    Reader note

    Speaking of lighthearted slice-of-life novels, I highly recommend this one. Don't let the low rating fool you; it's genuinely good. The female lead is very clear-headed. It's not a time-travel or rebirth story, and there's no catastrophic start. It's just a simple, peaceful retirement life as a palace maid. She has the opportunity to retire at 20, which she decisively chooses, and goes home to farm and enjoy her retirement. There aren't many villains, and they're not particularly evil. It's truly a refreshing read.
