   This is a female-centric novel with an incredibly strong female lead. She's the only god in the world, has lived for an unknown amount of time, and is immortal. There's no male lead, and the story is lighthearted and humorous. It's really enjoyable and not at all frustrating. She's not a saint or a pampered heroine; the female lead is only interested in food and money, which is incredibly cute. I highly recommend it!
