If you like independent, smart, hardworking, clever, and/or socially smart female MCs, then this book is not for you. Maybe she goes through a magical girl transformation later (but sorry I'm not willing to wait), but this book is a comedy bc the author wrote a dumb female MC. Yup. You know that's the case because the ML explicitly says how utterly dumb & unmotivated to improve the MC is and that's the author being aware what they are doing.The bonus is that this book is written very entertainingly. So as long as you don't hate dumb characters, you'll eat up this book. I even found the book to be interesting and exciting... which is why I'm disappointed the MC is who she is... Besides food, sleep, and thigh hugging, her mind is not that vast to say the least.This book is a chick fic slap-stick comedy with a MC who is dumb doing outrageous things to "survive" (even though just keeping quiet & studying would have let her survive too... Imo) for humor. Idk. Not my humor tho. Didn't laugh even once.I'm actually really disappointed with this novel. I actually was enjoying it a lot. But the MC started ruining it for me once I realized she doesn't do anything. Logical. She lies a lot too. Which arguably is quick witted if people didn't see through her and snarl at her for it anyways. I'm sure the novel progresses and maybe she changes but I can't handle this anymore. I dislike dumb female MCs... It's too stereotypical. Too many books are like this. Not for me. I'm just the type who would rather have a slightly op character than a lazy, unmotivated, and dimwitted one. (Btw I personally don't think a "normal girl" would think a guy in an alternative ancient china world would know what a psyduck is. Sure who knows how we'd act if we got into a scary world like this as cannon fodder... But to say she is normal and acting in a normal realistic way is. Like. Uh. Ok. Yes "I'd go out to kill a rooster at night even though at this point I know I'm gonna escape from this school soon anyways"... Let's not pretend y'all. The writing is engaging yes entertaining yes but well written ? Uh that's up to you but my definition requires much more character depth than this)
