Beauty and the Beasts
Hesitant to read at first but other than the strange beauty standards with scars, freckles, birthmarks, and even weight I kinda like that in a way women have more power and are respected especially with the men to women ratio bein unbalanced. When they say beast men they really mean that though what with the territory conflicts, desire for reproduction, I'm not a fan of eating someone else's cubs even if they won't stay off my land (sorry Curtis), the power ranking... many things are discussed about wild animals that I just remembered or learned. In this civilization men are the ones that get discarded if they find the right solo partner but women actually practice polygamy...I was shook when the level of connection between the women and her partner means they can be imparted with the powers of their husbands. However, it doesn't look like many women have strong connections with their husbands and beautiful women aren't as common. What confuses me is why don't the beast women have ears and tails like the males? I've gotta say I think that maybe feral beast men aren't as bad as the rumors say because I love Curtis...he definitely doesn't treat Bai poorly once he understands warm blooded mammals better and for the most part that instinctive fear of snakes fades with his maturity and sweetness but he does have a fiercely predatory side as well not to mention his jealously. Parker isn't bad he's kinda cute and thoughtful...Winston,Harvey, and Muiri grow on me more and more but you've gots to have serious bravery and power to go up against Curtis...as sweet as he can be is literally deadly! I didn't think I get so caught up in this beastly world but I'm interested in what the merfolk look like, only downside is that if you get pregnant it's just you and your husbands handling the labor unless there are complications plus you've got to get inventive with cooking and clothes.
College Student Empress
First thank you to the translators/uploaders. I'm just thinking to myself: 1) The reincarnated Empress is like many of the reincarnated heroines I've seen...completely different from the past version...so if she was indeed evil or up to no good then didn't Mr. Emperor read the given the manual for people who nearly die? It says give her a trial period to prove she isn't scheming and is indeed a better person or keep from killing said person for a few weeks to find out. 2) Didnt the Empress come from a gentle scholarly tribe, what did she do to deserve death...exist? That's what I'm thinking because Emperor didn't get a say in the manner...I think the only person he got to choose is his favorite concubine who he has unrequited love for. 3) I think the reincarnated empress actually got all the adventure she could bargain for with all these assassination attempts since she would date guys in the past and get bored after 3 months, but honestly the Emperor is still quite childish even though he's in the seat of power...all he can think about is getting the woman who sees him as a little brother to fall for him just a little and see him something more...that would be sweet if he didn't try to kill the reincarnated Empress all the time who actually sees him as a man and maybe be happy that she got a friend. 4) I find the best parts are when the Empress so easily outsmarts the Emperor, teases him, and can actually defend herself against the assasination attempts. 5)Emperor got his own taste of Karma...he succeeded in killing the former Empress for whatever reasons he had, but now he has deal with a new kind of Empress he doesn't know how to handle...so in your face Mr.Emperor...maybe your lady love would see you better if got a tiny bit more mature and actually try to play nice with the Empress for once your blood pressure demands it and your too young to have that many veins poppin all over the place. I look forward to character growth when I can say I remember when... ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
