Miss Cousin Wants to Become a Monk Chapter 100 Discussion

Dropped at chapter 100

Honestly, this is a competent rebirth novel. It features the usual - a reborn protagonist who changes things for the better while everyone realises she's changed and their opinions follow suit.

The MC, Xie Miao, married above her station to her (non-biological) cousin. She basically had a cold one-sided marriage and was basically in unrequited love with her husband. Back to her 16 year old self, all she wants is to give up mortal desires and become a nun.

The plot is steady, it's exciting but not too excessively bloody since it's not really a revenge novel. There's also a love triangle which takes up a lot of presence.

I really liked Xie Miao's determination to leave secular life tbh. I think out of alot of rebirth protags, she's most aware of what she wants. Regarding the two men in the low triangle, she realises she can't keep holding a grudge over the future and chooses to let go. But she also know she is incapable of moving forward with them and so chooses her own peace of mind.

Except she doesn't really get the choice. The love triangle resolves and Xie Miao is still stuck in a relationship she did not want. If she had chosen love again willingly, I wouldn't have cared but it just sucks that neither men will allow her that. I mean obviously, assuming a happy ending, eventually her heart will melt and she will choose love again or whatever but I don't feel like slogging to get to that 'happy ending'.
