The writing style is quite good, but from what I've seen so far, it feels like a heavily female-oriented novel with incredibly complex interpersonal relationships—the kind where all the power spikes. If you like this kind of thing, go for it; if you're worried about agonizing plot twists, you might want to choose another novel.
This is a well-written novel, different from other rebirth stories. It has its own unique twist. Most rebirth novels feature protagonists who become wealthy through business, but their initial wealth is often portrayed too simplistically and childishly.
It's very well written. The protagonist didn't become rich after being reborn. Instead, he went to the mountains to dig for wild food and to the river to fish. The content is very refreshing. I don't know why the score is so low.
Wealth makes me lustful, poverty makes me fickle, power makes me submissive, seduction makes me yield, I'll confess if I'm not beaten, and cry if I'm beaten. I won't endure hardship, and I won't do any work. Life is but 30,000 days; I'll take it one day at a time. The worst thing in life is complacency; a life of half-poverty, half-wealth, half-contentment is enough.
Very good! It feels like a breath of fresh air in the Tomato Era genre. I really enjoy reading heartwarming slice-of-life stories like this. Most others are basically just about making money, getting targeted by bad guys, solving the problem, making more money, and then getting targeted again—it's so boring. I'll give it five stars to show my support; I really like this book. 🤔
Although the rebirth trope at the beginning is a bit cliché, the subsequent plot twists are quite fresh, the author's writing style is very skillful, and the novel flows smoothly. There are no flaws in the entire book; you can read it without worry. Author, keep up the good work! Even my workaholic husband can't afford to rest like this, please update soon! In the end, I felt like I was the protagonist myself; how did the author even write my story? 🥰
First of all, you can't be too picky about this story. There are a lot of typos, and names are often confused. The cousin is a recurring character trying to get attention throughout, and it uses many clichéd plot points, like the male lead's awful relatives or the female lead's malicious adopted sister. But these don't bother me much; it's a satisfying read for me.
This book had me laughing out loud. There are a few plot points that could be a turn-off, but I found them quite humorous. First, the protagonist is like Conan, a professional at finding missing persons' homes. Second, the protagonist's father's first love is a 40-year-old divorced woman who is still a virgin. It was so funny I couldn't help but laugh, but then I remembered it's just a novel, and the humor should at least be meant to create a positive emotional impact.
It's pretty good without any major flaws, I'd be willing to give it 4 stars, but since it's just starting out, I'll give it 5 stars for now. To be honest, the beginning was alright, but the end was really dragging.
This is another excellent historical romance novel. I previously recommended an ancient sister-swapping marriage novel, and this one also starts with a brother-swapping marriage. The reborn cousins are reborn together in the 1980s. In their previous life, the male lead was incredibly successful, but his younger cousin was jealous of him and thought his sister-in-law was a lucky charm for him.
