    That has to be Xia Xiaolan! My absolute favorite! These are all books I've finished reading and enjoyed. Some I've even reread two or three times. First, Xia Xiaolan. It's probably my favorite historical romance novel. The female lead is independent and strong, helping her mother escape her terrible family background. Although there are some awful characters who keep popping up, they rarely appear later. The part where the female lead goes south to make money in the stock market is truly captivating. But this is the only non-brainless, non-Mary Sue novel I've ever read. Second, there are three female leads, written from Xiaozhu's perspective. This one doesn't have any particularly awful villains; every supporting character grows and reflects. The novel doesn't portray the female lead as the best in the world, or the supporting characters who are inexplicably jealous of her all meet a bad end. On the contrary, the novel is very heartwarming; the three female leads gain friendship and love in the countryside. You can tell the author is a very gentle person. The third book is the one that got me hooked on historical romance novels where the female lead builds her career. The first time I read it, I found it both funny and satisfying. Watching the female lead build her career was especially enjoyable. Although the ending was a bit weak, it didn't detract from the overall enjoyment of the beginning. The sixth book was the first historical fiction I read on Tomato Bookstore. From then on, I loved reading historical fiction there. This one mostly focuses on the female protagonist's time travel to the 1970s and her family life. It's not a particularly exciting, fast-paced story, lacking the intense focus on career advancement. However, the writing is quite good. The seventh book features a female protagonist who suffers quite a bit in the beginning, but that doesn't hinder her exceptional medical skills. Later, after finding a powerful backer, she becomes incredibly successful, even opening a hospital overseas. The eighth book features a female protagonist who, after being reborn, escapes her scumbag boyfriend from her previous life and gets together with the male protagonist who truly loves her. It's a very heartwarming novel, and the male protagonist treats the female protagonist well. After her rebirth, she gets rid of the awful guy and makes him bring trouble upon himself. The ninth book has a rather interesting "golden finger"—a space that is her modern home, and she can even teleport things through it. The female protagonist later brings her grandfather to the 1970s as well. Overall, I think the plot is quite good. These are all books that I think have solid writing and not too dramatic plots, making them worth rereading.

    The first book had no romantic pairing. A large portion focused on the protagonist's childhood, leading the village children hunting and catching bad guys. Most of her family members were kind; in fact, there weren't many truly awful characters. There was very little description of her later life—work and studies—it felt like she grew up and aged in an instant. I really liked the ending; she retired in a mountain village with her childhood friends. It was a period drama I really enjoyed. The third book was a heartwarming slice-of-life story. There was very little description of the black market, hunting, educated youth, or military region. What I remember most is the food—mostly Northeastern cuisine. The second book had no misunderstandings between the male and female leads. What I remember most is the female lead's career; she was a truly capable and successful career woman. The rest were novels I read before, and I've forgotten a lot of the details, only remembering them from the summaries.

    These three books are all exceptional. The first one is about a female protagonist who transmigrates into a book and raises a child. The second one features a female protagonist who is truly exceptional, and the male protagonist is a regimental commander. The third one features a female protagonist who transmigrates into a novel written by her cousin, and the male protagonist is really good at chatting about everyday things.
