   Tomato's perspective: Don't judge novels by their ratings!! I just finished the first one a few days ago; it's under 7 points. It's a modern urban crime novel, but in terms of plot, writing style, and logical resolution, it absolutely blows away 90% of Tomato's works!!! The second one just updated to over 300 chapters, which I've already finished. I plan to wait a while before reading it. The first 200 chapters or so are relatively uneventful, but not overly dramatic or awkward. Later on, there will be some clashes of humanity, friendship, and passion. Perhaps the author wants to express this gradual development. Currently, there are over 350 chapters; the protagonist enters the Three Thousand Great Worlds, a much grander worldview, and should have a different experience. I'm quite looking forward to it.

    I've found some good ones out of 1000 books. The first one feels like an autobiographical story but is very interesting (there are 5 chapters with minor cuts). The second one is considered top-tier in the Pacific Rim series, and the story is relatively tight (actually, it's not that great, but it's the only one I can finish reading). The third one has a great start, but it gets padded later on, plus a weak ending (just skim it and don't get too caught up in it).
