29 - nice idea, let’s see where it goes ? I like the strong feminist voice Read on Webtoon (not ok on all browsers)

40 - promising but need more to see It’s nice the MC is a normal person who gets terrified by murder and criminals, it’s also nice every little bit of the novel got erased and she has to get out of the reader’s prophecy mindeset The pace is also good, there is a lot of action, a good number of characters and a (thick?) plot The bad relationship seem to be dragging, maybe, she’s smart not to trust, but at the same time, after 40 chapters it’s a bit sad and more than a bit boring to see the back and forth between them , i seriously hope they would talk more openly, as obviously, at least for him, lots of things have changed and he truly started to feel for her

46 - seriously deranged student gets on the nerve of his senior by never noticing his existence (more important than the meeting coming from his responsibility his the senior missng graduation) probably, even before, there’s a degree of attraction and it seems the senior noticed him After a bunch of weird interactions the junior who’s really living like a robot gets disturbed in his autistic routines, but also attracted to the senior - So it’s a bit fun, but also highly interesting, the junior has some genius part, but also some serious disorders, it’s a very special character ; Yet he seems rather real In the end both are going to have a very hard time getting along and finding their way in a relationship that obviously is unexpected to them

36 - 4+ -talkative and confusing in some places , but becomes really strong with female assertiveness I’m seriously not fond of « vilains «  and their hype, but it brought some interesting stories But that « villainess «  is more and more like a woman with self esteem, strong values, with some feminist vibes - She’s becoming confident about her self worth, learn to dare, and even more she’s a rare character that doesn’t go at war against the other woman, but blame the guy for his responsibilities This is pretty good The story is rather packed, the chapters are long with plenty to read and think I’m still not sure about the writer/ god , or the sorcerer part of the story but i love what is being said about the mc -

81 - very good so far : at last, an anti-greed story it’s kind of refreshing that the character chose a righteous path to grow :) It’s more about redemption and growth than revenge (good thing) The pace is getting good, there’s good action too

314 - 4.5 - on Webcomics - Very good in the idol register, there’s a lot about the carrier and artistic challenges - there’s quite a bit about the mystery behind the tragedy of the MC’s mom So while I’m not into the revenge part, i like it that the art competition becomes more important and the core values of the MC switch for the best - the mystery add some danger to the story - there are a big bunch of secondary characters, it feels like a lesser glass mask in many way (except it’s music not theater of course) - i say lesser but it’s still a compliment ;p i’d love to read a lot more !!

38 - i love it, and i hate it (seriously !) independent strong and smart MC, good pace, enough plot to be entertained , nice art ! What’s not to like? BUT The romance is super tiresome !?! Meh i don’t like love triangles, the prince is not so charming (from a philanderer to a psycho), the duke seems to be a doll, but what is behind the facade ? And why oh my is she so terrible when it comes to feelings (submissive, untrusting, low self image, etc) And why do these characters always go for the baddies ? Only flowers prospers in dung, it doesn’t work like that for people Basically, it’s simply the worst, complicated, not sweet , non consensual, full of misunderstandings, where possessiveness seems to be another definitely of « love », it just plain sick and disgusting : how do you expect to make nice and pretty from that ? How disappointing

53 - 4.5 - another make up story ? Well not quite, for once becoming the princess or the prettiest girl is not really the main subject and the characters dynamics is also not that of pygmalion Our « genius «  ùake up artist is really nice, neither overwhelming or overbearing, he’s not a guide but a trigger and a partner (and probably sooner or later a love interest with luggage ), but he’s truly a respectful character Our girl, despite having bad self image is also brilliant, wise and talented, she takes part in lots of decisions and thinks out what she wants to be, how it matters in society The cast and the competition challenges our vision of what a girl should be, what does pretty mean, where’s the boundaries of conformity It’s highly entertaining to read, many things have been said and done about this subject, yet it manages to feel fresh and really great to read

40 - a bit different The family part is cute (quite common crazy yandere family) The murders are truly gruesome The psychopath serial murderer playing cat and mouse with her is not a great addition : i can live without Hannibal Lecter and co https://www.novelupdates.com/series/how-to-be-a-dark-heros-daughter/
