I was really excited for this novel. I saw the summary, comments, reviews, and ranking, so I was hoping for a good novel with detailed characters, plot, development, and world building in general. However, I am really disappointed and surprised at how high the ranking still is. Even though I haven't read a lot of the novel, I can already guess where this is going. Another generic plotline that has been repeated thousands of time, romance that pulls together out of nowhere, plot holes absolutely everywhere. The characters have no depth, and the biggest thing I understand about them is that everyone is beautiful. The chapters are too short to have anything happening at all, and there are plenty of hidden gems better than this. I am not stopping anyone from reading this, and I respect your opinion if you do, but there are plenty of other well written books that have gone by unnoticed. This chapters go at the same rate of hidden marriage chapters (one important event happening every 10-20 chapters). I may be the only one who has the opinion, but as a veteran reader, I can tell what a good book is.

Exactly what i've been thinking, i keep scrolling the comment section and wonder why everyone give high rating. Also many readers compared this with ling lan's story, i cant agree w this, in my opinion linglan's story is really detailed on all side and i love it, not like this one. In my opinionthis one really are average one. Different person different taste i guess

100% agree!! I was looking forward to it too 😔 Very disappointed so far... By the way, anyone that compares this story to Ling Lan's (as mentioned by MethaHrnda) is brain dead...

I read this novel in Chinese; When I first started, at first I was excited because the protagonist was great I thought maybe the author would not spoil it as they do in a generic way ... but in the end as always the protagonist becomes stupid when she confronts the male protagonist, in Personally I do not like the god Qin, he actually forces the protagonist even in bed, then forbids him to use contraceptives? Where is that love? he is a bastard

True, but I feel it's better than the many other romance books that have been released. At least for my taste. My favorite on this site is Pick up a Son, get a free Husband. But most of the other books that are coming out are tragic repeated drama. I see a lot of people like that. So that's what were gonna get.

If I were to recommend a novel on this site, my favorite would be Doomsday Wonderland. The main character is an extremely intelligent female, and the plot is action themed. This book is the farthest thing from cliche, and I absolutely love it. Compared to novels like Hidden Marriage, which is focused on a generic plot line and fast-paced romance, Doomsday Wonderland is full of twists and turns that leaves me breathless. This is a novel focused on elements of world-hopping, but is unlike any other I have ever read. I do read, and love Hidden Marriage, but if I were to choose between 100 chapters of HM and 10 chapters of DW, I would definitely pick DW. TLDR; Go read Doomsday Wonderland because it is amazing and sorry for the long rant.

I heard a lot of different things about Doomsday, until I heard something negative about it, and didn't give it a chance. But seeing the way you put it, I should give it a try. Thanks for the recommendation.

. . . This might be a month late, but since I had just read DW, I must comment that LSJ is totally NOT an intelligent woman! She is a total meathead that most other character acknowledged her meatheadedness! She has cunning, but she is not truly smart perse, albeit that she also has some skills that help her fake being smart. It is still a good read though. Much recommend.

Same here. I've been reading this as far as I can go and still, it keeps me waiting. I really thought it would be worth spending every SS once I reach the ship being sailed but the chapters are way too short and mostly nothing ever happens between the two. It let me down and I might reconsider dropping the book sooner or later. I've almost reached 200 chapters so I'm hoping the ship finally moves or something, anything to keep my shipping instincts alive.

1. HOW DARE SOMEONE COMPARE TGIS VOOK TO BOSS LAN?! BOSS LAN IS THE SKY ABOVE THE SKY, THE BOOK IS ABSPLUTELY AMAZING. 2. Doomsday Wonderland is the most creative book I've read. Ever. Hands down one of my favorite books on webnovel. The world building is good, the TRANSLATOR is good,, and it's a total gem. It didn't even become premium until ch 500 and that's more than enough time to fall in love with the book. 3. I agree that almost all romance novels that are being released are cliche as he'll. I need to check out this book, because the synopsis is similar to the best book I've ever read which is...... 4. Rebirth of the empress of Military Lineage. Hands down best historical CN I've ever read. The MC actually faces danger and doesn't rely on the ML at all. The romance is satisfying, not too fast and not too slow. Just right. It's like a breath of fresh air among all the cardboard books out there. Hard not to pass up.

The Fl in this novel is not even close to Ling Lan(not hating). I guess they like this novel because of the FL and Ml's flirting(everyone's in heat when reading this novel basically). And I don't know why everyone likes the ml, I know he is powerful in terms of fame, wealth and etc. But, really? Is that what they like the most from a male lead? (again not hating, just stating my own opinion). I'm a woman too, although, I also like a powerful Ml but, considering how they exaggerate the Ml is a bit... cringy. Again, not hating. Just stating my opinion. You can like whatever you want. There is freedom in that after all.

My sexy greek god matchmaker

I look up and see Daniel idiot Collins smirking down at me. “ you just purposely stepped into my way didn't you? ” I ask him glaring pointedly at him. “ uh huh ” he replies smiling that stupid smile of his that sometimes makes certain girls swoon. Even if I have to admit that his green eyes shining brightly as he smiles is cute, I have no plans of swooning. I intensify my glare and sigh, then step back. “ I simply do not have time to play your childish games with you Danny. So run along. ” I flip my hair and try pushing him out of the way but he grabs my hands and pulls me closer to him. I can't help but shiver when I feel his breathe caress my cheek as he leans in to whisper to me. “ don't you want me to pass on your kisses to Jonas? ” I push away from him as he laughs in that loud boisterous way that always attracts attention. I turn red both from what he said and the people staring at us with curiosity. I flee from him wanting to escape the scene when a thought registers in my mind. What if Daniel is the matchmaker I need? Veronica Saunders, brainy, beautiful, bold and rash.
