Read the abbreviated advertisement manga. Decided I wanted to see how it ends, so I picked up the light novel from the beginning. It's interesting how the tone managed to shift from its predominantly silly comedic tone to something possibly more serious toward the end. That or I'm reading too much into it.
Halfway through the story, we'll see how volume two wraps things up.

I read this in small doses at night, when I was swamped with work and fell sick. It's truly a hilarious and gleeful read, especially if you like a main character with a sadistic streak. The book begins with the classic villainess story opening scene, where Rachel gets dumped in public by her stupid fiancé who's fallen in love with another girl. Rachel is falsely accused of bullying and thrown into prison, and that's where she's slowly plotting her revenge while enjoying slow life in prison.
Yes. Slow life in prison.
Some might argue that Rachel might be too much, and that she's a "psycho" for the things she's done to others. However, I couldn't care less about morality in fiction so I find her actions very satisfying. The prince, his girlfriend, and his entourage are all so refreshingly stupid, and there isn't a single moment when I feel bad for them. If anything, I hope Rachel will keep going until they're thoroughly crushed.
It seems like this is a two-volume series, so the story won't get dragged out unnecessarily. Can't wait to see what Rachel is going to do next.
