To be honest, at the start I was a bit doubtful of continuing reading this novel. But, it got more and more interesting. My only complaint is that it took them 995 chapters just for their first kiss. It’s very slow in the romance department but full of comedy, in my opinion.

This story is one that is frustrating and interesting at the same time. The MC is brilliant and has many talents, she also seems to know what people are thinking when they look at her. However, at the same time, she is also oblivious to how some people think of her and doesn't seem to be bothered by their thoughts or inclined to correct them. She flips between aware and blind at the drop of a hat. Her family keep talking about how they should trust her, listen to her, not believe rumours, etc. And yet, they never bother to actually talk to her about anything. Everyone is going around with these thoughts about eachother, then discussing how they are wrong, then they delude themselves into thinking that their actions based on the made up narratives aren't damaging. This book is one that I want to read, but every chapter, I just want to shake atleast 1 of the characters. I don't know if I will be able to continue reading because of that. An occassional annoyance is part of the reading experience, but when you consistently want to ask, "why?" Or tell a character to "just say something already!" You have to wonder if it is worth it.  This isn't a story that if you battle through, you will find ecstatic beauty or heartfelt bonding or soothing reevalutions. So, if you aren't going to get something out of it, whether is relief, joy, knowledge or escapism. Is there a point in reading?  There is so much development, that is can't be a fluff piece or a casual time wasting story. But the characters are vaguely irritating in a way that you can't fully submerge into the story. It's not a bad book. It's just one that by chapter 50, you will be able to tell if you can keep going or if the payoff isn't worth the annoyance.  If I was friends with any of these characters, I would literally tell them to talk! So much can be fixed by it. And it's not even the misunderstanding that are commonly used to create drama in a story. It's basic stuff. How was your day at school? What do like to wear? What is your favourite colour! Come on. It's your long lost daughter/sister and you have no frickin questions?

The Mind-Read Heiress: From Impostor to Family Favorite
