    These three books are all by the same author! The author excels at writing stories with a conflicted and bitter female lead and a privileged, arrogant male lead. What I love most is the author's portrayal of the female lead—a character with strong agency who knows what she wants. Also, the author's writing style is impeccable; it's incredibly immersive and realistic, which resonated deeply with me. You simply couldn't stop reading! (This is my first chapter review, book review, and now this recommendation—all dedicated to this author! I urge you all to read them! 🙏🙏) All three are absolutely amazing!

    If you want to cry, read the second book, "The Eighth Year of Snow." The male lead, Chen Yi, rescues the female lead, Lin Shu, from darkness, and they immediately have a better future. However, an illness ruins everything [crying][crying][crying]. The male lead dies, and the female lead, upon learning this, commits suicide for love. Don't let its low rating fool you; it's truly heartbreaking. There's also the fifth book, where the female lead dies at the beginning, jumping from a high building and dying in front of her best friend. This book is about reminiscing about the past, then the misunderstanding is resolved, and the male lead goes mad and dies. The female lead is truly a pity. If she hadn't met the male lead and died, it wouldn't have been her [crying][crying][crying]. The third book, "Childhood Sweethearts," is about innocent love between childhood sweethearts. The beginning is very sweet, but the female lead has been sickly since childhood and dies the night before her 18th birthday ceremony. It's truly heartbreaking [crying][crying][crying]. She didn't even reach adulthood; she knew her days were numbered and silently awaited death. The male protagonist becomes a doctor and dies in his forties. The first book is about the painful little thing of unrequited love. The female protagonist encounters a ray of light in her dark life. She wants to chase this light, studies hard, and becomes an outstanding person to stand by his side, but unfortunately, her unrequited love doesn't come true. That summer has passed, and she has also ushered in her autumn. Their story is like the saying, "Parting ways amicably, each finding their own happiness." The male and female protagonists secretly love each other. The fourth book is also a story about unrequited love. Compared to the first book, the rating is a bit lower, but it's really good. There's a folk legend that if you write your lover's name on a robin's vine, it will bloom and you'll receive a response. This love, like the title, never bloomed. He wrote 897 letters to the male protagonist—such a huge number. Shen Xizhi is a red rose, but Yu Guizhou prefers gardenias.
