   Reader note

   These three books all feature tragic endings (BE) and are very short!!! 💕① The story is about a girl born into a family that favors sons over daughters. Her parents only want to use the dowry money from her family to pave the way for her younger brother's future. This leads to her being bullied at school because of rumors. Later, only the male lead, who transfers to her school, believes in her. The relationship is very sweet, but it gets very tragic later on 😭 💕② The story is about a girl who is unloved by her parents and lives with her grandparents from a young age. Later, she meets the male lead, who is very kind and pulls her out of her depression. They both get into the same university and have a very sweet relationship. However, the male lead gets sick, and the relationship ends tragically. The female lead also commits suicide. This book is really heartbreaking; it left me feeling so sad after reading it 😭 💕③The story revolves around a girl who suffers long-term domestic violence from her alcoholic father and is bullied at school. During one bullying incident, the male lead stands up for her, and the girl falls for him. However, she later transfers schools, but they end up attending the same high school. The male lead forgets about her. Later, when the girl is bullied again, the second female lead saves her, and they become best friends. The girl continues to love the male lead for five years. The story gets very angsty later on, so go read it! 😭 These three books all have tragic endings and are very short.
