Villains are Destined to Die is one of my favorite Manhwa to read, so when I saw the light novel I had to have it. Is the writing the best? No, but it encompasses everything the manhwa is. It’s about a girl who wakes up inside her dating sim game, which is inherently unserious, but her struggle to live is just the opposite. Vol one does a good job of letting you meet and get to know all of the key players, and having you pick a favorite. (Eckles my crazy crazy boy and Callisto you insane bastard I love you both) It is, if nothing else, a very fun time. I couldn’t recommend it more. Unfortunately this book uses the globally accepted past tense “sneaked” which I hate. Other than that though I enjoyed it. Also a big thank you to NetGalley for allowing me to read it!
