This is just….not it.

I don’t mind stories with dark themes or scenes, and I can tolerate stories that would be morally dubious in real life. I understand that it’s just fiction, and it’s just meant to be a place to safely indulge in certain fantasies.

So when I say this story just does not hit, it’s not coming from some sort of moral grandstanding place.

Genuinely, just none of the characters feel likable and I don’t care for them to succeed or fail really.

Even the MC just seems dumb to a degree that is kind of ridiculous. Like, you chose the certifiably WORST way to get Khalid/Hallid out of your house to save him? Like, why - make it make sense.

After that, every other guy sucks hard rocks. Any sympathy the ML could have gotten from a his backstory has dribbled away like jam out the back end of a sandwich.

I can’t even find enjoyment as a revenge story, because the plot around the revenge feels half baked.

All in all, this story just feels pointless and so I don’t really care to finish it

Moonpyeong Seok, a lowly grunt of the Demonic Sect, never expected to be dragged into the deadly str...

In fairness, queerbaiting is a tactic producers will at least lean into even with idols as a sort of marketing gimmick.
But bro I think if they’re acting

I’ve seen worse, but I still didn’t care for it…it wasn’t cute enough to be fluffy or emotional enough for the angst to matter, so it kinda just felt like a flop by the end

Like, it’s an enjoyable read all things considered.

But even if I’m enjoying it, I can’t deny how dumb some story parts are

Like, some moments start to come across as clever or line up nicely; and then there are moments like when her father finds them at the manor.
Like, girl, even if it’s takes time for info to get back to your old house, why are you surprised he found out where you were??? You had an extremely dramatic and public marriage announcement with your real name! How did you not plan for this lol

But again, idk why, but I’m still enjoying the ride regardless

Uh, for the sake of brevity:
Pros:
MC’s plant interest is fairly well handled; it’s not like most of these stories where a hobby/interest/career turns into her entire character
MC’s mom - I like how well her perspective was handled, balancing sympathy and her accepting responsibility for her actions towards her daughter still
The sister attacking the dad - hell yeah fuck’em up; it doesn’t excuse her actions at all, but I feel some pity at least given she was kind of groomed by him? Like yeah, no shit she’s got damage look where it’s coming from

Cons:
Really feels like the story is dragging its feet to her “confrontation” with her family; why have all these sweet moments to build their relationship after arriving in the capital specifically to meet her family?
ML not explaining anything; like wdym “trust me”? Why not just explain it now? You had no problem sufficiently explaining it later. Also why is the ring made with fake gems again? Like was there an actual point to it, or is it him again working AROUND the point of how he loves her “counterfeit” or no
Just general kind of plot beats that don’t really make sense upon scrutiny- ex: why did the dad shower the other daughter with “affection” as an investment but do literally nothing for the other? If you want to sell them off, why so preferential?

All in all, the story isn’t bad, but it’s not stellar either - kind of basic at its best moments

….and this wasn’t all that brief in the end huh

The Devon family sits on a mountain of debt and they are on the brink of bankruptcy. This is no faul...

After reading out of morbid curiosity, I'd rather have read a story about the Saint and General, and whatever they've got going on. Though, not so sure the author would handle a whole story about them any better than this...
