that they actually communicate. He's a bit of a jerk bc of his rather extreme childhood trauma and she's so kind as to marry him even though he said he didn't love her. The artist struggled a bit drawing women's faces. PREGNANCY, PLAYBOY, TRAUMA One year after her husband's death, the company's playboy, the vice president, gets interested in the president's secretary. But when he finally proposes to her, he says that they could never have children.

My rating: 7,8/10 It was a nice read. The FL was really likeable, but the ML did a 180 for the worse after he misunderstood her intentions and acted like a childish jerk. I mean, he didn't even let her explain ... PRINCE, CHILD, MISUNDERSTANDING When she goes on vacation to forget her ex, the FL meets a beautiful man she thinks is a gigolo and spends 3 days with him. But he turns out to be a prince and she finds herself pregnant after returning to America.

My rating: 7,6/10 It was ok. The FL and the ML were both likable, but I found his daughter to be much more interesting. There was some drama, but it all got resolved a bit too quickly at the end. MEMORY LOSS, DETECTIVE One day, a disheveled woman appeares before a detective claiming to have lost her memory. She only had his business card left. He takes her in and tries to help her, but there seems to be someone who's after her life.

My rating: 6,7/10 I don't know, I just found it quite boring. It's not that the characters were really annoying, the plot was simply not interesting. Nothing really happened. DIVORCE, VILLA, NEW START After her divorce, an ex celebrity moves into the villa she got from her former husband wanting to start anew. There she meets the villa's former owner and falls for him.
