   The first book was so outrageous, I laughed non-stop. The second book, "The King of the Sea," made me wonder if the author was a real "sea king" (a term for a player who enjoys romantic relationships). The third book had an interesting female lead who used her spatial abilities to steal things and help the male lead rebel in his exiled land. The fourth book was very novel; the female lead was a clan god who helped her people.

   I've read over forty chapters of the first book. The hatred and disgust between the two characters are real, just from different perspectives and standpoints, but the love is also real. It feels like a delightful tale of arch-rivals. The second book is also about rivalry; both characters are very powerful, but the romance develops slowly. It's over a hundred chapters now, and there's no hint of romance yet. Chapters 3, 8, 9, and 10 are by the same author, so the young couple doesn't have any misunderstandings. If you like strong, sweet romance novels, this one is worth reading. The supporting characters are intelligent and well-developed. The fourth book is slow-paced, with a confession on May 20th. The characters are currently close to reaching the Golden Core stage. I think the writing is excellent, and the plot is good too; although slow, it's not dragging. The fifth book has too much internal dialogue and excessive emotional expression, but the character and plot settings are quite good. The sixth book feels different from typical reincarnation stories where the protagonist sees things clearly in their past life. I feel that the protagonist and the other character had feelings for each other in their previous lives, but they missed their chance, which is why I quite like it. The seventh book updates very slowly and has quite a few typos. Perhaps for some reason, the author wanted to finish it quickly, so some supporting characters who seemed important in the beginning are gone, and there's less romantic description; the focus is now on the plot. Books 11, 12, and 13 are also by the same author, who likes to write stories with beautiful tops and strong bottoms; both are worth reading.

   The first one has good writing and well-developed characters, so I recommend reading it. The second and third ones are by the same author, and I personally think they're among the best in this genre by Tomato (the author of the first book). The author has a great imagination, doesn't follow clichés, and it's very engaging. The fourth one is my top pick among Tomato's episodic novels. All twenty main characters in this book are beautiful, strong, and tragic, each with their own story and distinct personalities. I personally think the author focuses more on polishing the plot than the writing style, but the writing is very comfortable to read. The fifth one probably needs no explanation; I think Ming Si (the author of the first book) is quite famous, and the university arc is really well-written. The above are my subjective evaluations. Those who are extremely dissatisfied with my opinions should refrain from expressing them here. Those who agree with my opinions or wish to discuss the book's content with me should use rational and polite language. Finally, I sincerely recommend these good books to everyone and hope to exchange ideas with you all. Feel free to leave a comment (limited to readers who are at least 15 years old, can truly appreciate the flaws in most of AI and Tomato's bad books, have read all the classics from nine years of compulsory education, and have some basic literary knowledge). Feel free to recommend books to me (I read a wide variety of books but not fluffy, diary-like, nonsensical, Frankenstein's monster, or completely stale tropes). I hope to meet like-minded readers here.

    The protagonist of this book isn't invincible; he's undeniably powerful and has impeccable morals, yet he's constantly self-doubting and self-critical, harboring darkness within himself while shining like the sun for his teammates. It combines the readability of online novels, the humor and up-to-date references of modern literature, with the depth and philosophical rigor of a literary work. It's a free-flowing, unconventional story, not a wish-fulfillment fantasy, and the protagonist is highly intelligent. Each character is fleshed out and relatable, with no instances of characters lowering their intelligence to advance the plot. Even in a cruel world without rules, they strive to uphold their principles, and I haven't found any major flaws. Here, you'll encounter Bazi (Four Pillars of Destiny), Plum Blossom Divination, and a group of people who refuse to compromise their ideals. The author avoids stereotypical portrayals of the protagonist encountering figures like Li Bai, Cao Zhi, Wang Anshi, Qianlong, Kafka, and Xunzi… The author wrote with great patience, having read their works before creating the character. I'm at a loss for words, so here's a poem the author wrote for the protagonist: Partridge Sky - Entering a dream, yellow jade flutters, carrying the fragrance of the moon; Unaware of cold or warmth, drinking freely and wildly. Ink stains not, yet the soaring bones remain; The vast sea and starry river are ever-present garments. My body is like a wisp of cotton, my dreams like fleeting illusions. The unfinished book is written in blood. A new grave buries the tales of love and hate; the lonely laurel tree dies in the falling snow.

    The first book had a very novel premise: the female protagonist was framed by a member of her sect and transformed into a sword spirit (the pain only made her more aware and clearer about what she truly needed). It was super cool! The second book was very fun; the phrase "You can see it" runs throughout the entire story [laughs]. The third book was very enjoyable; it's the best Detective Conan book I've read so far! \(//∇//)\

In reality and in the alternate reality, will you choose to succumb or stay clear-headed? 3. To escape fate, one must consciously approach the queen without compromise.
