Review Detail of cassia_m in The Rebirth Of Feng Xi

***review at 34 chapters with some spoilers** --this review is quite opinionated-- I'm at 34 chapters so far and I feel forced to continue reading, at least the free chapters. It's the typical reincarnation novel and I actually indulge in these novels. While the writing is great and the length of each chapter is long, it still doesn't hook me on. I think it has to do with the pacing of the story and some unrealistic parts of their world. The pacing was good at first but when the ML came in, everything was just *snap snap* all of a sudden feelings, beds, kiss, proposal, etc. It just felt sudden to me, especially when you make out the FL to be smart, state she doesn't want love, and has some trauma over her past life. This all does get addressed throughout but I feel like it gets brushed aside really fast. This makes me feel like the feelings are less genuine and the development is unrealistic. Then when it comes to the settings of the story, it just feels even more unrealistic when the ML gets his way with killing and threatening people openly. While he does have the power, that shouldn't justify everything he does or be used as a mean for the story. The way the FL carries about her revenge on her sister makes me question her IQ sometimes as well. It doesn't satisfy me as much as I thought it would. Apart from that, I do enjoy the support that the leads have for one another. I do like how the ML is smart and doesn't take believe outsiders easily. That just makes for less of unnecessary arguments/misunderstandings for the leads. I will probably try continuing to see if my opinion changes. Wished I could have enjoyed it as much as the rest of the reviews though but I've read too many novels and I feel like it's time to be critical to find one worthwhile to read.
