The Villainess Lives Twice

interesting plot and characters. a wonderful romantic line for those who do not like too romantic works. and while reading you believe that the heroine is really that smart, it doesn't seem too farfetched

Good read. It's not as intense as some of the Chinese web novels I have read but still was able to push through in reading this. The plot is okay. And based on the reviews of others, a lot of people seem to enjoy reading this as they have also read the manga version

good read. not a pushover, not stupid. very good plot. good characters over all. definitely recommended if you like politics/drama. even the side characters are good.

One of the two novels with a regressor villainess that I would recommend to anyone. The characters and romance are great. The mc is cunning smart and furthest thing you could have from a pushover. And unlike other court dramas she actually gathers military power on top of political intrigue

You have got to read this story. Firstly, the characters are all complex. Secondly, probably the only time I'm seeing it, but the effect of large scale time reversal magic having unintended consequences is really well done. Artizea is not the only one with memories of the past life, others either have them right from the get go or slowly start to get back their memories piece by piece over time. The first suspicion of that being so is Cedric, who dreamed after meeting her for the first time that Artizea would be badly hurt and he should protect her, but couldn't see quite clearly how or what happened. And knowing the consequences of previous actions, having to ask yourself whether it's worth it to do it again, or to try something differently, especially when you don't know you've rebirthed and why you have these memories, I've rarely seen that in rebirth novels. It's very well written. I'm currently at chapter 101, and funnily enough, the character I have biggest expectations of is Lawrence. You'll see why by then. Pay attention during chapters 99 to 101.

Loved it. I started reading the novel after finishing the manga. Really a good read for strong and intelligent FL. Though the update seems a bit slow now.

I just want to say that this is my favorite web novel so far. I love that the main character is not only smart and cunning, but also not afraid to manipulate and dispose of others. Most other novels have naive girls as protagonists or clever and honorable women that don’t dare to hurt others even when necessary. I’m glad we finally have someone that is not a goody-goody.

This is a well-written story but it didn't leave me with awe. The author couldn't find the right balance between romance and plot.

Here are some notes I took while reading:

-In their first meeting if FL broke the wheel intentionally, how did she know that ML would go to the temple that day? Did I miss something?

-Miraila is too petty for this story. I guess it's okay since those people really exist in some ways. She is basically nuts.

-I'm at chapter 40s and the romance levels are quite unsatisfying.

-Lawrence acting mildly good in this timeline. Wow. He stays low because of selfish reasons but wow.

-Chapter 59 was the first kiss huh. Took long.

-Character's saying each other's names between sentences are getting very frequent and annoying. I hope the author realizes this problem.

-Chapter 110: FL and ML got separated for so long and seems like it's gonna stay like that a while. I mean the story getting very mild at this point. Before that, they weren't together often either. I'm cutting one whole star because of this. I hate long separations.

Finally Cedric confess his feelings to tia. Now just waiting for tia to full accept Cedric as lover and husband and let go the past. But when a lot flashback, even in the past, Cedric do fall in love in secret with tia but tia was Lawrence’s sister by that time.

I love me a Tia. She's just so inspiring. Good but evil and then some! All these villainess protagonist got me here wishing I've done some crazy evil deeds and go relive myself LOL
