I'm in Love with the Villainess (Light Novel) Vol. 1 by Inori

lighthearted fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.5

I wanted something lighthearted that didn’t need much brain power to listen to while I worked and decided on this. I was entertained while reading, but disappointed with the problematic elements (lesbian mc keeps hitting on a girl who’s uncomfortable, random incest, ect) Having watched and read many anime/manga it didn’t come at too much of a surprise unfortunately. I’m going to continue cause even though this wasn’t the best, I can see the next book being a lot more fun. As it’s a light novel, the writing is very simplistic, and I thought the translator did a great job making the language feel natural.
