I wish I can give this higher than a 5* rating. The plot follows your stereotypical lineup for a redemption arc/story for the main lead by leading a better life, but her actions are smart and just calculated enough to not hinder story development. Needless to say, depending on how much you like redemption-esque stories, this one will fill you with a sense of satisfaction from seeing her actions. She obviously has a penchant for vengeance, but keeps herself in check and acts accordingly so she isn't lost in it. On top of this, she understands that her past self was naive and that she should learn how to live her own life with her own choices instead of forcing herself to meet everyone's expectations whether it be a woman/summoner/wife. Pretty art to top it all off and this is a pretty solid series. I'd definitely reread this again after it finishes just to take more of it in. TLDR: Common trope with a good story and good art. Worth the read.

This is more of a 4.5/5 but is leaning towards a 5/5. It was a good read because it wasn't all hung up on the theme of omegaverse like most other omegaverse series are. This was a genuine romance novel that dealt with a set scenario. It had good pacing and the characters were allowed to develop on their own. The theme of omegaverse was used as an accessory and not as the main plotline. The only issue I had with this was that it was too short.

Omegaverse story that doesn't involve rape left and right and an overbearing setting about gender discrimination. Plot is very short, but sweet and real at the same time. Art style is very nice and clean. Deserves the 5/5.

Lady Baby

Ongoing | JU Hyeon, Pingmin | 2000 released

While this isn't a bad story, it wasn't really that good either. The build up in the beginning was perfect, albeit the writing got sloppy over time. The author themselves made Calliope someone who is trying to play smart to take advantage of her newfound chance, but at the same time, somehow chose to make Calliope arguably extremely dumb for not considering her situation. If a 20+ year old woman went back in time, you'd think she's realize that she's only like 5 or 6 years old and should watch her actions to not stand out. Standing out the way she is now (up to chapter 98) is bound to draw unwanted attention. It's frustrating because it's like watching a brilliant character you were falling in love with lose their shine because the writing was starting to go from "stay smart, strong and survive" to "let's do everything and anything without regarding the consequences." If you like full color art webtoons with a touch on romance, fluffy family love and mystery, this is a good series. On the surface at least.

The Duchess' 50 Tea Recipes

This is SO cute. It's a very fluffy and wholesome story that covers different bases. Main lead has various "arcs" where she redeems herself, gradually has her own character development that is invoked by her passion, and more. 13/10. Also never seen so many people drink so much tea.
