   Reader note

   ✨These are all great novels featuring strong, non-naive female leads. ✨The first novel features a female lead with her own career, not love-struck, and a seemingly harmless but actually very lovable character. Her relationship with the male lead is also very sweet. ✨The second novel features a female lead who is a food blogger and runs her own inn. She is independent and strong. She and the male lead are not very close yet [laughing emoji]. ✨The third novel features a female lead who is a university professor, with a strong aloofness and high intelligence. Her love story with the male lead is also very sweet. ✨The fourth novel features a female lead who is independent and strong to the point of being heartbreaking, with very positive values. These are all very nice books I've read, all without any angst. The fourth book might have a tiny bit of angst, but you can enjoy it without worry.

    Everyone should check out this book. The female lead is strong, but it's not some nonsensical, alternate-identity story. The scope of this book is incredibly broad. While narrating the main characters' storyline, the author also touches upon societal issues concerning women. Moreover, both the male and female leads have exceptionally strong moral values. Before truly acknowledging their relationship, they both follow their hearts and live for themselves. They redeem each other and move towards mutual support. Later in the story, their words about love are very righteous; they both know what they want. What attracts me most about this book is its incredibly broad scope. Societal issues concerning women are still evolving, and public opinion is shifting dramatically. This book is very realistic and reasonable, not at all clichéd. The content and main plot are also amazing. In short, everyone should read it; this book doesn't deserve the current rating.
