Ok, first thing you should know is that I'm not in to slice-of-life/romantic drama type of novels(you can verify this from the novels I posted comments/reading list) so my review is as clean as it gets.Now with this out of the way,I got this novel added to my library by clicking on a user gift. Before i was going to remove it,I thought to at least read the synopsis and I did,from there I stopped at chapter 15(right before posting this review). The novel is about an "innocent" sarcastic hardworking girl being pulled in to "the rich world" by helping/saving the second son of a rich dude sounds simple no? but it's not, you start to uncover some plots behind the event. So far the author did a good job not to oversimplifies the starting plot and to add clues (I think 🙄) to how may the story evolve! There's comedy and the dialogues are well written. I find this novel, light and refreshing,you can read it drinking your ☕ or when you pretend to do work/studies. I gave it 4,4/5 🌟 cuz i enjoyed reading it. It "cleaned my palate" so to say after reading to much "arrogant young master" and "face-slapping" MC. So for the ones that aren't in to the "slice of life/drama" etc just give it a try you may like it,for the rest at least read 3-4 chapters before you decide to skip it. Thanks for surviving reading until now(I didn't expect to write this much). This is my two words in the 15 chapters that I've read so far. Have a nice day!

o kind sir, m new to this.. romance/sof thing, and i really don't like when the female lead avoids the mc and than when other characters come in she "tries"(not really🙄) to avoid them creating a lot of drama(hate this from the bottom of my heart), and is the male lead really the main character or not...i mean if there r multiple pov(s), does the male lead have the majority of pov time(even better if no other povs, just about the male lead).

Try to imagine the novel as you watch a movie plot (and you have some pages from the script),then will be easy for you to change the point of view from the FL to the ML,in my opinion there's not a main character, both of them are . Anyway that's just my opinion, everyone has different styles when reading, just like authors have different styles of writings. Maybe it's not your cup of tea.

That's it!! my way of reading is a bit different??i mean, i like to read with the view point of the protagonist of the story so i get irritated when there is no absolute protagonist, as he just keeps on getting lead by the nose, and am not particularly fond of female protagonists(cuz.... obviously, u already know).r there no romance focused stories with male protagonist???i really like sweet romance without useless drama, but i can't seem to find one with male protagonist. do u know bout any such novel?

I've observed that you used the name of ML from SAO as username,(not like me that makes usernames with whatever i have on my hands at that moment 🙄 like a jar of pickles),my guess is that you're more inclined to videogames type of novels (correct me if im wrong). I think will be disrespectful to the author to recommend you another novel on the review thread of his novel. I personally like his style of writing (presenting the plot from different perspectives) but that's me and everyone has own preference.

umm, i totally forgot about my username until u mentioned it, is just cuz SAO was one of the first animes i watched and i really enjoyed watching it (i enjoyed the 1st season the most 🙂), m not particularly inclined to anything right now (tho i do like video game/VR or such genre).i totally didn't mean to insult he author, i mean even the author must be a reader right? and it was just an open to recommendation kind of thing from basically anyone.

Marry My Billionaire Second Husband

Amelia has slaved her whole life, working multiple jobs to help support her poor husband Caleb― only to discover he is a millionaire! When confronted, Caleb feels no guilt. He divorces her immediately to pursue his true love, leaving her with nothing to her name. “Kelsie is the woman that I love, the woman who truly deserves to be by my side,” Caleb said. “Now, sign the papers and I can end this farce of a marriage.” But thankfully, fate has yet to close all its doors on her. The messy breakup has led Amelia to meet the elusive Matteo Montgomery, the mysterious owner of X’el International Inc., and even though Amelia could have sworn that this is the first time they have ever met, Matteo seemed to hold more interest in her than ordinary. With her divorce finalized, Matteo’s courtship quickly grows more extravagant. He offers her everything, from a job as his secretary, a new penthouse apartment, and a permanent home in his heart. But just as Amelia’s heart begins to open up to Matteo’s sincerity, Caleb comes crawling back, determined to ruin her life. *** 【Excerpt】 “Oh?” Matteo asked, and Amelia caught a hint of amusement in his voice. “Then pray tell, what did we converse about?” Amelia swallowed. Good heavens, he was so close. She could barely even breathe, afraid that every movement she made would just amplify how loud her heartbeat was. It was racing like a bullet train at this point, and she felt it clog at her throat, refusing her a chance to speak. “I… I…I―” “I have no girlfriend, Amelia,” Matteo said. “And before you overthink, I do not have a wife in secret either.” His fingers didn’t let go of her wrist, and instead, it even tightened its grip. It wasn’t painful in the slightest, but it sent surges of electricity rushing through her body as though she had been struck by lightning in the most thrilling of ways. A coy smile curved his lips, and he leaned in just the slightest. His lips were now a hair’s breadth away from hers, and Amelia instinctively held her breath. “Unless, perhaps you would like to volunteer?”

Married to a mechanic, she shocked the world

【StrongFL,Faceslapping】 【Superrich ML,sweet pampering】 Lin Wu was reborn. Her mother was duped into a sham marriage by a worthless man. And she herself was the pitiful illegitimate daughter kicked out of a wealthy family. She was mocked, "What can a wild child from the countryside amount to?" Facing adversity, she smiled faintly. What did being an illegitimate daughter of a wealthy family matter? She helped her poor mother to kick her worthless father to the curb, quickly gave her stepmother the boot, crushed the trash. She established her own skincare brand, living a prosperous life ever since. Forgiving her enemies? Never. If there's no justice, she will be the justice herself. —— Just as Lin Wu's life is thriving, her grandfather's family, who had been missing for many years, finally found her! And so, the woman who everyone thought was forsaken, divorced and saddled with a child, unexpectedly became the sole heir to a super wealthy family. What shocked Lin Wu even more was that her "good-for-nothing" car mechanic boyfriend transformed overnight into an unattainable top tycoon. Afterwards, Lin Wu became a lady of high society, who got everything handed to her on a platter and was pampered by the tycoon to the heavens and back. —— Later. Lin Wu had become a renowned female entrepreneur. Standing on a high platform, she delivered her speech: "Our ancestors mostly valued boys over girls. They neglected the education and growth of girls, trapped them between household and trivial matters, asserting that husband was heaven and son was earth. Once betrayed by men, these women would lose their support and be condemned as ruined!" "But today!" "Look at this plaza filled with thousands of people, they are all young female entrepreneurs, the hope of humanity!"
