    I just found three new good books 📖. The first one is about a protagonist who transmigrates after the original owner of his body has already been killed by ghosts and is expelled from the human realm by his teammates. The protagonist uses a clever scheme to create a powerful, terrifying, yet cooperative pseudo-human image in the eyes of others. Later, he grows stronger with his underlings, leaning towards an infinite flow ensemble style. I think the second one doesn't have a female lead. The protagonist transmigrates and is tormented by ghosts for three years. After fighting back, he eats the flesh and blood of the ghosts and starts actively seeking out and eating them. He joins the national team for intelligence. The third one, as the title suggests, involves the protagonist's crush helping him, but he is betrayed by a rich second-generation and his soul is imprisoned. The protagonist also encounters a ghost but is fortunately saved by his master and begins his training. It leans towards a Chinese horror supernatural ensemble style. Also, I don't know if you like shipping, but it's a male-male CP written by a straight male author, the protagonist x the younger brother. At the beginning, the younger brother is his savior, and then the protagonist keeps going to see him, and they become friends. The younger brother even misunderstands that the protagonist is a male protagonist and bluntly rejects him.

    This is one of the better supernatural novels I've read recently. The whole book follows a rural folk supernatural style, without the exaggerated and outlandish supernatural tropes. The stories are close to everyday life, and the various rural tales, taboos, and themes of cause and effect are written in a very immersive way. There's a bit of suspense, but it's not deliberately scary. The female protagonist has a special destiny; she's prone to encountering strange and supernatural events from a young age. Others don't understand her and ostracize her, unaware that it's her destiny from a past life. Later, she gradually comes into contact with the supernatural world, helping people resolve strange events and resolve past life entanglements. Her growth along the way is very natural and realistic. The story is connected by various short stories about water ghosts, malevolent spirits, and trouble caused by folk taboos. On the surface, it's about ghosts and supernatural events, but it's more about the warmth and coldness of human nature, the law of karma, and the human touch. The writing style is simple and smooth; you don't need to rack your brains to figure out complex settings. You can start reading anytime, and it gets more and more addictive as you go on.
