Yane's manga / #Josei(179)

My rating: 8/10 The beginning was just meh, it was a bit much the ML walking around naked like a greek god. But it got better and the story actually is about seeing people for who they really are and being there for each other ehen in difficult times. It's pretty wholesome. BLIND ML, VACATION When the FL goes on vacation in her uncle's house at a beach, she encounters a naked, blind man, her neighbour. He turns out to be a famous sculpturer who lost his eyesight one year ago in a car accident and couldn't work since then.

My rating: 8,3/10 The art is so beautiful!! I like the characters, it's interesting as they're not stereotypical for harlequin, especially the ML. He's a bit serious and odd in a good way. But I don't get why being a wife equals being employed. MARRIAGE, DOCTOR The FL was raised by her uncle and worked at his clinic as a nurse. When he dies, her cousin moves into the house, she loses her job and her fiancee call off the engagement. But when she lost everything, her uncle's former acquaintance offers her to marry him to her and to raise his reputation.

My rating: 7,5/10 It was alright. The ML's face looked a bit like a plank, but the art was ok otherwise. I liked that the FL didn't forget all about her trauma right away with their first kiss, it was more realistic. Her ex is abusive scum, he got what he deserved. MARRIAGE, WILL, TRAUMA Before he died, the FL's father made arrangements with a wealthy businessman in order to save his company and get her a husband. Now she has to marry the former playboy, but she isn't ready for love due to her past trauma.

My rating: 7,8/10 The ML is a bit of a coward. He basically watches her all the time until the last couple of pages and thus seems pretty cold. His proposal came a bit out of the blue. The FL is an angel. She's so kind and flawless, it wouldn't surprise me if she began to shine or something. DOCTOR, CHILDREN, FINANCIAL GAP When the children at the nursery she works at suffer from food poisoning, the FL loses her job. Luckily, a handsome doctor she met in the process recommends her to his sister as a temporary nanny.

My rating: 8,4/10 It was so sweet, I really enjoyed reading it. They were all so likable and eager to make each other happy. The story was a bit like a derivation of Cinderella. I'm glad her evil uncle's family didn't appear much. HISTORICAL, CHRISTMAS, CHILDREN When Christmas is near, the FL's uncle and his family go to visit their friends for a week and leave the orphaned young lady alone at the manor with only two servants. But then, in the middle of a blizzard, an ex-soldier arrives with his servant and his two children asking for a place to stay.

My rating: 8,6/10 I loved this story. Both the main leads were good and as there's the ML's pov too, you can watch him fall for her. The both have an actual personality and aren't as flat characters as those I'm used to. The FL is strong, a real queen. HISTORICAL, VIKING, MARRIAGE When her cruel stepfather wants to force her into marrying a stranger, the FL plans her abduction with her best friend. But when they try to flee, a viking stops her and takes her to her relatives castle. From there, she shall go on as planned, but then feelings begin to bloom between her and the viking.

My rating: 8/10 It was actually quite interesting as the story had traits of a whodunit. The FL is strong and the ML is a bit difficult due to his trauma from the war but still a good man. I enjoyed it. HISTORICAL, STATUS GAP, CRIME After the war between England and France, a french seamstress goes to London in order to search for her brother. One night, she saves a lawyer from assassins. But when they come to get her later on, she returns to him and they both temporarily move into his friend's house for safety.

My rating: 7,2/10 The idea was interesting, spending a night together after a plane crash, an abusive ex and a child. But it went downhill later on. The FL acted dumb and seemed oblivious. What bothered me the most is that they used her child to lure out her ex. Like, do you wanna traumatise him?! REUNION, ABUSIVE EX, CHILD Six years ago, the ML and the FL survived a plane crash together and spent the time until their rescue in a passionate embrace. Now, they meet again, but the ML forgot what exactly happened and doesn't recognise her. Meanwhile, she is afraid to fall for a controlling man again.

My rating: 8,3/10 He's a jerk, but not intentionally, he just can't understand other people's feelings and is an arrogant workoholic. But he has a kind side. I loved the FL, she's funny and strong, she puts him in his place from the start. I loved seeing him regret his actions. CHILD, NANNY, PREGNANCY Bc his daughter rejected all the nannies he hired since he took her in after her mother's death, a company president hires the sister of one of his employees who's staying in America for the summer. But he didn't expect to fall for the bright girl who easily manages to bond with his daughter.

My rating: 8,2/10 This was quite good. There actually was some development as the story was a two-shot and I liked the main couple. They felt drawn to each other right away but didn't confess until the end was near. I hate her brother tho, he's scum. DEATH ROW, DEBT, HISTORICAL Bc of the huge debt her brother made under her name, a young noble lady decides to marry a convict who's on death row as her debt would disappear the moment her husband died. But when she meets him, the man turns out to be gentle and sophisticated and on top of that wrongfully accused. To save him, she decides to search for the real culprit.
