   The first six are dual male protagonists, and the last four are romance novels. I highly recommend 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, and 10. The first one is a BL novel, the protagonist transmigrates into a book and enters the entertainment industry. The second one is a BL novel, a crime drama. The third one is a BL novel, a post-apocalyptic novel. The fourth one is a BL novel, an infinite flow novel. The fifth one is a BL novel, ABOE + forced love. The sixth one is a BL novel, the protagonist transmigrates into a book and enters the entertainment industry. The seventh one is a romance novel, a crime drama. The eighth one is a romance novel with multiple identities (a traditional type of multiple identities). The ninth one is a romance novel, a rebirth novel with multiple identities and entering the entertainment industry (not a traditional rebirth multiple identities novel, highly recommended). The tenth one is a romance novel, a rebirth novel, a transmigration novel with multiple identities (both the female lead and her sister have multiple identities. Later, the male lead and the sister know that she is a reincarnation, but the female lead thinks she is a transmigrator because she has another person's memories. However, due to special reasons, those memories were originally hers. The part where she leaves and her sister reads the letter is really heartbreaking. I won't reveal more plot details).

    The first book is a scheming strategy novel, not a strong female lead story. The female leads are mostly scheming and manipulative, not good people. There's no fixed male lead, and sometimes they lack morals! They're not strong female leads; they mostly pretend to be weak or use cunning to win people over!

You're a foolish, shallow, and vicious female supporting character, jealous of the outstanding, heartthrob female lead, trying to seduce every man connected to her.

    # Highly Recommended for Book Suffering🔥Realistic Era Heroine | "Spring Breeze in Winter" Who understands! Tired of rebirth with golden fingers and mindless face-slapping wish-fulfillment novels? I've found this down-to-earth Shanghai-style entrepreneurial novel! 😭 Set in a Shanghai alleyway in the 1990s, the protagonist, Xu Chunfeng, grew up in the mire of male chauvinism. Her uncle's family constantly exploited her, her mother favored her younger brother, and one hardship after another plagued her family. On the day of her college entrance exam, she missed the exam to save her best friend, shattering her dream of going to university💔 She sadly parted ways with her childhood sweetheart, Li Dongdong, her youthful love defeated by reality. Starting as a saleswoman in a clothing store, she rose step by step into the foreign trade industry; then she encountered her mother being scammed and incurring huge debts, losing all her savings in the financial crisis, and being cheated out of her job by her own uncle, experiencing several setbacks in her life. There were no cheat codes, no lucky breaks, she gritted her teeth and endured all the hardships✨ After awakening, she no longer compromised and tolerated, breaking free from the shackles of her original family. Seizing the opportunities of the times, she and her lover embark on a cross-border e-commerce apparel business. Leveraging the Belt and Road Initiative, they sell Chinese-made clothing overseas, resisting malicious suppression from foreign capital and becoming dazzling female entrepreneurs. The twenty-year love-hate relationship between childhood sweethearts is incredibly touching! The male lead isn't a domineering CEO; he's an ordinary person who grew up following the rules, defying societal norms for love, giving up high-paying jobs and stock options to endure hardship alongside the female lead. Their mutual devotion, long-awaited reunion, and enduring love are anything but artificial. The book depicts the wave of layoffs, alleyway demolitions, the rise of foreign trade, and the internet revolution, brimming with the atmosphere of the era. Family entanglements, reconciliation, female empowerment, and the everyday realities of life are all vividly portrayed. The characters are lively, with both pain and warmth, and the story has a powerful impact! ✅ No rebirth | No system | Realistic | Female growth | Urban entrepreneurship | Historical fiction | Childhood sweethearts reunion Sisters who enjoy reading about ordinary people striving against the tides of time and strong female protagonists building their careers, go for it! #HistoricalRealisticNovel #StrongFemaleProtagonistEntrepreneurship #ChildhoodSweethearts #FemaleAwakening

    If you're looking for something to read, check this out. It's about a refugee, a male protagonist who kills Japanese invaders and traitors. He's decisive and ruthless, doesn't dote on his sister or any other woman, and is all about women, not female leads. He doesn't falter at the sight of women, doesn't become irrational, and doesn't shy away from them. He's a breath of fresh air. He kills anyone who gets in his way, and if his sister becomes an obstacle, he'll even kill her to prove himself. If you like refugee stories and stories with a female protagonist who's a hero, this is a good read. Highly recommended!

    The author's narrative is masterful in its transitions between scenes. The most ingenious aspect is that each chapter is different: one chapter is about survival and turning the tide of battle, while the next might shift to a suspenseful investigation of a monument. The foreshadowing is dense, and the thrilling moments are consistently satisfying.
