Alright, for this Webtoon Wednesday, I have an isekai manhwa ARC from NetGalley. I’ve definitely seen this manhwa all over Twitter/X and being promoted on Tapas. Although I’ve grown a bit tired of transmigration webtoons lately, I thought this one might be worth checking out since it’s being brought to print. When I saw it on NetGalley, I couldn’t resist. My younger sister has also taken a liking to manhwas. I bought her My Gently Raised Beast and a few others last time I visited, but I like to read everything I buy her beforehand just to double-check I’m not actually buying anything super scandalous for a 13-year-old.
From cooking to alchemy to even brewing tea, Ailette Rodeline is a certifiable child prodigy—but she’s got a secret weapon on her side: she’s a transmigrator! Having purchased an insurance package at the moment of her untimely death, Ailette has the perks of a top-tier support system and item shop to fall back on…and she’s going to need all the help she can get! Will Ailette be able to survive in the world of a notoriously brutal time-loop novel or will she rise to the challenge and prove herself to be an S-class heroine?

Firstly, the reviews for this one are overwhelmingly positive, and I absolutely agree that the artwork is beautiful. This will most likely be a glossy print, lol. And of course, thanks to NetGalley and Yen/IZE Press for the eARC ~
After dying, she gets sent to the transmigration waiting room and picks “childcare romantasy novel” as her genre, thinking that’ll be the easiest. I mean, are we reading the same genres?? Doesn’t that usually mean she’s going to get abused for years by some evil count or something? The obvious answer is comforting the cursed/warlord/traumatized duke of the north. At least she got insurance, I guess. 🤷♀️
Regardless of her questionable transmigration genre choices, I did really enjoy her character. This story isn’t particularly unique compared to other transmigration novels; however, what sets it apart is that it’s just well done. From the humor, art, dialogue, translation, and more—everything is executed beautifully.
After I finished reading, I really wanted the next volume. It’s not like it ended on some huge cliffhanger; it was just weirdly addicting.
Although this isn’t my favorite genre, it is indeed the perfect gift for my sister. This is the perfect book for younger kids interested in manhwa/manga. It says recommended for 13+, and I think that’s accurate (sometimes it is not, lol).
