   These are the books I personally read and found quite good. The first one mainly focuses on daily life, so those who enjoy slice-of-life stories might enjoy it. The second is about a reincarnation in 1987 who works as a village cook—it's not simplistic or childish. The third is about being reborn into the body of someone wrongfully executed, who initially proves their innocence and is released, then starts trading medicinal herbs, accumulating capital to open a bicycle factory, then a home appliance factory, then a winery, etc. I personally quite liked the fourth one. The fourth is about raising dogs and hunting, described in great detail, and it was through this book that I learned about hunting with dogs.

    This book is incredibly good! [Sparrow's Masterpiece] The female lead starts out making a living by small-scale trading, and the latest plot involves her using scraps of cloth from her father's factory to make hairbands and ties to sell. [Thumbs up] The rating is a bit low because there aren't many reviewers. It mainly depicts the warm daily life of the main family. A major advantage is its excellent sense of the era; this is the most focused on historical setting I've read on Tomato Book [Already hooked]. Prices are reasonable and precise, with prices as low as a few cents or a few tickets. The details are meticulous, and there aren't too many awful items, making it feel like you're truly living in that era. The only downside is the slow pace; there isn't much romance yet. You can read it as a historical romance combined with a farming/farming story.
