Description
One day, I realized I had been reincarnated as the female lead’s friend who dies trying to save her in a depressing novel. I steeled myself to confess everything to the female lead, but to my surprise, my words were muted as if to prevent spoilers. Frustrated, I finally ventured into the forbidden forest and shouted my secret at the top of my lungs, cursing the male lead as well. “The male lead is a son of a b*tch!” Though there was no way anyone could have heard it, rumors soon spread far and wide that Grand Duke Bishwaltz, the male lead, was gay. What’s more, he even launched an official investigation to uncover the source of this false rumor… “…Your voice resonates perfectly in my ears.” I think my life is ruined.

My Thoughts on Male Lead, Don’t Follow Me!
First Impressions
"Male Lead, Don’t Follow Me!" is a web novel that immediately sucked me in with its classic reincarnation-into-a-novel premise. We've got a protagonist who's been dropped into a world she only knows through the pages of a book, and she's determined to avoid the tragic fate of the original owner of her new body. The European-esque setting and noble society add a layer of intrigue, and I was instantly curious to see how she'd navigate this dangerous new reality.
What Works Well
One of the strongest aspects of this story is the protagonist. While some might find her a bit naive or even foolish at times, I found her flaws incredibly endearing. She's not a perfect, calculating mastermind, but a flawed, relatable character who's trying her best to protect those she cares about, especially her best friend, the original male lead's childhood friend. Her fierce loyalty and genuine affection for others make it easy to root for her, even when she makes questionable decisions. The author does a good job of establishing why she distrusts the male lead, and I'm invested in seeing how she'll rewrite the original timeline. The plot moves at a decent pace, keeping me engaged and eager to find out what happens next. The novel also has a good dose of comedy.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the story so far, I do have a few minor concerns. The protagonist's naivete can be a little frustrating at times, and I hope she develops more cunning as the story progresses. But overall, these are minor quibbles in an otherwise enjoyable read.
Final Verdict
"Male Lead, Don’t Follow Me!" is a promising web novel with a compelling premise, a lovable protagonist, and a good balance of romance, drama, and comedy. If you're a fan of reincarnation stories with strong female leads and a touch of European aristocracy, this is definitely worth checking out. I'm eagerly awaiting more chapters and excited to see where the story goes.
