Once Upon Another Life (✧ω✧)

★★★★★ — 5/5

I own all the novels and I'm collecting the physical manhwa volumes. I just wish the game from the story actually existed!

It's been so long since a protagonist captivated me as much as Penelope. I absolutely adore this story, from its character development and carefully crafted arcs to the way everything comes together without leaving loose ends. Penelope and Callisto's relationship is wonderful, and their romance makes the story better ♡

I adore Athanasia, and I've started collecting the physical manhwa! The plot twist was incredible, but what touched me most was watching her relationship with Claude grow from fear into genuine father-daughter love. That bond is my weakness!! I love that Jennette isn't a stereotypical cruel villain, even if I wanted to shake her sometimes!

I got so attached to Athy that I wish I could've followed her into adulthood. ♡

★★★★★ — 5/5

I've reread this countless times, and I still adore Ruby and Izek! I'm a sucker for enemies-to-lovers, especially when a grumpy man becomes fiercely protective of the one he loves.

Their feelings develop so naturally, without anything feeling rushed or forced. I hate Ruby's family, especially Cesare (annoyingly handsome as he is).

But watching Ruby and Izek slowly learn to trust and love each other is what makes this story so special to me. ♡
