Don't really like any of the characters. The artwork is good. I can't bring myself to get past chapter 13 . First the FL was brought to this house to pretend to be a boy. She meets the ML and first off what occured the first time was dumb because the fault is on the ML for holding onto the metal of the gun that gets hot. The brother of the FL is sickly which seems like it came from genitics and just flared up and the mother of the FL was blamed for it. completely irrational. Unless they pull a plot twist of mother poisoned her own son, which seems like it wouldn't be the case considering how irrational she is acting. Also if the son was poisoned why haven't they gotten the antidote yet, so this seems to be just a disability. The ML in my eyes is mediocre. He's actractive and that is just about it. It seems the FL just wants to regain her identity as a woman to pursue the ML, and nothing else. Not to enjoy tea time, having female friends, etc. just the male lead. If the FL's "family" really cared about their image they would tell her news of what is happening in the social world, just so she does not embarress them. I do not like the prince and what he holds as his belief of everything will be his one day. Everything regarding the interactions between the ML and FL was just horny in the best way I can describe it. There is nothing else between them but feeling attracted to each other. Could be better in the later chapters but I am not going to read it. This review is only up to chapter 13, I will not finish reading this

Let me try to sum it up succinctly. Camellia is a Mary Sue.  She can do literally -everything-. All the men in this story are complete garbage.  Claude is the biggest control freak I've ever read about and has the personality of a door stop.  Prince Ian was my favorite because at least he's the most honest.  Kiernan, her brother, does absolutely nothing other than get engaged to the princess.  The parents are trope trash and the plot of the bad guys is just weird.  Camellia's obsession with her mother leads to dumb side plots that don't really add anything to the overall story. I'm honestly surprised that this novel was even published.  If you liked it, then you'll like this manga because it follows the novel almost exactly.

DAMN. This manhwa is pure gold! The artwork is fantastic! The characters, Camellia looks so cute, even as a boy. And we have another Claude in the house! <3 I find the story very interesting and there were definitely some parts that were fairly emotional. Overall, this manhwa is so powerful and I'd definitely recommend this Manta original to any manhwa readers, new and old.
