   1. Books 13 and 15 are all quite good. 2. Book 7: The first one is interesting and fun to read. The second one has a single female lead and the romance is a bit slow. Also, the author's previous book, *The Thief God*, is quite good. 3. Book 14: I found the first one quite enjoyable. The second one has been summarized in reviews; I think it's alright. 4. Books 5, 12, and 16: These are all game-related fan fiction; you can check them out if you're interested. Although the second one has a slightly old-fashioned plot and the author seems a bit inactive, I think the romance is well-written. 6. Books 8, 9, 10, and 11: I personally found them good. Book 2 is a classic post-apocalyptic story. Book 4 is also quite good, but a word of caution: it's good, but it's very verbose and updates are really slow. I recommend the third book if you like stories with a back room theme. The last one is part of the "Salty Fish" series and is quite good. For the other books, check the author's profile.

However, speaking of superficiality, I'll continue to recommend one of my favorite books on Tomato Books. This book has a certain level of sophistication; the author is very meticulous and rational, incorporating real historical changes into the book. Many people simply don't understand the social science and medical knowledge involved, and if they see that it doesn't have the romantic pairings or domestic drama they want, they give it a low score. But this book is actually the most insightful on Tomato Books. If you don't even understand how constitutional monarchy came about, I'll tell you to turn it off and go watch your female rivalry.

It features business, movie stars, hilarious comedic moments, an ensemble cast, and heartwarming stories of love, friendship, and parental love. Of course, it also includes a villainous female supporting character—a seemingly innocent but ruthless one. The second book is about the making of an ancient empress. The protagonist is a modern 996 workaholic who transmigrates. The female lead is independent and possesses a unique talent for both medicine and poison. The male lead is a crown prince who later becomes emperor. He is a yandere with a mental illness, usually gentle and refined, but suffers from gynophobia.

    A useless prince was appointed as a prince in a poor border county, only to be scared to death by bandits at the start. The protagonist, a powerful being, transmigrates, crushes the bandits' lustful desires with a single groin strike, and with a single command, confiscates everything, laying the foundation for his rise to wealth. Thus begins his carefree life of farming, raising troops, conquering the world, and casually pursuing beautiful women. There's no system involved; the protagonist possesses some medical skills and enjoys reading illustrated manuals. The story is fast-paced, lighthearted, and humorous. Reading it is like a gentle spring breeze, a soothing balm, subtly relieving the day's fatigue.
