   I'm not very talented, but this book is actually mine. It's sweet at the beginning and angsty at the end! It's only 42,000 words long, so you can finish it quickly. My friend said she doesn't want to read it a second time!!! I hope everyone will support me! I'm a new author, so please don't be too harsh.

    These two books Neither of them is long; the female lead dies early on, and the male lead dies later as well. The general plot is: the female lead is tortured in the early stages, she dies, the male lead is tortured, he dies, and the ending is a plot twist. But don't worry, there won't be any reconciliation or second chance storylines.

    I have so much to say about this. "If the Forest Had Fairy Tales" is still amazing even now; "You Broke Your Promise" is a popular tragic ending story; the third is a short story I recently discovered that's also very touching; the fourth has many plot twists and is also very good; the fifth is a bit longer, but still very enjoyable.
