The Second Book by Someone Who Can Eat Five Bowls of Rice

A Must-Read Southeast Asian Novel!!!!!

Looking for books similar to Lost in Northern Myanmar, the Spoiled Heiress Runs Away Again (Falling into His Hands). The kind you can't bear to put down and go to sleep after reading.

Looking for a Rags-to-Riches Comeback Story with a Smart Protagonist

Are there any stories without a golden finger, where the protagonist relies on their own wits and abilities to gradually reach the top? Ideally, something that really makes you think. Novels these days are too brainless.

Any Promising New Books?
