621 The End of the Road for a Female Bank President JuiciModern Romance102k Wordscompleted 754Reads9.3Score124Shelves
Reader note
Recommend the completed novel "The End of the Female President", a workplace novel and high-level strategy. It writes about how female bank president Ma Yuquan went from being an aspiring elite woman with great ambitions, bright eyes, and determined to serve the country through finance. In the face of power and bad capital, she was trapped step by step and lost herself, thus embarking on a dead end in life. The novel has a fast pace, fluent writing, and rich plots. There are many scenes in which the best friend competes for her boyfriend, and the single and elderly heroine secretly gives birth to a child and designs a legal adoption.

647 Collected Works of Cao Wenxuan_bronze Sunflower Cao Wenxuancompleted —Reads9.5Score—Shelves
Reader note
Many of them are books I read when I was in middle school. Now I am becoming more and more confused about life and more and more pessimistic about the known world. A limited outcome has been seen with limited vision. I have always been unwilling to accept my mediocrity. It is difficult for me to accept my mediocrity (or it is difficult for me to accept it at this age), but I don't know what to do. I am afraid of doing things and calculating the gains and losses, so I read these books repeatedly, looking for clues of the existence of passion, just to regain the previous enthusiasm to try anything and dare to try. Perhaps young friends should read more passionate novels and stay sincere. Hope it helps you.

658 The Lost Dream of Covered Bridge (Baidu Library) [USA] Written by Robert James Waller; Translated by Zi Zhongyuncompleted —Reads9.4Score—Shelves
Reader note
The details of these three books are well described, and those written by Zhong Yi will look much more comfortable. The Lost Dream of the Covered Bridge turned out to be a short-lived love, but it left behind eternal regrets. In The Veil, the heroine in it lifts the veil of life from the perspective of the heroine, and she gets a new life. This is a novel about a female protagonist, written around the female protagonist. But you can choose other translations. I think this translation is just average.
