   Who understands?! I absolutely love this kind of clear-headed, ruthless, and unwavering female protagonist who settles all scores! I highly recommend the palace intrigue and domestic drama novel, *Listening to the Heart's Killing*. A once gentle and kind woman is reborn with hatred, witnessing the dark side of human nature. Those who bullied her, humiliated her, and harmed her entire family will be punished one by one, showing no mercy. There's no romance clouding her judgment; her intelligence remains consistently high throughout, precisely targeting all the villains and meticulously settling deep-seated grudges. The tension is palpable, the revenge is exhilarating, and the series gets even more exciting as it progresses. Sisters looking for something to read should definitely add this to their reading list!
