BG. I give it 5 stars for the story and the plot (Damn... this novel is a masterpiece, can't believe this author could make such high level novel (honestly, all of the novels this author created are ordinary. Yes, including QWTFD. Even some of them are so weird it made me keep thinking "WTF?"). The plot, the intrigue, the characterization, the details, the worldbuilding, the romance... everything are perfect. The FL is so lovable. I mean, she's a very strong woman (physically and mentally) and her inteligence is also out of chart. Very unfortunate that this kind of woman born in the ancient china era. And the progress of her relationship with ML is also... more>> very good, it's a slow-burn. The FL also didn't immediately accept ML. Heck, ML have to do everything he could (scheming, coaxing, sell pity, etc) to get FL (well, it's his own ln fault. Who tell him to marry FL with someone she hated). And about the side story, *whistle* poor Second ML, eventhough he was reborn after the main story end, he still couldn't get FL and he even didn't become a protagonist).

Summary: In her previous life, she treated her mother-in-law like her own mother, treated her husband with respect and affection, devoted herself to her stepson and stepdaughter, and looking back at herself, Guan Suyi had a clear conscience. But in the end, she was ruined, exiled, and died alone. When she was about to die, Guan Suyi summed up her tragedy with one phrase: doing too much and saying too little.

After rebirth, she decided to say nothing, put on the hypocritical face of a good wife and mother, strive for the reputation of a gentle and virtuous character, bury all the enemies in the pit, and ask them to be grateful and remember her as their benefactor for the rest of their lives. <<less

BG. I give it 5 stars for the story and the plot (at first, I thought this novel would be like other korean girl novels in medieval european setting, interesting but shallow and a bit skewed in details. But, damn... I have to admit that this novel is a masterpiece. The worldbuilding, the details, the historical events, the strategies, the schemes, the characterization... all perfect! And the mind battles... *clicking tongue in awe* it turned my mind into mush just by how their complexity. I wonder why the author decided to make this into a romance novel), and 5 stars for the characterization (I love all the characters. Not only the important characters, even the... more>> extras are also have their own personality. And the most important is: The villains are not dumbasses that could be defeated in one chapter! Heck, they even could contend with MC in the battle of wit and strategy! This novel is one of the most realistic in characterization I've ever read).

Summary: A genius schemer, creating an emperor!

“Only when your brother is happy can you be happy.”

She committed all kinds of evil deeds to make him Emperor. However, Artezia’s devotion was repaid with betrayal. It was the Grand Duke Cedric, a righteous enemy, that gave her a hand of salvation at the threshold of death.

“Devise a plan.”

“…”

“I can’t think of anyone but you who can reverse this situation. Marquess Rosan.”

“…”

“Lend me your strength.”

There is no plan that can reverse the already declining power and save the fallen empire. However, there is a method. To turn back time before everything went wrong.

With tears of blood she sacrificed her body to an ancient magic. This time, she will not fall.

Artezia, who returned to the age of 18 before death, resolved to become a villainess for the Grand Duke Cedric.

“Please give me your hand in marriage. I’ll make you emperor.”

In exchange for kneeling to the devil, the devil shall dirty her hands for you. <<less

BG. I give it 4,7 stars for the story and the plot (The story is very interesting and intriguing, I love to see an MC who doesn't give a sh*t about romantic love and prefers to love their children unconditionaly. For you who want to read about strong female MC, I recommend this novel).... more>>

Summary: She gave her all to make her son, 3rd Prince Leon, emperor. On the day this dream was fulfilled, she went to the place where the emperor’s coffin rested, where she found her son dying from the poison he had drunk himself.

“I… have never been happy in my life.”

Only despair was left for Elisha, who was holding onto her son’s cold corpse. “Leon…”

However, after losing consciousness, she woke up to find that her young son was looking at her with his lovely face!

“If this isn’t a dream, if it’s a new opportunity… I stole a lot of things in the name of doing it for you, so if you ask me, I will do whatever you want.”

Elisha, who vowed to become a good mother in this life, instead of piling up dead bodies and squeezing blood in a war to claim the emperor’s throne, makes a different choice from the past by weaving ties with her stepson, the crown prince. <<less

BG. I give it 4,2 stars for the story (Well, this novel is a bit interesting, albeit too much cliche, but the story is gradually become more and more interesting. And what I like most from this novel is how much the author paid attention to the details. The author didn't let the questionable stuffs become a plothole or a mystery forever (because honestly, many authors pass their novel's weirdness as something normal or even never be talked about again). And the progress of the relationship between MC and ML is also understandable. Love how the in-laws (and the family vassals too) become obsessed with MC).... more>>

Summary: My family and my husband killed me. Because of the inheritance.

Returning to the past, I made up my mind.

“I have to protect my life and my inheritance.”

Grand Duke Lapireon of the cursed family. I offered him, who was not interested in property and women, a one year contract marriage.

Now, all we have to do is get a divorce…

“Lady, do you think you can leave me now?”

My husband is weird.

“Would you like a land or a mine? Or an empire?”

“Sasha, did Theo do something wrong?”

“Mom, don’t leave me.”

“Sister… I can’t live without you.”

Even my in-laws began to obsess over me. <<less

BG. I give it 5 stars for the story and the plot (This is a masterpiece. The characterization, the worldbuilding, the plot, the writing style, all are perfect. Unfortunately, the romance is so cheesy it always made me want to hurl (maybe it's because the setting is in the medieval era, and you know how the mid-era people romance, right?), but it's okay, at least the romance is slow-burn and makes sense, the characters are not instantly in love (well, the ML always has feelings toward MC since beginning, but he has reason), and not contain any unecessary prolonged misunderstanding (the MC is a blunt person, so when she misunderstand something, she always asked the... more>> person she has misunderstanding with). The story... damn, the story is so good, it's like any OP Male MC fantasy novels out there, but with female protagonist and better worldbuilding. Unfortunately, the story feels dragged on and so sometimes you will feel bored when reading the chapters. But overall, I very much recommend this novel for you).

Summary: “You were my enemy who always defeated me, but you were also a pretty good companion.”

“Shut up! What do you think will possibly change if you say that now after all this time?”

He, who was more like her than any other. That was why they were so fixated on only each other, why they were so madly obsessed about only each other.

The only difference between them was that one wholeheartedly wanted to have the other, while the other wholeheartedly wanted to defeat him.

This was the very reason why this catastrophe had happened despite that they were the other’s sole companion.

“This life is over. But in the next, I won’t be your enemy, but your knight.”

If there is a next life, I will offer up my sword to you.

A brightly burning flame was pathetically extinguished.

And so, Ianna Roberstein, a duchess of the Kingdom of Roanne and the strongest swordswoman on the continent, died at the hands of the Conqueror Arhad Roygen, the emperor of the Bahamut Empire.

‘But why am I alive?’ <<less

BL. I give it 4,5 stars for the story (This novel is good for lightreading. The problem is the MC is too OP. Yes, his life path is still not easy after rebirth, but he always overcome them in the end. What I love from this novel is the relationship between MC and ML, there's so much respect toward each other, it's really a pity that they never get together in the past life, and instead MC trapped in relationship pit with a manipulative scumbag. Unfortunately, there's no side story after the novel end. Because I very much curious with the life of MC's best friend's and the scumbag's life after the main story end).... more>> style="line-height: 40px;"> Summary: Zhou Yuhe was bad at acting, but it didn’t matter. His stunning beauty in his youth made him never lack in resources in the industry.

Until his face was destroyed in a fire;

Zhou Yuhe had a bad face, but he didn’t care. The popularity of tens of thousands of fans from when he was young allowed him choose among the most popular scripts and cultivate himself back to the top.

15 years later, he acted with Liu Xiaosheng in the remake of his old drama, and burned to death;

Someone ruined his face and acting career with a big fire,

Then he was killed by another fire.

It is a pity for them that Zhou Yuhe didn’t die.

He returned to before the first fire with extraordinary acting skills that he had cultivated for fifteen years. <<less

BG. I give it 4,2 stars for the story (It's really really good. And very funny. I swear I keep laughing by the ML's antics, he's so precious. What I like about this novel is ML, he's so refreshing, the most unique kind of BG chinese novel. Why, you asked? Because he's an idiot and a dork, truly a pure teenager, the most realistic kind of high-schooler ML, something that's very rare in any chinese novels (BG and BL). But, despite all the funny things, I also cried when I read this novel. MC's life before she was reborn is truly sad, I still feel that she's too kind to her biological family, but I... more>> understand why she did that. It's better to completely severe any relation with them and never care about them anymore rather than wasting her time and energy to get revenge on them, to give her emotion for them again. And ML is also actually suffer behind his smile and his idiotic antics. I'm glad that he and she found each other).

Summary: Despite having found Mingxi, the Zhao family continued to favor the fake daughter, saying that Mingxi was not as kind nor as graceful as Zhao Yuan.

Mingxi didn’t mind. She continued to work hard to please her family although they would always say that she was trying to rob their attention away from Zhao Yuan.

Until she died because of a terminal illness.

It was then that she realized that Zhao Yuan was the actual lady blessed by luck while she was merely this novel’s evil supporting character with a tragic ending.

Zhao Mingxi who was given a second chance at life was bitterly disappointed. She no longer cared about her family. Screw her family and her fiancé. She immediately packed her bags and left home, off to complete the task given by the system named ‘Becoming Friends With Popular and Valuable Characters’.

After she left, the house suddenly became cold and quiet.

By right they should feel at ease, but–

Her parents, her indifferent elder brother, her brash younger brother, Shen Liyao who was used to her pursuits were all successively feeling… unused to it? <<less

BG. I give it 4,5 stars for the story and the plot (the beginning is a bit bad and full of cliche, plotholes, and brainholes, the writing style also looked like a story that a highschool girl write. BUT don't be discourage, there's a reason of why I give it 4,5 stars, because the story and the plot are getting better and better. And in the end, it become perfect. I love MC's character, she's so realistic and has strategic mind, she's the type that will not let anything to stop her way to the life she wanted. ML is very fortunate that, in the end, MC reciprocated his feelings toward her, because she's a... more>> heartless little shit. And MC is also very fortunate to meet ML, because ML is truly devoted towards her. I really really love the relationship journey between the two. We all can see the up and down their life and the development of their feelings toward each other. All in all, the story of this novel is very good. Unfortunately, the author didn't make a long story about what happened when ML (from the 1st timeline) reborn into the new timeline (the 3rd timeline), I very much curious about how the story goes. Will the feelings between ML and MC become as strong as ML and MC from the 2nd timeline if ML is the one who get reborn?)

Summary: Cheng Yujin was the elder twin sister, who was supposed to be engaged to an excellent man. However she later learned that her fiance, Marquis Jingyong, had proposed to her because he mistakenly recognized her as her younger twin sister. Marquis Jingyong and her younger sister had a deep relationship, and after many twists and turns, finally broke through all hardships and became eternal lovers. While Cheng Yujin was the villain who replaced her sister’s good marriage, kept framing her sister, and hindered the main couple to be together. A really wicked older sister and poisonous late wife.

After the younger twin sister was reborn, she revealed Cheng Yujin’s ‘conspiracy’ early on. Everyone scorned her, and her so-called fiance was indifferent. Cheng Yujin sneered and tore off their engagement letter in front of her fiance.

Everyone was gloating and happily waiting to see her regret her actions. However, before Marquis Jingyong had a chance to see Cheng Yujin’s regret, he saw his former fiancee marrying her uncle.

The ninth uncle of Cheng family was truly a hidden dragon, his real power frightening everyone.

***

Cheng Yujin, this coquettish little wife, lightly lifted her eyebrows and casually said, “A mere Marquis Jingyong, is he worthy? Do you think that robbing him away will affect me?”

Almost forgot to say, ninth uncle wasn’t surnamed Cheng. His real name was Li Chengjing, the crown prince. <<less

BL. I give it 4,3 stars for the story (The story is good, so cheesy and exagerrating in many things. But what I love from this novel is the psychological aspect, it's very realistic. We can see how MC struggled in dealing with his PTSD and self-blame, we can see how ML dealing with his obsession, we can see how other characters dealing with their own psychological problems (with good ending and bad ending), even the main villain himself had his own problem. The overall, this novel is good, but only for lightread).... more>>

Summary: As a useless, spoiled and wild child, Bai YiHan finally brought about the end of his family, chased away the one he loved and caused his own death. After rebirth, he decides to cleanse himself and work hard at being a good child. But a lot of things don’t seem to be as he expected…

Bai Pa + Bai Ma: My son’s so obedient. Someone must be bullying him. This cannot be forgiven!

Bai Big Bro + Bai Big Sis: If my little brother’s sensibility comes from his suffering, then I’d rather he be a spoiled brat forever!

Mu JingYuan: If HanHan hits you, you must accept it. Yet you dodged…The wind’s changing. Someone should be bankrupt to make HanHan smile.

Bai YiHan: … I was so wild in my past life, your involvements are undeniable! <<less

BG. I give it 4,5 stars for the story and the plot (At first, I thought this novel is like those cliche girl c-novels (it's because of the title), and I didn't have high expectation about the story and the plot because I only read it for fun, but I never expected that the story is so good and full of thriller. It's so interesting that I binge read it. The romance also very slow burn, it show up gradually and followed the story. Unfortunately, so many negative details that's very like those cliche BG c-novels (you can read the list in the review column, because they're so spot on), or I would've given it... more>> 5 stars).

Summary: After rebirth, Shen Yuanye discovered that her Weibo page was able to foresee the future.

As soon as she followed the other party’s Weibo page, it would immediately refresh to show the other party’s [Portrait of the Deceased], [Date of Death], and [Picture of the Death Scene].

……Eventually, the foreseeing function of her Weibo page had upgraded.

“Film Emperor Zhang and Empress of Pop Li, who fights everyday……are actually in the same Portrait of the Deceased?”

“Singer was killed……the mu*derer’s shoe was photographed at the death scene?”

“The new young actress and the Film Empress……died at the same time?”

Jiang Pan: Why do you not follow me on Weibo?

Shen Yuanye: ……

That was because she did not want to see both of them together in his Portrait of the Deceased after she followed him on Weibo. I shall unfollow you, unfollow! <<less

BL. I give it 4,8 stars for the story and the plot (Holy shit... what a crazy journey. As expected of the title, MC is truly mad. How he pushed and played his enemies slowly and gradually into destruction... what a masterpiece. The story is good and kind of realistic. I love how the author wrote in detail about MC's psychological condition (because usually the other novels with the same theme just... ignoring about the trauma that MC going through in his past life. They wrote that MC have traumatic experiences in their past life but never do anything about it in their new life). And ignore what other people said about the romance is... more>> very lacking, and that MC and ML didn't have any chemistry at all, either they're lying or not reading it to the end nor comprehend it carefully. I think the romance is very good, the dynamic between MC and ML made me feel envy, not every romance has to be hot and burning (especially with MC's ptsd and mental condition. Hot and burning? MC would be burned to ashes if he have to going through that kind of romance)).

Summary: Chen Qizhao was reborn and returned to the age of 18 when he was still the wicked little overlord of the Chen family.

At this time, his brother hadn’t experienced a car accident while his parents were in good health and weren’t seriously ill. The Chen family was still the prosperous Chen family and everyone thought he was a good-for-nothing who was useless and easily taken advantage of.

“He only knows how to quarrel with his older brother every day. He is arrogant and willful!”

“He looks good, but unfortunately, he is an idiot.”

“Isn’t he a useless person? Just serve him well.”

“It is a pity about that child of the Chen family.”

There were the group of scoundrel friends who were full of thoughts, the rats eyeing him covetously and the old, cunning people who were secretly scheming.

Chen Qizhao put on a mask of arrogance again. ‘Do you like acting so much? Why don’t we act together?’

It wasn’t until later that everyone discovered that at the end of the play, they would either go bankrupt or be imprisoned. <<less

BL. I give it 4,5 stars for the story and the plot (At first, I was skeptic and read this novel only for amus**ent, but I didn't expect that the story is very good. Although there are many plotholes, brainholes, and some braindeads (MC's family is truly something), the story is very decently written. I love MC's and ML's relationship. I'm glad they found each other in the new timeline though with many ups and downs (when I read what happened in the previous timeline, I almost hate and want to kill ML. Really, he saw a bit similarity in the face of MC's brother with someone he was looking for all his life (MC),... more>> but he didn't even deign to think to investigate that maybe, just maybe this boy who looked a bit like his beloved has family connection with his beloved. For a sly and smart man, he's so s*upid. And that s*upidity cost him his beloved, and he only found MC after MC's dead. Serve him right). I recommend this novel for lightreading).

BL. I give it 4 stars for the story (At first, I only read it for amus**ent, because honestly, the beginning is awful and full of cliche, the writing style is also looked like a teenager in puberty wrote it. But as the story goes, I become invested in it, the story and the writing style become better and better, though full of plotholes, brainholes, and braindeads, at least the novel become decent and interesting enough to make me read to the end. What I dissapointed about is the author didn't write a side story about what happened in the previous life, and instead they wrote an AU. *sigh* Very dissapointed).... more>>

Summary: It was only after Jian Xingsui’s death that he realized that he was the cannon fodder in a book with a dog-blooded plot. He was a dumb and s*upid fake young master in it.

​In the book, he was reluctant to return to his poor ”biological” parents. He was greedy of the Jian Family’s wealth and also wanted to suppress the protagonist shou of the book, the real young master. With the tricks that he had personally thought out in his pig-headed brain, he finally succeeded in annoying the hell out of everyone in the family:

His CEO former eldest brother: “I don’t have a younger brother like you.”

His celebrity former second brother: “Never mention to anyone in the entertainment industry that I used to be your brother!!!”

His former father: “Get out, I’m so disappointed in you.”

​​After that, he was kicked out of the house and had a terrible ending.

After he was reborn, when it was the day when the protagonist shou came up to his door, instead of waiting for his family to talk to him, he took the initiative: “You guys won’t have to say anything, I am willing to leave the house!”

Not long after returning home, his poor “biological” parents said: We’re sorry, you don’t seem to be our own child.

Jian Xingsui: ??

Later, the top wealthy family, the Shen family, finally found their young master who had been separated from them for many years. The whole family rejoiced and could not wait to make up for everything to this child:

His CEO biological eldest brother: “Is this 50 million pocket money enough for you?”

His celebrity biological second brother: “You can casually choose any one of these scripts.”

His biological parents: “Suisui is really our pride!”

When the people of the Jian family finally remembered the poor kid who had been kicked out and wanted to give him some compensation, they found out that the new, praised by everyone, rising celebrity in the entertainment industry seemed to be their s*upid and annoying child… <<less
