What Life Took from Me

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 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.

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.

I don't really like this show it is the same old drama TV show that would be on MTV except without the "reality" part in it. It uses the same old TV romance tactics the 2 Guys and 1 Girl. Which is so Cliché it could have a lot more potential if it was more original you could find hundreds of shows and movies based on romance about 1 girl and 2 guys wanting her which is for sure to stir up drama. I think the potential of the actors could be so much more if they just had good show script writers that probably thought of a more unique plot. Then the show would be a good drama show. The Actors are good but the plot is not as good and could use some improvements.

This series is a remake of 80s hit, Bodas De Odio, and 2004 Amor Real. So far, this series doesn't even come close to Amor Real. The actress is too slutty to be innocent Matilde, or in this case, Monserat. Her acting sucks and her fake breasts do nothing to favor her. I have watched Amor Real four times already, and every time it is a joy to watch. Seeing one episode of this "entertainment" is excruciating. Do not waste your time watching this garbage. Go to YouTube and watch Amor Real; trust me, it wont disappoint. Now that is a series that is epic and is worth watching. Adela Noriega does a wonderful job as the innocent Matilde. Fernando Colunga does a great job as Manuel, the loving husband who's world crashes down when he discovers Matilde's deceptions, and Mauricio Islas is an enchanting Adolfo Solis, who loves Matilde to death. Now that is a series, not this garbage
