   My personal selection of reading choices: The first book is a slice-of-life story about childhood sweethearts; the author writes with great delicacy and gentleness, like reading a collection of essays—very moving, though the pacing is a bit slow. The second book is mainly a high-fighting, action-packed story with less romance and a slight flaw, but the plot is very funny and interesting, providing a nice contrast.

    The first book is one whose rating I personally watched rise from around 6 or 7 to its current 9.2. I want to point out that its initial low rating was due to many people viewing it as a "feel-good" novel, but it's not. It's a standard single-female-lead story, the male lead is incredibly good to the female lead and very skilled at flirting. It's worth noting that this book doesn't have the trope of many female supporting characters falling for the male lead at first sight. Again, it's a male-oriented novel, single-female-lead, a bit intellectually stimulating, and the romance between the leads is sweet. The second book, which I'm currently rereading, is also a single-female-lead male-oriented novel. The male lead is incredibly capable from the start, only listening to the female lead, and later only she can keep him calm. There's a female supporting character who is the first person the male lead falls for; aside from the epilogue, she doesn't have much screen time, but the male lead never dates her, she feels a bit like an older sister. Both the male and female leads are virgins. [Heart emoji]
