Hundred_Lilies

I don't mind a novel with an underlying patriotic theme, but I don't want it constantly thrown in my face, which is what this novel does. Everything that the MC does and everything that the story is about is about how great China is, how wonderful the Motherland is and how sacrificing and incomparable the Chinese soldiers are. If the author could lower his volume of nationalism and patriotism just a smidge (like a huge amount of smidge), the novel would be so much better.

So far, so good. A very typical rebirth/transmigrating story about an MC with a space and a kinship burden to bear and keep alive, but still very entertaining. I love a badass female with a strong backbone and 'take no prisoners'-attitude. The siblings are cute and delightful as well. The translation on the other hand leaves much to be desired. The grammatical gender is consistently wrong and messes with my reading rhythm. Better proofreading should be a demand.

It's an excellent novel with an interesting storyline and well-written characters, but I have to say that the translation is rather subpar and even gets progressively worse in the latter half of the novel with a lack of proofreading which doesn't do the author's work justice.

The constant back and forth between past- and present tense makes it really hard to read and follow the story. Author, if you ever find the time (and energy) to proofread and update your chapters, it would make the reading experience so much more pleasant.

When you've stockpiled chapters like a busy little hamster, only for the stockpile to suddenly run out.😖

It started out so good, but then it just became drama, upon drama, upon drama after chapter 79. The story stops being about animals and instead gets replaced by cliché conflicts and drama where the FL constantly has to defend herself from scheming bitches and clear her name to the mindless netizens. The only reason why the score is 3.8 is because of the translation quality and the stability of updates; if not for them the score would have been 3.

Looking forward to see Jake continue to shine and get his well deserved accolades by his peers. I know he really just wants to crawl into a hole because of his shyness, but I like it when he gets a confidende boost.[img=recommend]

WARNING! Don't pay for this chapter! It's just an update and self-promotion for a new book by the author.

I know it's still a bit too early to write a review, but I just had to nevertheless, because this novel is straight out the twin to "Treasure Hunt Tycoon" with all the racism and the MC's ability to find treasures among junk and roaming around people with lack of a moral compass. I more or less enjoyed "THT", despite all the racism and the discrimination, thus I'm looking forward to this one.

I fear this is one of those novels with an irritating and interfering system with way too much personality that takes up more space in the storyline than necessary. Please prove me wrong.🙏🏻
