It looks nice but way too messed up for my taste. I skimmed through the spoilers and I guess this somehow has a happy ending?

I didn't find any bit check the soiler forum here, someone might have linked it?

I can't say it is "happy" like the usual shoujo. like you said this story is very cruel and unlike the usual shoujo out there and the rating is also for adult audiences so I don't know what to say ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ if you don't like gora maybe you should avoid this one cause it has a lot of gora and blood and well...

Honestly, my problem isn't even gore, I'm just not a fan of villainous characters so I can't get into it. The psychological tag is what makes me not want to read this story, though. that usually means some messed up stuff happens. I may go back and read the spoilers and maybe read this through to the end sometime later, but right now I don't think I want to continue it.

yeas a lot of messed up stuff, you not wrong. it's okay not to love villainous characters, I myself getting tired of the whole new trope/cliche it becomes. I don't mind it, but yeas it becomes annoying when it the same stick again and again. I do prefer FL that are good, the problem is that most of the time they are dumb as a rock ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

I remember reading this to 67 and paused because I was getting a little irritated for a number of reasons. Mostly because of this old cliche, where any significant character either loves the fl/hates her, and it bothered me how she said she absolutely disliked the prince just before he shows up and it turns out he's a bad guy so we hate him too. He could have been a descent person, there's nothing wrong with preferring a second male lead to a perfectly normal first male lead.
Like was it really necessary to make the fl and ml enemies with the og leads to create drama? I wasn't into it, but I'll go back and read it some more now that there more chapters. From all the complaints I feel it'll be irritating for a while before it's over
I read the spoilers for this novel because I couldn't get myself to read it. It's kind of bloody and at the same time less bloody than you'd think from just reading he description (does this make sense?).
Ml is the brother, but they're not actually blood related. I don't know if she read the novel she reincarnated into but I think she might have known they're not blood related, and he knew too? But she finds this out later.
If the story isn't your thing, then your emotions are valid, just don't read the story. I learned a while ago to ignore some parts of fiction that I would never be okay with in real life, and I've read stories with actual incest so I'm pretty okay with this story.
Yea it said that she read the story and knows they arent related
