   The first three books are by the same author with a super imaginative plot. The male and female leads are deeply in love, and the female lead isn't a naive or innocent character. The second book has a female lead pursuing a male lead who doesn't care at first, but later experiences a dramatic "wife-chasing" moment where the female lead seems like a different person and refuses to forgive him. The fourth book features characters who are all protagonists, and as you read, you realize that everyone has their own unique traits, and you yourself are the protagonist of your own life. Yyds

    These three books are truly my absolute favorites. The first one is a palace intrigue drama. I believe anyone who's seen it knows it's incredibly good, unlike ordinary palace intrigue dramas. It truly refreshed my understanding of the genre; who would have thought that in the eyes of the elders and concubines, the emperor is nothing! This book is complete and has few chapters, perfect for those who want to read but don't want to read too many chapters! Recommendation rating: ☆☆☆☆☆ The second one, to be honest, I didn't skip a single page. I read it from beginning to end, and I even learned to save chapters for this book, enduring long waits to save dozens of chapters, only to finish it in less than half a day. Recommendation rating: ☆☆☆☆☆ The third one is a quick transmigration novel, which is my current favorite. The author is truly skilled! Every time, I feel like I need to remove the "request update" button! The author is also incredibly good at writing without getting stuck, always stopping at the most captivating part!

    Reader note

    These books are absolutely amazing! However, we still need to warn you about some potential pitfalls: 1. This is a female-oriented book; male-oriented readers should avoid it. 2. In the second book, the male lead initially pretends to be the female lead's dog; avoid this book! 3. In the fourth book, the male lead is truly useless and frighteningly naive; avoid this book! 4. In the sixth book, the romance develops incredibly slowly; the female lead's career is prioritized, and the romance doesn't even begin until over 400 chapters later; avoid this book!
