    I stumbled into this book-shortage forum by accident, but the real reason I wanted to share my book recommendations is to share some of my reading experiences. My book recommendations aren't meant to scare my classmates; it's just that I'm not very interested in conventional entertainment anymore and want to pursue things that enrich my mind. The first book is *Half-Hour Comics: A History of China*. I'm interested in history myself, and if you're interested in history or historical figures, you should check it out. The author's historical stories are vivid and easy to understand. The gossip is also presented in a lively way. I also recommend that you read the commentary sections, as most of them are written by knowledgeable readers who answer any questions you might have. Overall, the book is quite engaging. I'm a little ashamed to admit I haven't finished it yet. The second book is one I've been consistently reading whenever I have free time since the beginning of 2026, and I finally finished it yesterday. In high school, our teachers required us to read "From the Soil: The Foundations of Chinese Society," but I wasn't interested at all. I couldn't get into it or understand it. Now, I guess I'm older, and I'm gradually able to appreciate these kinds of books. These books also make me think about why I want to join the Communist Youth League and the Communist Party, and why I want to align myself with the Party organization. Reading this book allows me to examine myself. For example, I'm currently just a class monitor, and the "power" of the class monitor is a kind of "power" jointly granted to me by the teacher and classmates. I believe this power is a kind of "power of the times" derived from social phenomena and social development. It's not the "tyrannical power" that exists in American society due to social conflict; nor is it the "power of consent" that arises from social cooperation; nor is it the "power of elders" that arises from social succession. Some might think that the power relationship between the class monitor and the teacher and classmates is "power of consent," because the relationship between the teacher and classmates is one of social cooperation! Students cooperate with the teacher to complete the learning tasks assigned by the teacher; the teacher cooperates with the students to complete their own duties. My thought is this: Although class committee members are also students and belong to the student body, let's first consider them as a separate entity. In ancient times, class committees didn't exist; there were only teachers and students. The teacher-student relationship then can be seen as a social cooperation relationship. Students gained knowledge through cooperation, and teachers earned their living through cooperation. Therefore, the power between teachers and students at that time was "power of consent." However, in today's society, teachers are often overwhelmed with hundreds of students and need assistants. While some students might still view this as a social cooperation relationship, the emergence of class committees is a response to societal development. Class committee members are those who can propose solutions, organize new experiments, and gain the trust of others. Such individuals can command their followers, thus wielding power. This power, derived from the rapid social changes of today, is called "power of the times." Therefore, if someone asks me how to use the power gained by becoming a class committee member? I think I would say, "This is the power of the times bestowed upon me by my teachers and classmates. This power is free from social violence and exploitation; it is not authorized by society, nor is it traditional. It is a power gained through new experiments, earning the trust of my teachers and classmates, and enabling me to command the masses who follow me. In the discipline of probability theory, all events must undergo experimentation. In my view, since this power is obtained through experimentation and by gaining the trust of others, it can be seen as a probabilistic event, and not even a 100% certain one. I am very fortunate to have obtained this power with such a small probability, so I will use this power with a fair and just attitude, and move towards my desired goals under the power of the times." This book also reminded me of some knowledge points related to the basic principles of Marxism while reading it. However, this recommended book is currently a bit too long, so I won't mention the knowledge points and personal insights I could draw upon. Our country's Party organization has the requirement to focus on self-construction. I feel that constantly examining myself is also a small step towards slowly moving closer to the Party organization. I have a new idea now: I'll reread *From the Soil: The Foundations of Chinese Society* when I have time, because I feel I can gain new insights. I almost forgot to mention, the commentaries in *From the Soil: The Foundations of Chinese Society* are also very helpful, and there are many kind friends who can help you read the book better. If any of you have read these two books, please feel free to leave a comment below my post. I will carefully read your reflections, because finding kindred spirits in this vast world is a wonderful thing.
