A Painting of the Villainess as a Young Lady

how would anyone rate this from what i can tell it is a very frustrating story. most importantly is the humor good like a romcom because in all honesty’s romcoms are the best and if it isn’t it’s usually bad in my opinion.

It is lol, its like eating sugar, its bad for you but you eat it anyways

Lmao

Start of the novel was good but after that it started to move away from its main traits which make me dislike it a bit, i cant say it really dustanced itself but i dont thinkits that connicted to the main traits.

⬇️dont be like this guy(dont reply u will ruin it.)

Depression? I'm in. I wanna see how her healing process happens.

"I'm really enjoying the story thus far; it evokes strong emotions. Similar to what another commentator mentioned, I appreciate that it's not just about revenge. Instead, it delves into themes of self-discovery and personal healing, which is quite refreshing. Although there aren't many chapters, every one has been a pleasant read for me."

This narrative perplexes me because it intentionally features several characters who are deliberately portrayed as irritating. The main character (MC) and other seemingly well-intentioned characters also find them bothersome, with their annoyance being explicitly highlighted. There's no doubt that the author is not accidentally creating these frustrating characters.

However, these annoying characters persistently populate the story without any significant negative consequences. Despite not having done anything particularly heinous lately, they continue to plague the MC. As a result, readers are left without the gratification of witnessing their comeuppance; instead, they endure a relentless barrage of pestering. Consequently, the reading experience becomes predictably exasperating.

So far, I'm really enjoying this book, and I appreciate that it doesn't carry a "tragedy" label or fall under that genre. Had it done so, it would have been an intense emotional roller coaster, leaving me feeling emotionally unstable. What I particularly love is how the protagonist, FL, isn't fixated on seeking revenge or altering the narrative; instead, she focuses on her own self-healing journey, which resonates with me.

I must admit, this novel really tugged at my emotions, even though there are still chapters missing. I've always been drawn to stories where the main character doesn't undergo an extreme transformation solely due to reincarnation or some other factor. It's important to me that they remain true to themselves, especially when their actions stem from past traumas. I crave a protagonist who isn't apologetic for their past wrongs and isn't eager to reconcile with those who mistreated them.

FL is a deeply tragic figure, someone who feels isolated and alone. She yearns for peace in her melancholic existence, far removed from her dysfunctional family. Despite her genuine love for them, she faces constant hatred from her brothers and a father who failed to support her. As a result, she chooses to live a solitary life.

Thank you, Peaches at Dusk, for the translation. This unique portrayal of a villainess reflecting on her past life offers a breath of fresh air. The protagonist's acceptance of her dual nature seems more genuine compared to a possession story where the occupant recoils from the body's original owner and their actions. I've always found it irksome when people assume selfishness is inherently unnatural or evil. This novel, thus far, has been a soothing read. I eagerly anticipate the upcoming chapters. ^_^

I share many similarities with other readers in my appreciation and disapproval of this novel. Initially, I was captivated by its well-written and beautifully translated early chapters, which evoked strong emotions and even made me shed tears due to the compelling storytelling. However, as the story progressed, the characters and their actions became increasingly difficult to tolerate.

It seems that the fundamental values between the author and myself diverge significantly. I appreciate the author's clear endorsement of healthy lifestyles and rejection of restrictive clothing, but I found the constant leniency towards characters pushing boundaries and their lack of understanding of the concept of 'no' highly unpalatable. Despite being initially drawn by the emotional resonance in the beginning, the novel eventually turned into a frustrating read for me, leading to my low rating, despite my general inclination to rate positively.
