I Don’t Want to be a Magpie Bridge is so cute. The friends to lovers trope is well executed. Feb 16, 2023

      favorite rofan novel I read in 2022 was “If You Remove the Kind Protagonist’s Mask”. Definitely recommend reading the manhwa ^^

      Hey! I just wanted to drop a quick note to say thank you for all of your recommendations and reviews!! I’ve followed you on Tumblr for a bit and recently realized you had an account over here as well. I read The Secret Wardrobe of the Duchess because of your comment on The Duchess with an Empty Soul’s spoiler thread and thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you for taking the time to share your opinions

      Hello! I am JuniperBluePen! I'd been following your translations of Side Story and was saddened that you are unable to continue. Would it be okay if I take over the translations? I have never done official translations work before so is there anything I need to do in order to adopt it (eg. get author permission?) Thank you for all the hard work you did in translating this until now!! I thoroughly enjoyed it!

        @JuniperBluePen Hi! Yes, feel free to continue my translations. In terms of author’s approval, I didn’t really get anything like that. However, I did make it a point to leave the links on how readers can purchase the original work so that they can support the original author if they want to. Cheers!

      What a ride Arc 1 of Under the Oak Tree was. I love angst so I’ll keep reading. The writing in this one is so solid! Up there with Lucia.

      Just finished MTLing Materialistic Princess. The series was so much fun and reminded me of Miss-Not-So-Sidekick!

        Unlucky. I’ve no idea who that is. But I’m guessing a kpop group?

      I’m not sure if the author is being unironic about the values she portrays in Under the Oak Tree or whether its a commentary on female roles

      Hi~, I saw in a comment that you wrote in "Duchess with an empty soul" that you have the raws, can we exchange ?, I have the raw of other novels, "Beware of those brothers", "Miss not-so sidekick", "A fairytale for the villains ", and 2 more, but don't remember their english tittle.

      I am a newbie to the translated novels world. Please recommend your must reads! I enjoy any female-led Isekai novel with a steamy romance.

    I’ve always been an avid reader since I was young. I love YA Fantasy, my favorites being the Six of Crows and Winner’s Curse series, as well as any book by Marie Lu. I also dabbled into fanfiction, reading fanfics containing up to a million words.

    At the moment, I am obsessed with the contract marriage trope. I currently love romance stories with lots of angst but also lots of skinship from the main couple.

    I discovered NU last year. Check out my reviews.

    Meanwhile, some favorite novels I’ve MTLed are:
    • The Former Wife of Invisible Wealthy Man - I love the plot and the MCs are quite likeable.
    • Duchess with an Empty Shell - I personally prefer the novel, especially since the manhwa doesn’t entirely capture Claude’s POV. I’ve translated a portion here (password: summoner).
    • Side Story (currently translating) - really fluffy story with likable leads

    I am currently translating one of my favorite kr novels, "Side Story". Please check it out :)
