Description
I possessed the body of the fiancée of the second male lead, who was madly in love with the female lead. He sighed whenever he looked at me, and didn’t hesitate to throw harsh words my way. “Marrying someone like you would be worse than death.” Then go ahead and die, you arrogant duke! It was a superficial engagement. Neither Ricardo nor I wanted it. Besides, I—someone who had possessed this body—had a world I could return to. We’d both be better off going our separate ways. But then, the second male lead suddenly started clinging to me. “Are you planning to go to Leon? Or is it your so-called first love you always talk about?” Was he nervous? The hand Ricardo used to hold me was ice cold. “I know. I know you love Leon.” “…And you’re still doing this?” “That’s why I won’t ask to be your first. First love or whatever—if that matters to you, go ahead.” Ricardo’s eyes began to tremble. “But let me be your last love.”

Treat the Second Male Lead Like a Stone Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on Treat the Second Male Lead Like a Stone
"Treat the Second Male Lead Like a Stone" promised a delightful transmigration romance, and while it has its moments, my reading experience has been a bit of a rollercoaster. The European ambience is definitely there, and the premise of a protagonist trying to navigate a pre-written story is always intriguing. However, the execution left me with mixed feelings.
First Impressions
Initially, I was hooked by the idea of a female lead transmigrating into a novel and deciding to shake things up. The early chapters do a decent job of establishing the setting and introducing the key players. I was eager to see how she would navigate the treacherous waters of the original plot and maybe, just maybe, find love with the titular second male lead.
What Works Well
The world-building is quite charming. The author paints a vivid picture of the aristocratic society, with its balls, etiquette, and underlying political tensions. I also appreciated the protagonist's initial determination to avoid the pitfalls of the original storyline. There's a certain appeal to watching her try to outsmart fate, even if her methods are sometimes questionable.
Areas of Concern
My main issue lies with the portrayal of the first male lead. His initial behavior, particularly his dismissive treatment of the protagonist, is genuinely off-putting. It's hard to root for a romance when the foundation is built on such a shaky, even unpleasant, dynamic. I found myself questioning the choices of the female lead and whether she'd go back to her 'scumbag' fiance. It's a difficult hurdle to overcome, and it significantly impacted my enjoyment of the story.

Final Verdict
"Treat the Second Male Lead Like a Stone" has potential, but it's not without its flaws. If you're willing to overlook the problematic behavior of the first male lead and the occasional inconsistencies in the protagonist's actions, you might find something to enjoy here. However, be prepared for a bumpy ride filled with questionable decisions and potentially frustrating romantic entanglements. Ultimately, I'm on the fence about whether I'll continue reading.
