3.5 STARS - I LIKED IT

MY REVIEW: 

This is another isekai webtoon where a girl finds out that she's transmigrated into a novel and is trying to slowly change her destiny out of debt lol. The problem is that she was a little annoying in the beginning because she stubbornly thought that the main plot of the novel would stay the same even though she set off her own butterfly effect with the male lead. After she gets over that, the plot and characters really took off. 

There was a lot of humor to set off the action and drama, which was amusing, especially the misunderstanding because of a book. I also think Vanessa was a really great OG!FL. She knew her priorities from the beginning lol.

5 STARS - I LOVED IT

MY REVIEW: 

Cain is beyond disgusting, and I can't wait to see Mielle getting even more of what she deserved.

Loved Aria's growth in this season and how her and Asher's relationship is so supportive and funny. Also loved Aria and her mother's relationship. Happy that she'll have her own happy ending.

3.5 STARS - I LIKED IT

MY REVIEW: 

I felt like this series could have ended with season 2. That climax was great! Season 3 felt more dragged out in the name of revenge and spent a long time on the side story, which could have been shortened in half. Glad that it tied up all of the loose ends, but it was going overboard at one point.
