Summary from Novel Updates:
This is a story in which the big devil accidentally becomes a poor little loyal dog.
When Chu Qianxun was reborn and returned to the beginning of the apocalypse, she vowed to live a better life, live longer, and stay away from those dangerous people and things. One day, she accidentally rescued an immortal man. After washing his face clean, Chu Qianxun found out in horror that this man was a notorious, cold-blooded and ruthless great demon who made all mankind fearful in the late apocalypse. Whenever Chu Qianxun thought about getting rid of this big demon quietly, that person would always grab the corner of her clothes and say pitifully, ‘You, do you want to abandon me again?’
The dream the FL had and woke up from in ‘Let the villian go‘ is this novel.
4.5 STARS - I REALLY LIKED IT
MY REVIEW:
I've been meaning to read this book since I finished Let the Villain Go last year. Apocalypse Arrival is actually the first book while Let the Villain Go is set in a parallel world.
Right from the beginning, I was hooked by the tight pacing and sense of urgency Chu Qianxun had as she prepared for the end of the world for the second time. And then I couldn't stop reading! There was so much action and drama and a cute slow burn romance!
Like in Let the Villain Go, there's a lot of great examples of how you should rely on yourself to survive instead of relying on others, which I really liked. I loved reading about Chu Qianxun's journey on how she slowly leveled up, made friends, and fulfilled past regrets. I felt like I could have read another 100 chapters of her journey as she continued leveling up and meeting more intelligent monsters! I especially want to know what happened to the ice monster!

Summary from Novel Updates:
When Bai Zhen Zhen woke up, she had actually become the main character of your typical Mary Sue novel.
Car crash, miscarriage, amnesia… In order to fight with her for the male leads’ affection, those vicious women would stop at nothing.
Bai Zhen Zhen said: Who wants a bicycle! Only by walking the way of Buddha I can live a life free of worries till my old age!
As a result, she resolutely avoided the first, second and third male leads, and found a passerby to sign a contract marriage.
The day after obtaining the marriage certificate, shocking headlines stunned the world:
The only grandson of the world’s richest Huo family, Huo Xiang, who had been missing for 22 years, has finally been found!
Bai Zhen Zhen: Such coincidence? His name is exactly the same as yours!
Huo Xiang: Darling, it’s me.
Bai Zhen Zhen: ?
On a certain day after the marriage, Bai Zhen Zhen took out several sheets of paper from the bottom of a box. It was the noninterference agreement they had signed before getting married.
On the cover, a string of gilded bold letters almost burnt her eyes –– 《Bai Zhen Zhen x Huo Xiang’s True Love Filling 10,000 Years of Sweetness and Love Premarital Agreement》 ––
Meow meow meow???
//Male Lead’s version//
On a certain day, Huo Xiang was suddenly bound to a “Saving the female lead” system, and he transmigrated into a book with the mission of rescuing the female MC who was on the verge of experiencing a life full of suffering and torments.
Side quest 1: Find the female lead. If the mission is completed successfully, your health will be restored.
Side quest 2: Marry the female lead within a week. After the mission succeeds, a new identity will be unlocked.
Side quest 3: …..
Besides completing the side quests that pop up from time to time, he must do his best to love the female lead and let her reach 100 points of happiness.
As a result….
Huo Xiang: Darling, I have cut the fruit for you, let me feed you, ok?
Bai Zhen Zhen’s happiness points: +0.1.
Huo Xiang: Darling, the green tea b*tch2 that came to pick up a fight with you has already been driven out by me.
Bai Zhen Zhen’s happiness points: +1.
Huo Xiang: Darling, I will be busy these days, you will have to play by yourself.
Bai Zhen Zhen’s happiness points: +10.
Huo Xiang: ???
4 STARS - I REALLY LIKED IT
MY REVIEW:
This book was hilarious! Bai Zhen Zhen and Huo Xiang's constant bantering and shameless logic had me laughing throughout the novel. I also loved how they avoided all of the male leads lmao. The way their missions intersected was also funny but sad. Overall, a pretty short but enjoyable read. I loved the ending!

Summary from Novel Updates:
Once she woke up, Gu Xuejiao became the arrogant and willful stepsister of the book’s male lead. Her specialty resided in breaking the relationship between the male and female lead… she is the nth female character.
Gu Xuejiao thought about this character´s ending. A desolate, abhorrent annihilation… and decided it’s better to continue to practice the Wu San workbooks she just finished in her last life.
The Cheng family watched in alarm:
The girl who was rebellious, and only served to let others worry; asked with a simple expression:
“Do you think it’s better for me to apply to Tsinghua University or Beijing University?”
Cheng family: ….
Note: Wu San workbooks is the Chinese version of Barron’s and Princeton’s for the SAT
4 STARS - I REALLY LIKED IT
MY REVIEW:
While the summary makes this books seem like a school life comedy about studying, I was pleasantly surprised at how well it tackled darker subjects like mental health, suicide, and the repercussions of your actions due to stress, pressure, and jealously. It also tackled family relationships really well. Just because you say you're doing it "for your own good" doesn't mean you can force your ideas onto your children and not listen to them. I really liked how Gu Xuejiao and her family slowly worked on their relationship with each other to finally have a happy family that listens and supports each other.
