Recommend some fresh, original fantasy novels.

Are there any fantasy novels outside those categories? Ideally, something with a fresh premise and theme.

It's really good, unlike any other show I've watched. Because of this, I've been searching for meal replacements online, but haven't found any yet. There aren't many awful characters, the plot is coherent, it's not mindless wish-fulfillment, it's very logical, and there's no system involved. The overall feeling is very realistic. It makes me feel like if I could travel back in time, I could get rich using this! 🧐😄
The novel is very good; it's like watching a period drama. The comments are a bit harsh. People see a man and immediately label him the male lead, but see an older woman and try to elevate her to the level of the female lead's father. That's quite something.
August 14, 2024. Super beautiful. I wonder if there's a male lead. One controversial topic in this book is when the female lead's mother will leave the story? Will she cause trouble for the female lead later on? Simple, home-style cooking, but there's not enough content (I'm urging for more!).
Highly recommend this! It's rare to find a web novel set in Nanning. The female lead is my age, and reading her story felt like reading my own memoir, bringing back many childhood memories, even though our life paths are very different—I was a poor student and broke 🤦.
Awesome!! This fills a void from my childhood reading of male-oriented novels. I always felt that while male-oriented novels were enjoyable, something was missing. Now I realize that what was missing was natural order and logical progression. But Miaomiao is different. Every gain she makes, including family affection, comes from her own efforts; she creates value for others.
It's very good. I read some comments saying the writing style was too formal, but I think it captures the feel of that era, just like in the TV dramas. The writing isn't simplistic; it includes normal minor conflicts, the scene where the father confronts Liu Xu during the performance, and the female lead's reflection on Yuan Yuan's missed performance. I think it's very well written.
So far, it's been a great watch. The female lead, reborn, uses her memories from her previous life to skip grades and pass the high school entrance exam, becoming the top student in her city. She also uses her intelligence to open a restaurant with her father, and the business flourishes, leading to a happy and fulfilling life. Along the way, she encounters many kind and friendly people who support and help her grow. It's a bit slice-of-life, but quite enjoyable.
It's really good, even better than the novels I've read that have a 9.2 Rating. I'm increasingly confused about Tomato (the author of this novel). It's disguised as a wish-fulfillment story, with a saintly female lead constantly helping others—it's ridiculous. How can such a terrible novel get a 9.2 Rating? The author must believe in herself! 💕💕💕💕 This is the best rebirth novel I've ever read. 🥺
This book is amazing!! It's so good, with regional characteristics and culture, ahhh it's simply divine! [Full of joy] The writing is also very good, the female lead has super positive values, and the best part is that the male lead is the female lead's father 🥰
It's so good! When I first read the synopsis, I was like, "Oh my god, why did she jump?" But after opening the book, I realized, "Oh, I see." I have to say, this earnest, insightful, and clever little girl is simply amazing! The book is well-researched, with detailed recipes, and its descriptions of important events are particularly meticulous, making it well worth reading.
