The Villainess Reverses the Hourglass

Sloppy writing, bad translation and the manhwa and novel have major differences. Romance is very overshadowed by revenge (which is not really the main problem) and male lead is so one dimensional. It gets really bland after the revenge part. There are many plot holes as well.

1. Fl is just straight off dumb and stupid and evil. I agree with the fact that she was able to succeed only because she knows the future.

2. The author didn't even try to make intelligent villains. Okay it makes sense that MR is dumb but IF?? Really?

3. The romance is straight cliche. I mean cliche romance can be nice if written well but this? It feels forced. When the ml appears the problems magically solve, there's no difficulty while fighting the villains. It feels as if the author wanted to create a power couple but made something so forced instead. As a couple can you believe they don't have a single fight? Even after getting married? Ml is like not touching her cause she's underage but then they start making out the moment he finds out that's her second life. What a hypocrite.

4. The author has to signify in every single chapter that the fl is from "humble" status but then in the end she's not and it feels so unnecessary!

5. The mom and fl are really way too evil! They suck up all the money from the count and when he's injured, they leave alone to die. Even if he ignored you, you were able to live a rich lifestyle thanks to him! Call for gratefulness here!

6. When every revenge is finished, it feels so plain and boring. I mean the romance never felt exciting anyway, the ml (with no personality) exists for fl, there's no chemistry whatsoever and the only reason to read, revenge, ends. It feels draggy from then on and the manhwa also adds some more unnecessary plots to it. I have never wanted to skip chapters so bad (even in plain chinese dog blood drama novels).

I can't believe I used to like this when I was young. It's only now I realised how problematic this is!
