Over-cumming writer’s block
you know what i don't know if i want to keep reading this. the h scenes are good and if it was JUST that, or a little shorter maybe i'd like it more. but as it stands it's focusing more and more on the plot and the characters interpersonal relationships and i'm finding i don't like EITHER the mc or the ML on like a personal level. the mc's obtuseness is genuinely grating at this point and the ml is kinda a dick. the 2nd ml is the only one i genuinely like but... well he's obviously not even going to gte laid, let alone win her heart >_> so like overall! good smut but the plot pissed me right off so I'm dipping out for now. got up to ch 11
I'll Be The Matriarch In This Life
I Was Born as the Second Daughter
A Night With The Emperor
reading the official ups on webtoon but it's pissing me off so fucking bad i had to come here and comment <3 so far the emperor has done nothing to endear himself to me as a love interest. i resent him for pushing his one sided affection on her and allowing her to continue misunderstanding what happened between them. It pisses me off that she isn't like.. running away. like girl leave the country I would NOT put up with this shit. ALSO! specific things that pissed me off list :) 1) mc very much does not want to be empress but her friend is all "so you don't want to be empress buuuut do you like him? tehe" as if those are separate issues! it's stupid to act like liking or not liking him in the crux of the problem, if she marries him she will be empress so her rejection on those grounds is entirely valid regardless of how she feels!!!! 2) everyone in the webtoons comments is all "waahh he's so nice i knew he wouldn't sleep with someone whos drunk unlike some OTHER people we could mention" and it makes me so mad!!! both because i think getting sloshed and having a one night stand is such a meet cute and you can pry it out of my cold dead hands but also! he keeps fucking spying on her!! i feel like stalking is way worse then sleeping with someone whos a little tipsy but thats just me i guess >_> it pisses me off every time he actives his magic spy camera he has on her at all times like mind your own business Bart D:< 3) this happens ch 11 and is the specific thing that sent me into a boiling rage so hard i came here to write all this haha. ML was spying on mc (as he's want to do, fucking creep) and he saw her going to a...? hookup bar? speed dating space? idk i haven't finished the chapter. and his exact words are "Penelope, do you dislike me that much? You have me, but-" Bitch I'm going to kill you!! All she has done every time you see her is reject you!! even if it's so obvious to the reader that she maybe likes you a little i GUESS you don't know that you're just assuming shit on your own!! explode into a thousand pieces i hate you also the side couple sucks lmao. the brother is to tsundere for his own good, it's not fair for him to string a good girl like Rubia along like that. In conclusion (I say on ch 13 lmao) i don't think this ones like, actually that bad or anything. it's just... not as good or nuanced as what i wanted to read right now and it made me angry orz. the characters are a little shallow and very cartoonish, everythings super exaggerated, the mcs is so "I shouldn't like him... but ;///;" and thats SO annoying. i've been spoiled for otome iskeai so this extremely bland one just grinds my gears. also i'm reading it at 3 am so y'know... not feeling the MOST tolerant towards stuff i don't like. alright you know what! it still pisses me off every single chapter so i'm officially dropping this as of ch 30. fuck off.
I’m a Villainess, Can I Die?
this is great. I love how the mc committed sudoku and they, woah! she's still a depressed empty shell of a person! she wasn't miraculously cured via isekai! awesome!! I also really like how dedicated she is to her goal of... well... ending it all. It's refreshing to see a character working toward what they want without getting sidetracked or bogged down by the original story. like i know she isn't going to succeed because if she dies the webtoons over but it's nice to see her not giving up. or rather its... realistic to see her not giving up. it's not nice but it's meaningful. thats not something that can just get better right away. especially if she isn't working at getting better. refreshing! i also really like the other characters theyre very sweet. I will say I hope the Knight is the love interest, if we end up having one. I can't really tell if the knight or the butler have author preference but for me, the Knights my type ^w^b edit: ahh... i just realized the butler is the one on the cover... aight then. classic me, getting second male lead syndrome orz...
For Better or For Worse
argh. i remember REALLY liking this whe n i read it ages ago but this time around... it's rubbing me the wrong way... i hate when characters are forced to do things they dont want to do, which they are totally capable to resisting but they just aren't! at least the mc is in a spot where its not totally viable ofr her to reject the engagment but like... run away girl gtf out of there girl!!! edit: on ch 83!! i take it all back this is so fucking good in love with the ml fr fr. i will say. we are in the ever frustrating "the original mc will come along and take my husband..." section... classic aggravating bit you know how it is. so im taking a little breakski from reading. because its pissing me off -w-)b praying to god that we get over this quickly but i know we won't orz
Cinderella Wasn't Me
aight so i'm three chapters in but just gotta pop in and say!! fuck this actually! if i was the mc i would either 1) run away or 2) kms because theres NO way i would EVER consider putting up with tthat fucking shit. fuck her boyfriend, fuck her dad, and fuck the northern dukedom aight this ones actually okay i like it. it's kinda fun how every single characters kind of a bad person and has their own shitty motivations. i still don't like her dad but he's hardly in the story so theres that. the ml is actually really interesting because he's like... genuinely an awful person but you can seeeee you can seeee him getting a little overly attached in what was meant to be a business relationship ;) boutta lose focus and have a consensual workplace relationship if you know what i meeaaan. also he's blonde. just throwing that out there.
