   All of them are pretty good. Actually, my favorites are books 4 and 6, which were the first two I finished reading. The female lead in book 4 is very smart, and while there's a male lead, he's not very prominent. It's like, how should I put it, she includes everyone in her mind, including her next life. Then, book 6 is about steady, step-by-step progress, which is very good. "Game Invasion" is also very good. The early part of the story might be based on a melodramatic premise, but it's not actually that melodramatic; it's essentially a melodramatic story, in my opinion. However, it gets much better later on. "The Mysterious Mist" is an infinite flow novel and is also very good; the female lead is very smart.
