The Lie and What Follows - Chapter 52 - Translator Afterword
Thank you, everyone, for reading to the end of The Lie and What Follows
Anyway, this was fun to translate, and I hope you enjoyed the story too. All the girls are cute~.
Leave all your thoughts in the comments. I don’t usually respond to them, but I’ll make an exception for this final chapter.
Also, #normalise putting recommendations at the end of a series. I don’t know how many times I’ve finished a series and just felt completely deflated. This is why I’ve prepared some more books for you to read.
They’re in a similar style and genre, keeping the vibe that this one left.
Here they are (in order of similarity and my personal taste—I’m a harsh judge btw).

1. The Cute Girl That Everyone Thinks Is Perfect Really Hates Me, But I Know Her Weakness Because I Was Raised In A Lab That Creates Perfect Humans
—My Rating: 10/10 <3
This is a novel that includes an apathetic but incredibly intelligent protagonist. It involves him running into several rom-com-style situations with different girls but mainly revolves around a super-genius traversing the entertainment industry.
The start is a little confusing, so I highly recommend reading at least 5-6 chapters before making a decision. This book is filled with mystery and will keep you curious up until the very end. Trust me. It’s worth it.

2. Yandere Idol vs The Perfect Human
—My Rating: 9/10

A much darker novel compared to the others. It includes, as you’d expect, a yandere. Since it is a psychological thriller, you’ll be kept on the edge of your seat. If you want something that will give you a bit of a kick, try this one out. Similar to some of the other ones, there is a very intelligent protagonist, and there are also parallels to Classroom of The Elite.
It’s definitely worth a shot!

3. I was sold to a dangerous place in order to repay my parents’ debt, and I ended up being bought by a vampire young lady. I became the feed for the beautiful maid.
—My Rating: 7.5/10
This is an exciting, pure romantic comedy that has a much more light-hearted feel. It is filled with plenty of fluff that will make your heart explode. If you want a classic rom-com that also has an exciting twist, this is the novel for you.

4. Gifted Academy: The Perfect Student
—My Rating: 8.5/10

A much shorter title this time, lol. This novel isn’t on Luminary Novels but is instead a Webnovel. It has a plot very similar to Classroom of the Elite, so if you enjoyed that anime, you’d like this. It has a very slow pace, emblematic of web novels, but if you want a long read, take a squiz. There are intelligent students, special exams and, of course, lots of romance.
