So what else couldn’t they share? The first two emperors of the Song Dynasty were brothers. And you managed to get involved with both of them. But honestly, it’s not your fault. When you transmigrated, you descended from the sky without a speck of dust on you. Everyone who saw you called you a “goddess.” It was a time of chaos.

   11.4. This is a true otome (female role-playing) novel, the kind with strict rules for the fandom; making inappropriate comments could get you severely punished. I suggest closing the comments section. My keen intuition told me long ago that this comments section was bound to be filled with arguments. Let me talk about the good points. I read it as a fantasy novel. The early part, up until the male supporting character's hair-twisting incident, was pretty good, but later on—especially the single-line storyline—it got a bit tedious. The whole thing revolves around the male supporting character's inner monologues; okay, okay, I know you love it, stop with the obsessive rambling. And while the death-faking and amnesia tropes are cheesy, they're still quite appealing. Also, the author definitely shows some favoritism; the older brother is clearly better than the younger one.

   October 17th. A Douji II fanfic, featuring the popular "Black Mud" type. I'm not a big fan of Black Mud, and after reading so many fanfics that 70-80% seem to be about that, I'm a bit tired of it. Also, it features one of my favorite characters, and after over 300,000 words, it seems like it hasn't even been released yet [heartbroken]. Deducting one star. This is perfect for immersive reading in one go. I especially loved the extra chapters. After finishing it, I got really hooked and started searching for other books, but none of them were as good. However, I haven't read it for almost two months since then, and now when I try to read it again, I can't get back into that same state of excitement [crying emoji].

   September 27th. Five stars for writing style. A minor "heartthrob" character; the plot and romance are split 80/20. If you don't mind a rushed ending, you can read it. The beginning is incredibly well-written, but the last twenty chapters suddenly feel very abrupt, like a polished outline. I'm deducting one star. However, at least you know what happens next, so I can accept it.

   9.2. This book really made me cry. The beginning was exceptionally well-written and very enjoyable to read. The only downside was the male lead's overly paternalistic tendencies, constantly referring to "my little one." However, the female lead's career development was quite satisfying. The major flaw was that in the epilogue, the female lead had five children! I'm terrified of childbirth, let alone so many, and there wasn't even a warning about it in the synopsis. When I saw the epilogue, I wanted to gouge my eyes out… Considering the writing time and the relatively satisfying career development in the beginning, I can still give it three stars.

   9.2. The romance and career storylines really hit my sweet spot. The only downside is that it wasn't long enough [poor thing], the later parts felt a bit fast (I wasn't satisfied). It's best not to go to the comments section before reading the main story; it really annoyed me… The author has already mentioned all the shortcomings in the synopsis, so there's nothing more to add.

    2.26. It's barely readable. Although it's supposed to be 900,000 words, many things aren't explained clearly. The romantic plot twists are abrupt, and the overall story is only barely coherent. The writing style has a strong old-fashioned feel, and the female lead is just constantly making comebacks. And what's with the author's description of her as "cunning and cold-blooded"? Aside from the author's own assertion that "Ning Liang's personality has always been cold-blooded," I scrutinized 200 chapters and couldn't find any trace of the female lead's cunning or coldness. If it were a story from 20 years ago, I wouldn't say anything, but it's been 24 years, how come the female lead is still relying on the help of various male supporting characters to get through the difficulties?

    1.11. The title deterred me several times. These kinds of titles usually start with twenty chapters describing the female lead's appearance, at least brainwashing the male supporting characters, who then mindlessly fall in love and become jealous and compete for her favor. I only clicked on it because I had nothing else to read, and I was pleasantly surprised. It's a very strong Western fantasy/Korean comic style! While reading the novel, my mind kept replaying the comics I read in elementary school. The female lead is quite clear-headed, but she seems to be overshadowed by the male supporting characters' charisma. I wonder if the author can capture that sense of intense rivalry; that's what makes it exciting! January 23rd. I've been following the updates these past few days. I saw the author's warning that this is a Japanese otome game, so it might be a bit dramatic and frustrating. Indeed, the second chapter hasn't really suited my taste these past few days; I'm thinking of letting it accumulate a bit more [cat emoji].

However, it is, after all, a novel, and some plot points might not be suitable for overly critical analysis?

    December 31st. Finished reading on the last day of 2025. The advantage of this book is that it's long and satisfying, and since it's by a seasoned Mary Sue author, there aren't many problematic parts. It's a good read when you're looking for something to read. The downside is that the large amount of romance makes it tiring to read. Watching the male guests fight each other is quite exciting, but the female lead's infidelity is too strong, and the frequent cheating and catching her cheating is really exhausting.

The story focuses mainly on her career, with a slow-moving romance. It's probably going to be a long one. A crossover with The King's Avatar, Dragon Raja, and The Grave Robbers' Chronicles.

Click on the latest chapters to see the couple's confession [laughing][laughing] The downside is that the author sometimes uses words typically associated with women, like those used by men. I personally don't find this too offensive, and you shouldn't be too picky about free content. If you're bothered by this, proceed with caution. Also, it seems to be a weekly update.

    November 28th. This story is very popular on the other side of the internet. I read it with high expectations, and it just so happens that it's also available on Jinjiang Literature City, so I'm posting it here. I've only seen the recent Demon Slayer movie and some of the earlier spin-offs. Judging solely from the plot of the movie based on this book, the demons in it are rather out of character (OOC). However, considering the main storyline, it's a very good book. The female protagonist transforms from a ghost to a human, from a state of mental ignorance to a fully developed personality. The author clearly put their heart into it. My favorite characters are the siblings Rengoku and Daki. I didn't cry when I watched the anime, but I cried buckets while reading the story. All the trigger points are written in the synopsis. The Black Mud Granny is indeed out of character. It's okay for someone like me who hasn't read the whole story, but it's definitely not something you can think about too much. My personal suggestion is to find the original version; the plot twists in this Jinjiang version are a bit abrupt.

    November 19th. A typical college romance novel, with stable updates. So it's a bit unbelievable that it only has 2,000 favorites; similar novels usually have at least 10,000. Those interested in college romance novels might want to check it out. The downsides are that some of the male guests' affection seems a bit inexplicable; I don't know if there's foreshadowing involved. Also, it has a common problem in novels—a tendency to give useless physical descriptions of the guests. I'm deducting one star for that.

I don't watch the drama, so I don't mind the author breaking up couples. Overall, it's a very enjoyable story. The only reason I'm deducting stars is that the female lead seems to frequently fake her death (?).

It was originally supposed to be four stars, but it was abandoned because the exciting parts weren't mentioned, so I'll give it three stars.

    Yes, I love eating Hetalia during National Day. Just a casual bite feels so good! Second review: Judging from the synopsis, the female lead's time travel point already hinted at what she would experience, so I read on with high expectations. And indeed! The author is truly fantastic! We Marxists will not be corrupted! —However, I wasn't a big fan of the shady male supporting character in the romance, and Ludwig deducted one point [glasses emoji]. Also, the female lead's slightly dry humor made me cringe a bit, but overall it was very enjoyable! Recommended!

    Curator note

    The magical world setting is very interesting! It could be a fantastic story if expanded upon! However, perhaps due to insufficient writing skill or a writing style that doesn't suit my taste, the one-sided romance felt abrupt and inexplicable, so I'm deducting one point for that. Also, most stories attract readers within the first three chapters, but I only started reading this one around chapter twenty-four. Any plot twists should either be explicitly stated in the synopsis or foreshadowed at the beginning; for the first twenty chapters, none of these foreshadowings were apparent, and I was only keeping reading because of the established setting, so I'm deducting another point for that. 12.2. After reading countless pieces of garbage lately, I suddenly found this article delicious and am giving it back four stars.

Actually, I've forgotten most of it, but I saw it on XHS so I thought I'd share some warnings: The female lead's relationship with one of the male guests developed incredibly fast; I didn't even understand how they fell in love before they broke up. It felt more like it was just pushing another storyline forward? Nothing else to say [glasses].
