I have just noticed that this novel has no reviews so I'm going to have to do it some justice. First of, one of my current favorites. It's definitely not your cup of tea if you're into fluff novels or generally those with good mls. Both these people are twisted and they've contributed to doing it to the other's mind. The characters are really terrifying and reasonably so. The ML can be considered out of his mind and the FL quickly adapts to it because she sees and understands that... more>> there is no way to change him. The suspense keeps you engaged and the chapters deliver amazing writing. The current arc being translated is very very good and all in all I 100% recommend it if you're looking for a break from typical transmigration novels. Definitely not for the weak hearted though. <<less

Probably the best novel I have ever dropped. It is fascinating, like watching a slow motion car crash. The mystery, misery, violence, kindness; I have no idea where it was going and struggle to take my eyes off it.

But ultimately this isn't my cup of tea, and the horror won out over the fascination. But if you like yandere, horror, complex relationships, then I think there is a gem here for you.

This is truly an incredible story but, unfortunately, I think this is one of those web novels where it would have been better in Korean. I felt a lot of the dialogue or nuances of the story couldn't be properly conveyed in the translation. This is not to bash the translator team. They tried their best and, although the translation starts off a bit rocky, it does gets dramatically better around chapter 10. I think some stories just are better told in the native language.

As for the story, the plot... more>> is one of the most interesting, layered web novels I've ever read. All the characters are morally gray, able to express tender kindness but also incredible madness. The FL transmigrated into a novel as a maid. Knowing that her employers were going to be killed, she tries to escape but is captured by the ML. The ML is a beautiful psycho who goes through cycles of madness and kindness. At the ML's mansion, the FL is forced to learn to kill and takes poison that makes her blood so toxic she can burn people's tongues off by kissing them. It's a horrible time for the FL, but here she also starts to learn about her character's past and starts to question the storyline of the novel and who is really good and bad. As another reviewer mentioned, it's like watching a slow moving car crash, you can't take your eyes off it.

The story has so much potential, but unfortunately I have dock points because it was a bit confusing at some parts.

Overall: 7/10 <<less

I'm into dark stories, and this is definitely dark, so I've been enjoying this one so far! The heroine's biggest priority is always herself, which is refreshing, although she doesn't seem completely deprived of empathy or affection. The male lead appeared before I actually realized he was the male lead. He starts out mysterious and inscrutable but becomes kind of easier to understand over time. His interactions with the female lead get pretty intense, but he hasn't done anything to the female lead I would call unforgivable.

Both the FL and... more>> ML are full of mysteries, and it's been a wild ride to slowly uncover them. The translation started out as just decent in the first 25 or so chapters. The POV often moved between first and third person, and the sentences could be confusing. There's some noticable improvement later, though, so bravo to the translation team for their growth! I hope they keep up the good progress and look forward to reading more.

Just a heads up, the translators also included unmarked spoilers at the bottom in some translation notes, so I'd skip those to avoid spoilers. And I would say go into this novel without spoilers if you can. The mystery is a lot of fun! <<less

So this novel is such a disaster

REAL DISASTER

the way author write that story those characters that plot EVERYTHING WAS EXCELLENT

I’m not saying it was actually perfect but nearly, the plot twist catches me every single time, plus the bloody hell way she wrote those characters is actually insane like really all characters were crazy and psycho REALLY no one was in his mind but you know what? In smart way most of characters (or at least the important one) were pretty smart and intelligent even those who I tho they... more>> were s*upid

and maybe you will be disappointed by the nearly end because there’s barely any romance but you know what ? By the end you will get sick from MC romance moments I’m telling you the author is just saving everything for the end REALLY

In summary,

this is a great novel for those who want to read about crazy human beings and a lot of moving around like you don’t want the story to be in the same place and a tragic MC with happy ending and some weird things here and there that will make you say “girl what the he-“ this is a great choice and highly recommend it

my issue with it with romance at the end like dam- leave the f@cking bed yell I’m sick

and really sometimes I didn’t feel comfortable with some scenes like blood and fMC use mMC or the opposite so yeah that my opinion <<less
