Description

Jiang Dao died extremely heroically in the apocalyptic world war. He never thought that he would have a chance to open his eyes again. He traveled through, into a danmei book he had read, and became a vicious villain in the book. Jiang Dao thought to himself: “After more than ten years of fighting for my life in the last days, I’m tired, so what am I fighting for? It’s better to be a vase. Use my face to finish the brokerage contract, and then find a corner in the world with beautiful scenery and live a peaceful life of growing vegetables, cooking, and raising cats and dogs…” So, he returned the role that the original owner had snatched from the protagonist shou on the spot. Unexpectedly, in the variety show that started shooting the next day, Jiang Dao performed a shoulder toss and threw the current number one kung fu actor, Chu Yinlong, to the ground. Chu Yinlong: Boy, you have successfully caught my attention. My new movie, the villain, can fight, you come. Jiang Dao: …Sorry, I’m just a vase. ———— In a later interview. A reporter asked Chu Yinlong: “How would you rate your perfect partner, Mr. Jiang Dao?” Chu Yinlong replied: “A vase.” Reporter: “How can a kung fu superstar as famous as him be a vase?” Chu Yinlong: “Diamond vase. Precious, beautiful, hard enough.”

My Thoughts on After Entering a Book, He Just Wants to be a Flower Vase

"After Entering a Book, He Just Wants to be a Flower Vase" promised a fun twist on the transmigration trope, and for the most part, it delivered. I found myself chuckling along with the MC's fish-out-of-water experiences, and the romance was genuinely sweet. While it wasn't perfect, it was a lighthearted and enjoyable read that I would recommend for a chill time.

First Impressions

The premise immediately hooked me: a hardened survivor from an apocalyptic wasteland transmigrates into the body of a celebrity in a peaceful, modern world. It's a fantastic setup for comedic misunderstandings and character growth, and the story definitely capitalized on that. Jiang Dao, our MC, is delightfully straightforward and surprisingly calm given his background. I was also pleased that the original novel's protagonists weren't turned into villains; a refreshing change from the norm.

What Works Well

The character of Jiang Dao is the shining star. His contrasting personalities, shaped by his past life, made him incredibly interesting. The author did a great job of weaving his trauma and experiences into his new life, which added depth to his actions and motivations. I also appreciated the refreshing take on the entertainment industry setting, with a focus on action films and the creation process. The ML, Chu Yinlong, is a doting and supportive partner, and I enjoyed their dynamic. The healthy communication between them, especially when addressing insecurities, was a pleasant surprise.

Areas of Concern

While I enjoyed the story overall, it wasn't without its flaws. The pacing felt a bit uneven at times. The first half of the book grabbed my attention, but the latter half felt slightly less engaging. The plot seemed to meander a bit, and I felt that the author could have delved deeper into the emotional aspects of the story. While the slice-of-life elements were enjoyable, the lack of significant conflict sometimes made the narrative feel monotonous. Additionally, the constant inclusion of the MC in every project with the ML felt a bit forced and unrealistic.
