Overview

Synopsis

Princess Kayena Hill was once renowned as the most beautiful woman in the Empire, but she was nothing more than a puppet. Her life was a tool for her younger brother, Regef, to secure the throne, leading to her brutal death at the hands of a madman. However, after dying a second time in the modern world, she wakes up as the young Kayena once again. Armed with the knowledge of the future and the schemes of the court, Kayena decides she will no longer be anyone's doll. To gain her freedom, she must navigate the dangerous imperial politics, outsmart her tyrannical brother, and secure the alliance of the cold and germaphobic Duke Raffaello Kidrey—the very man who was meant to be her enemy.

Librarian's Notes

Umm... what to say... I read till chapter 30 and can't say I like it, but as usual, josei really isn't my cup of tea. Pretty lady doing pretty things, characters have incestuous undertones, the female lead is strong then becomes a damsel in distress—though the art quality is very good, which is definitely a plus point. Too many cliche plots are mashed together here. The political parts could've been cooler, but I can see what's going on with this webtoon. Reviews on the original platform are quite good, so maybe the problem is me—I just find it generic. I mean, this villainess/otome isekai trend started around 2014, peaked around 2021, and the first one I read was "My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom!" Before I knew it, so many villainess stories popped up with different angles—romance, politics, etc. Maybe the story gets better later on, but I can't see myself finishing this. So I won't recommend it unless you specifically like this genre or this kind of stuff.
