Lo que la vida me robó

This is one of the few telenovelas that serve some real lessons to the audience, nowadays it's all about drugs, sex, money laundry this and that but with this one, almost every character had something to tell. I wish it was still on Netflix so I can binge watch again. What a novel, the crew and the cast did such amazing job.

Ok I'm new to the Novelas I'll admit. And I watched this in Spanish with English subtitles. But we binge watched the whole 190 episode in a week that's how addictive it was. I thought it was very well written and incredibly well acted. I saw two bad reviews and I don't get that at all. It was nothing like I've ever seen on American TV. I've seen the lead Actress and Actor before and I think they're amazing as was the whole cast. It was definitely an emotional roller coaster. Maybe I need to see a lot more novelas to compare it to but I've seen a lot of movies and TV and I think this was one of the best things I've ever seen. Bravo to everyone involved.

So I finished this novel today and wow it was so intense, like very intense, it's like nothing I have ever seen before, to me, it's among the best Soap Operas out there. The plot was very different from others and the actors were very good in their roles.. What I liked the most about this novel very much is how they explored every character, like every single character had their own arc and the novel didn't fully centered around only the main characters like most soap operas do.. all the characters were super complex, no one was completely good or evil, they were all quite grey which I think make the novel even more engaging

There were no unnecessary characters, every episode, every scene and every character moves the plot forward. The villains were very compelling and the soundtracks too was super awesome.

There were also no boring moment, something is always happening. Unlike others, this novel never decline, it kept the same charm throughout the entire novel. The story and it's characters will keep you very invested. Ok this may seem like exaggeration but trust me it's not, the novel is that good

However my only complaint is that this novel sometimes normalize so much violence and abusive behaviours, other than that the novel was very well written and directed.. this novel had it's problems I won't lie, but I don't think there's any Soap Opera out there that comes anywhere close to this one in terms of intensity or entertainment value.

Ok so when I saw the poster and read the description, I thought this was a typical love triangle soap opera but I was wrong, I went in with a little expectation and I was blown away after finishing the complete novel.. this novel had it all, action, drama, romance, comedy, thriller, suspense and a little bit fantasy, the twists and turns were also insane. I truly enjoyed this novel

Hmm so going through the reviews but why the hate though? If you are watching a novel and you don't like it then why wasting your time and bundle? Like who even forced you to watch in the first place? This novel was pretty clear from the opening theme that Montserrat and Alejandro will end up together despite everything since they are the protagonist couple, if you don't like the idea or support them why not quit instead of embarrassing yourself and writing hateful comments under here? Make it make sense? Also it's just a Fictional TV show not real life so get over it.. it's not that deep.

This novela was so good, so thrilling and spectacular.. it definitely messed up my emotions 😥 my favourite character was the villain though, Pedro Medina haha.
