Qishi Huanxiang Ye Manhua
This manga is very enjoyable but also very lackluster at the same time. It was a good read when I was first starting out, but now that I've navigated the waters of manga & webtoons for a bit, I've come to notice the many shortcomings this piece has. The ending was also underwhelming as a whole.
Watashi ni xx Shinasai!
I've dropped this manga for various reasons. I don't particularly like it when a main character uses blackmail to get what they want at the expense of another person when there is it is for the material gain of the blackmailer. When I say this, I mean it in the sense that it's only for the gain of something that could A. be dealt with in other ways B. unnecessary for another person to solve. The things the MC asks of the ML, in the beginning, are uncalled for and could be called sexual harassment. Not my cup of tea.
Barajou No Kiss
This story is very mleh and predictable. Not much is really new in terms of troupes/plot development, most of what happened is something that is predictable. I found nothing really unique to this story so I ended up not even finishing it all the way through and/or skimming/skipping large chunks of the story to get to the meat of the matter. Not a fan on this one unfortunately

The Monster Duchess and Contract Princess
I was going to wait to write my small review for this until I finished reading but honestly I’ve fallen in love with it. I really appreciate the familial aspect of this story and while not new, is executed beautifully. The FL has strong character and continues with her beliefs and learns from her mistakes. It’s refreshing to see a FL who isn’t perfect at everything and shows some character growth along the way. The supporting characters are also detailed and all of the ones introduced so far further the story as a whole and aren’t there for comedic relief or for trivial reasons. The story itself is written very well with no plot holes to my understanding and also interesting enough to stand out in an over saturated genre. Hopefully this story continues and doesn’t turn into just another noble love story.
