    These are all highly recommended books that I absolutely, positively, and HUGE love. They're all non-romantic. Part 1 is incredibly good, absolutely amazing! I can't even describe it. The female characters are exceptionally well-developed, the best of all. I followed this book on multiple platforms because of it. It truly embodies feminism from the bottom of my heart. I found it very enjoyable. Part 2 is also quite good. The female protagonist in the infinite flow genre has two companions later on, but it's not finished yet. It's very good, I love this kind of genre. Part 3 is also highly recommended! It starts slowly but improves significantly. The story is very well-developed, and the later part, "The Tower of Gods," is particularly good. It's very popular. I'm eagerly awaiting the updates every day. P4 is great! At first, I was a bit put off by this genre, so it sat on my bookshelf without being read. But after reading a few chapters, I found it quite enjoyable. P5 is a Greek-themed book, very good, though I don't know how to describe it. I highly recommend it. It was my first time reading this genre, and it felt very novel and enjoyable. There aren't many books of this type on Tomato Bookstore. P6 is also very good. Don't be fooled by my short reading time; I read many of the earlier chapters on other platforms. The female lead initially pretends to be a noble lady, and the world-building feels quite expansive. It gets really good as you read on, but the author updates too slowly. I've already caught up to the latest chapter.

    This was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the title. Personally, I didn't find it particularly scary, but everything else fits perfectly. It's really superbly written. The female lead is incredibly smart!! And all the other characters in the book are very intelligent! They're like a blazing fire when gathered together, and a sky full of stars when scattered. Moreover, the author's writing style is incredibly delicate, a true master of foreshadowing. After catching up, I definitely want to read it a second time. However, I still recommend it to readers who know a bit about the entertainment industry, especially K-pop, because there are many K-pop terms in the book, but the author usually explains them, or at least provides explanations in the paragraphs. Don't let those things deter you from reading this book TT It's truly worth it.

    These four books are all about metaphysics and ghost hunting, highly recommended! 🔥🔥🔥 1. The female protagonist, who combines live streaming and offline activities, slept for 1500 years. Upon arriving in the human world, she only received two pieces of ghost money from the Emperor of Fengdu. To avoid starving, she had to catch bad guys for rewards, live streaming her fortune telling. When she encountered someone doing something wrong, she would call the police and even use a sewing machine to get them to do it. Even the police would stake out her live stream to boost their sales. 2. The non-live streaming protagonist has a great personality. She's skilled and confident in fortune telling, physiognomy, and feng shui. Each short story is very interesting. 3. It focuses more on justice, friendship, and family. At first, you might think the second brother is a psychologically twisted cannon fodder villain, but he turns out to be a loyal and loving person who cherishes his sister. 4. Ji He is the number one metaphysician in the cultivation world, only one step away from ascension, but she inevitably fails her tribulation. 😂 She thought she was doomed, but when she opened her eyes, she had become Ji He in another world. She's still a nobody, and to make a living, she has to rely on her skills to tell fortunes online for those she meets.

    Xin Zhixia, a disillusioned and hopeless individual, decides to end her life by jumping off a building. However, just before she leaps, a mysterious man appears, not only failing to dissuade her but also asking if she's willing to die for him. Thus, she unexpectedly finds herself in an alternate dimension called Death Space, beginning a series of deadly games. Here, winners receive rewards, while losers are all eliminated. Completing the game and accumulating points might allow for resurrection and a return to the real world. But for Xin Zhixia, resurrection is unimportant; what matters is—she can die, but she cannot lose the game!

    Reader note

    Highly recommended! It's a female-centric story with no romantic pairing. The female lead is intelligent and not at all brainless. Every level is incredibly meaningful, and the friendships developed in the middle are like an ensemble piece. It's absolutely fantastic and the kind of story you can't stop watching once you start.

    Reader note

    The first book is a micro-growth novel where the female protagonist travels the world in a coffin. The plot is smooth and complete, and while it's somewhat bland, it's also quite engaging and comfortable to read without any major flaws. It's suitable for readers who need to think critically. The protagonist's "golden finger" (advantage/power) isn't overly strong; all her actions are logical and not abrupt, relying on her wisdom. Overall, it's very well-written. The second book is a non-romanceable, no-romance, strong female protagonist in an infinite flow novel. The female protagonist's character is very likable; she's powerful, doesn't retaliate unless provoked, and usually settles scores on the spot. She remembers kindness shown to her and repays it later. The plot is smooth, the logic is clear, and the underlying themes reflect social issues.
