This story has a lot of potential, but sadly the author's inexperience drags it down. The beginning was really good and caught the my interest right away but after 30 ish chapters it was very clear that the author only had a vauge idea of how the story would go about, and threw in a bunch of boring sub plots in the middle, to drag out the ending for as long as possible. I really liked the characters and their dynamics but there is only so much boring completely irrelevant stuff you can watch people do before you start skimming through panels.

Like you know the author's run out of ideas when you see a new charter introduced and immediately think "villian of the week" energy. I just wanted there to be more focus on an over arcing story and the main couple's relationship was too ambiguous to hold that weight. 

Then the Author started dipping the Protagonist in disgusting amounts of Mary Sue sauce so I stopped reading.

It's really great to have a FL who is quick witted 👍 I like the fact that both are independent and have ambitions 😁 You might have read a lot of noblesse kind of webtoons, and this one might lack a bit of excitement but the story is still enjoyable 😉 Hope the FL will achieve what she wants and pay back to the ones that deserve it, and I also expect more development on the FL-ML relationship 😁

This story is SUCH a cliche with plot holes and characters who don't stick to what they say...and yet the reason I love it so much is the way it was executed. The way this story was told tactically and the MLs were made somewhat clever or at least able to make decisions themselves was what made it fun to read.

I won't say that it has a unique plot or unique character...it does not have humour and even though the art is good (reminds me of stepmother's marchen) there are many things that happen that are contradict the previous events. Still this Manhwa (it's a Manhwa, right?) is just fun to read. I don't know why I gave it this rating but definately try the first 3 chapters before you decide to read it or drop it.

Man, Raeliana really inspired this one huh. Even the main leads look the same! The personalities are a little different but that's to be expected. If you loved Raeliana, you should give this one a try. It doesn't pack the same kick or throw the same punch the way Raeliana did, but the flow of the story and how it was structured is alright. 

Characters don't just lie down and take a beating; they take control of the story and influence the way the world around them looks. The female lead was originally a Mary Sue type of character but upon being reincarnated, she decides to be more aggressive with how she treats life, in order to avoid the sad life that she's lived in the past. 

This is the equivalent of eating okay food - not bad, not your favorite, just enough to sate your appetite and that is A-OK.

Reviewed at Chapter 57.

It was enjoyable but somehow the plot kept dragging till i got bored as if i was watching the Bleach anime (too many fillers). I was waiting for FL to reveal her secret to ML but i just cant keep wasting my time. Last read chapter: 100. Love the fl and ml relationship. They are so cute together. Might give another chance in the future but it will still be in my least fav list. What a shame.. I thought it will be good because the chapters has exceeded 100
