Today's post is on My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! Volume 2 by Satoru Yamaguchi, Nami Hidaka (Illustrator), Shirley Yeung (Translator). It is 268 pages long and is published by J-Novel Club. The cover is a beautiful illustration of the three of the main characters. The intended reader is someone who likes fantasy romance novels with some very pretty pictures. There is no foul language, no sex, and no violence in this novel. The story is in first person close of the character moving from chapter to chapter. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From Kindle blurb- After hitting her head on a rock, Katarina Claes regains the memories of her past life, and realizes that she's been reincarnated into the world the otome game she'd been playing. There's only one problem — she's the villainess of the game, who has only bad endings! From practicing with the sword to crafting fake snakes, Katarina has done her best to prepare for all the possible Catastrophic Bad Ends. Now it's finally time for her to enroll in the Academy of Magic, where the story of the game begins. Unfortunately she only finds more trouble there, starting with meeting the one who may spell her doom — heroine of the game! Join Katarina as she tries to avoid all the bad routes, only to end up getting entangled with them in ways she'd never imagined!

Review- We pick up right where the first volume left off with Katarina starting magic school. But Katarina will overcome with her usual over-the-top antics and optimism! She meets the 'heroine' Maria Campbell, who Katarina proceeds to charm her just like everyone Katarina meets. We have a real villain in this volume for Katarina to overcome and she does so by just being herself. The format is the same in this vole as with the first one with the first half of the chapter being from Katarina's perspective and the second from one of the other characters. The game ends at the end of this novel so I am very excited about where Katarina is going to go now that she is free from the bad ends of the game. I cannot wait to find out.

I give this novel a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this novel with my own money.
