Devil’s Warmth Chapter 52 Discussion

Okay so let's talk. Going into this novel I had very high expectations looking at the other reviewers, and I have to say I'm somewhat- maybe dissapointed. Not to say, that this isn't good novel, I've given it a 3/5 star review but I don't think I can go on. (Although there is a lovely recount over every event at the spoiler thread, which I did read.)

This novel centers about Bei Yao (our MC) who in her last life acted as a replacement/scapegoat to her sh*tty ex-bf Huo Xu. In this life she is reborn as her 4 year old self who Spoiler

remembers her last life in full and writes down the main events that led to her death. Then after she loses most of her memories. Although with every year she grows up she gains a couple years knowledge in advance until her 3rd year of highschool where her memory of the future stops.

The one sentiment that our Bei Yao remembers is that she should act kindly towards Pei Chaun. This is either out of respect for what he did for her in their last life or in hopes of reforming this "devil."

So let's talk Pros:

-This novel will probably never bore you. We go through this journey from their childhood to adulthood. I found that through most of the novel I was rooting for both of them.

-The main characters: Bei Yao is a sweetie. She's not a Mary Sue but acts very human like. She does what she can and she isn't too OP except for a bit of knowledge for the future that she uses for her studies. Pei Chaun- I could deeply feel his struggles with feeling inadequate and self-esteem struggles. Through most of this novel, Spoiler

he doesn't allow himself to ever think of the MC and him together because of his disability. This often causes him to make certain choices or extreme decisions because he believes it's what he deserves.

-The relationship can be very sweet.

-There's a lot of intrigue in past events for Bei Yao in her last life/family drama for Pei Chaun.

Cons:

(For me at least)

- This novel can be quite frustrating in how dramatic some of the events turn. As an example Spoiler

the ML Pei Chaun turns himself into the police for his computer dealings in the underworld and doesn't try to advocate for a better sentence since he doesn't believe he deserves it. He mainly does this as he feels it'll be better for the MC.

Another example is how the Spoiler

ML beats a wild dog (infected by rabies) to death after it almost harms MC's baby brother.

Although I don't mind dramatic things most of the time, I wasn't under the impression that this novel would be like that so that's why I would describe it as a con.

If you're okay with a bit of angst, dramatic moments, etc. Give it a chance. A lot of other reviews loved this. :)
