    Reader note

    Family, check this out!! These books today are absolutely addictive 😭 There's a realistic family story where the protagonist always thought their parents favored them the most, only to discover later that the chicken legs were given to the daughter while the house went to the younger brother; there's a satisfying story about a reborn girl who no longer suffers the injustice of her past and instead takes down everyone; there's a story of a wife-chasing saga where the protagonist is arrogant in the beginning but becomes incredibly pathetic later; and there are also sweet romance, historical romance, workplace drama, and even supernatural tales!! I can only say that every single one of them has a hooking opening, and once you start reading, you won't be able to stop 😭! If you're looking for something to read, go for it, you won't be able to sleep early tonight...
