Light Novels and Manhwas I'm Currently Reading Part 1
A medieval romance between Maximillian, a count's daughter and Riftan, a strong and brave knight with a low social status. Maximillian is a very shy girl who has no confidence in herself and has a stuttering problem, rooted in her abusive and neglected childhood. The story focuses on their relationship which starts off as a planned engagement (cold and almost hostile relationship) and evolves into true love as Riftan and Maxi get to know each other. Maxi also starts to gain confidence in herself and her abilities as she is away from her abusive father & she is now with a man who cherishes her. Character development is great and realistic, smut chapters are also good. The manhwa is at chapter 13 whereas the light novel is at chapter 114.
The Evil Lady's Hero / Villainess in Love 8/10
Isekai story where the protagonist wakes up as the villainess in the story she's been reading. The villainess is the male lead's ex-girlfriend and she is destined to get killed as she is hostile to the female lead in the story. The protagonist spends her life trying to stay away from the main leads as much as possible in order to avoid her death but one day wakes up with the male lead & realizes that they had a one night stand... The story is light-hearted, funny and very lovely overall. The villainess is very witty, bold and empathetic. The original female lead's obsession with her and the male lead's yandere-like affection toward her is still a mystery at this point though (I haven't read the light novel). The manhwa is at chapter 44.
Lucia, who has prophetic dreams, has a disturbing and occurring dream about her future as the wife of an old, abusive man who will ruin her life eventually. She wants to take her future into her own hands and proposes to Duke Taran who's infamous for his cold heart and sexual promiscuity in order to escape from her terrible fate. Their marriage has an important condition: She will not fall in love with him. I started to get bored after a while because everything was going "too great" but the background story of the Duke is really interesting. The light novel is fully translated (I guess?) and the manhwa is at chapter 58.
It Looks Like I've Fallen into the World of a Reverse Harem Game 10/10
Isekai story where our protagonist wakes up as the villainess in an otome game. It seems cliche enough but one of the interesting things about this story is that the villainess can see the options and choices of the heroine. The villainess is a truly cruel and heartless character who takes men as her concubines and other horrible things she has done (before our protagonist possessed her body) unravels with the story. In order to survive in this game where she dies in almost all routes, she has to play multiple mind games with the heroine of the story. Mind games, spicy plot, characters with interesting personalities (and not only male leads too!), heavy themes, gorgeous art... I adore this manhwa. I wish I could find the light novel 😔 The manhwa is currently at chapter 33. (I'm reading it from mangadex and the translators are HILARIOUS)
Everything was a Mistake 6/10
After her death, the protagonist reincarnates as the villainess in a novel (yes isekai). In order to avoid her death, she befriends the male lead and tries to get on his good side. The strange thing happens after they become adults: The original female lead of the novel comes to her and says that the male lead is actually a vicious villain. So our protagonist messes it up by getting close to the ML in the first place. The ML really is an eerie person who can use black magic, read people's thoughts and brainwash them. However, our protagonist is the only person he truly cares about, so you can guess how it goes. Good story, nothing more nothing less. The light novel is very behind of the manhwa, which is at chapter 22 currently.
