    Books 1 and 7 are cultivation novels with romantic pairings, sweet but not cloying, making them both desirable and enjoyable, and tied for first place in my heart. Book 2 is the number one farming novel; it's both enjoyable and vibrant, and the author's writing is superb. Book 3 is the number one domestic power struggle novel; the female lead is intelligent, calm, and ruthless, with overwhelming female lead charm. The climaxes are numerous, making it impossible to put down, a pinnacle of domestic power struggle novels. Book 4 is the number one novel with a villainous female lead; the female lead is self-serving, ruthless, and almost demonically intelligent, a perfect read for relaxation. Book 5 is the number one novel with a male lead whose charm surpasses that of the female lead; you'll fall in love with the male and female leads after just five chapters. The perfect bickering couple is irresistible, making you want to keep reading and even wish you could open your mouth for the male lead so he wouldn't always be bullied by the female lead. Book 6 is the number one exile novel; the author's writing is excellent and their intelligence is high.

    The first book features a micro-ensemble cast, with the incredibly intelligent and handsome Junior Uncle Lin Du, who's irresistible to both men and women—you should definitely check it out! The second book has a female lead who's extremely cautious, a master of exploitation and profiteering, and possesses unparalleled greed and selfishness. There's no gender antagonism; she equally preys on everyone. The third book... Well, I haven't finished it yet, but I can only say there's some truth to genetics... The female lead's whole family is somewhat selfish, and none of them are particularly unintelligent. The fourth book, once you get through the first dozen or so chapters, is absolutely fantastic! The protagonist is a kind of chaotic order... Still a sophisticated egoist, and the female lead's boss (or business partner) is also incredibly intelligent! The character development is fantastic. The other male and female supporting characters are also very well-developed, creating a truly lovable yet frustrating and realistic feeling.
