Mini Reviews: The Door of Rebirth, Zombie King Opens a Restaurant in Her Last Days, The Beautiful Lady Is Lonely

Title: The Door of Rebirth
Author: 请叫我山大王
Chapters: 208 chapters + 1 extra
Publication: 2018
Summary from JJWXC:

Two parallel worlds. 

On the day when the apocalypse broke out, the trajectory of history moved to two different lines, completely turning into two completely different worlds. 

One is heaven and the other is purgatory. 

One is the era of peace with red flags fluttering. 

One is the apocalyptic world where zombies are rampant. 

Gu Ning struggled to survive in the apocalypse, trying his best to protect his parents and his loved ones, but was tragically designed to die on the street. 

She wakes up in a strange space. 

One space, one door. If the door is opened once, it is peace, and if it is opened again, it is the end of the world.  

5 STARS - I LOVED IT

MY REVIEW: 

I basically spent most of my work day and sleeping hours reading the first half of this book because it was so addicting. 

This is exactly what I want from a zombie apocalypse novel! A badass female protagonist with intelligence and motive, character growth, weak to strong characters, a team with personality, exciting action and adventure, gradual romance, face slaps and reversals, and most importantly, intense battles with lives at stake! 

Definitely recommend this novel to anyone interested in zombie apocalypse novels.


Title: Zombie King Opens a Restaurant in Her Last Days
Author: Qin Bamboo
Chapters: 120 chapters + 3 extras
Publication: N/A
Summary from Novel Updates:

The greatly feared, the one who could make people tremble with just her name- the Zombie King was back!

She had finally been reborn..

But why was she still a zombie?

As a zombie, she can’t eat the delicacies made by humans. So what? She still had a legendary space where he could raise various animals and even grow crops!

Bittersweet tears roll down her face.

However, along with hardships to face, she had been gifted a lot of perks. She can exchange food for crystal cores~

Then again, making good food had never been an easy task.

To her shock, she discovered that the highest order of zombies was not the tenth order, as claimed before.

3 STARS - I LIKED IT

MY REVIEW: 

I liked how this was from a different POV. Because Fu Ke was a zombie in her previous life and was reborn still as a zombie, her perspective on humans was a lot different than your usual zombie apocalypse novels with humans as the main characters. 

I also like how Fu Ke's main interest was just to live well in the apocalypse. She didn't want to be a savior or a leader; she just wanted to live well with the people she cared about. However, humans always fear zombies and make a lot of trouble, so there's a lot of conflict. 

I wasn't expecting any romance because homegirl is a zombie, but there was actually a tiny bit of romance right at the end. The ending was also pretty rushed. There was a lot of time skips. 


Title: The Beautiful Lady Is Lonely
Author: 桃枝丸丸
Chapters: 155 chapters + 1 extra
Publication: 2021
Summary from JJWXC:

In every world, there are always some female partners who are blinded by love, give everything for the man who does not love him, and are deceived by the scumbag, but they end up in cannon fodder. 

After the awakening, the female partner let Lu Xi shuttle through the world to fulfill her wish for them: Isn't it fragrant to be beautiful alone? 

What man do you want? 

Men will only affect their careers. 

1. The educated youth who went to the countryside 

2. The female partner in the campus article 

3. The outdated female star 

4. The original wife of the Phoenix man 

5. To be determined... 

*Su Shuangwen* has CP, the male lead slices *The lead Su Shuang, daughter career Heart bursting 

4.5 STARS - I REALLY  LIKED IT

MY REVIEW

This was such a satisfying read. 

Lu Xi has to go to different worlds and accomplish her mission in order to resurrect. Each mission is usually to help the original owner live better instead of falling into the quagmire (usually because of a man or a man's family) like the plot intended. 

Each counterattack is great! Why stay with a man when he led to your downfall? 

I also loved how Lu Xi was always learning because she knew that these skills could help her in the future. Everything she learned was transferable for future purposes, so it was great watching her accumulate all of these skills and turning into a veritable force of nature in future worlds. 

The ending was also really nice, and I'm glad that she got her happy ending.
