said to be the originator of the villainess isekai genre, for which i deem this novel my holy grail in terms of slice-of-life, characterization, and the classic school-shoujo setting (despite barely having any romance) <<less

classic, one of my first chinese romance novels !

iffy plot points, but for what it is (ignoring those iffy plot points ><) and how many tears i’ve shed over this book, i consider... more>> it one of the best tragedy romances on this site <<less

this novel along with its sequel, pristine darkness, makes up my most favorite crime romance i've ever read. i definitely recommend reading the sequel afterwards, as i feel like the romance and character development reaches its peak in the sequel.... more>>

it has just the right amount of suspense and romance, where it can get pretty moody during the mysteries but the romance scenes come in when its most needed. i have a lot to say about this novel, but just know that i could read about Jian Yao and Bo Jinan for days and days and days. best couple <3

100/10 thinking about rereading it just for the feels TTTTATTTT <<less

wow. i reread this when i want to cry and it works every time... more>>

love love love, my favorite dingmo work !

reread 02/22/23: a story that is just too real. where life hits every character unequivocally and you can’t help but wake up to the harshness... more>> of reality. i come to this site to escape, but this novel brings back that touch of “oh. this is real life.” characters are met with many of life’s obstacles, and they cannot do anything about it except just live through it. i think that fact makes every happy or sad event so much more meaningful, so much more impactful in the long run. i love this novel, and while it hurts to see the characters go through hardship, i think their struggle to be with their loved ones happily and healthy is so beautiful  <<less
